First Individual Slam

The Voxbox Individual poetry slam champion is Sofia (I got so excited I forgot to ask her how to spell her name! or even her second name!) she narrowly pipped Bram Gieben the current BIGWORD slam champion to the title with Robin Cairns and Nick Melville making it to the semis.
A good turnout and a fantastic pereformance from Sofia who we'll be seeing at a future Voxbox in a paid guest spot. The new knockout system had teething problems but was good fun. Nothing that can't be fixed.
