First up was Poet Dee who performed the poignant piece, "I Have Dream."
Tiffany was up next who attempted (and we do stress attempted) to perform SWV's "Weak." She did preface before she performed that she was bit tipsy.
One of her party crew walked up toward the stage to show support,. Both were celebrating the b-day of one of their friends.
Hip hop artist K.D. was up next.
Poet Xplicit got the crowd to pay attention with his animated performances of relationship-based haiku and self promotion of his CD within his poem.
Newbie singer Anna Gross sang Anita Baker's "You Bring me Joy."
McDs R&B/soul search winner Katrina Reece performed Chrisette Michelle's "Blame it on me." she also performed after the event's intermission.
Cincinnati native Laura Wise travelled to the STL to perform that nite.

Kansas City group Banger Boiz preformed an original song, "Take it to the Floor."

Intermission time and boogie time.
Err one gettin it in!
....all over the spot!
Meanwhile, during the intermission, OUTCAM got in a pic of the Posts's Pop Critic Kevin Johnson, guest, Posts' Fashion Editor Debra Bass and socialite Vincent Flewelyn.
AND
Cafe Soul co-creator Nichol Stevenson with STL native singer Lynne Fiddmont and photographer Dr. Pam Jackson. Fiddmont was in town for a concert the following nite at the Sheldon.
Meanwhile back on the floor, folk were dropping it like it was not. LOL
T and T. There's half of T and J, Miss T with singer Tiffany Fields.
The highlight as always at Cafe Soul was saxophonist Rhoda G who performed who holds the last looooooooooooooooooooong note and...
Folk throw dollaz on stage.
Morris helps pick up the ends for Rhoda.
"Can you escort me from the stage? Don't eed anyone tryin to steal my cheese." LOL
Before we left we snapped singer/guitarist Blu who performed her hilarious sng, "Bitch Didnt I Tell You." Joining her is poet Roert Dillard (pink shirt) and other singers.
NOTE: Overall the night was great (and packed). Great comaradarie and fellowship. The talent was OK. There were some hits and misses, but it was a fun time. Just wish the crowd in back could be more attentive and respctful of poets who performed (but Explict got em quiet so go figure) In the house were actor Chuck Flowers, singers Jamie Spencer (who performed later that nite), Curtis , designer Tiffany Balton, and broker Roger Macon.
