"We have dragged poetry kicking and screaming into the 21st Century" says Dan Cockrill; "The night is a rollercoaster of emotion. It's loud and raucous, as political as it's trivial as serious as it's funny," says Martin Galton, "it's like a rabid poetry mongrel and we have captured the best of that and put it in the book."; "Bang Said The Gun is a vortex of energy and enthusiasm" Andrew Motion.; "Like all the best things in life, Bang Said The Gun is done with commitment, belief and passion, and Mud Wrestling With Words is written proof." Phil Jupitus.; "The death of poetry." Oxford University
