National Cowboy Poetry Gathering
About National Cowboy Poetry Gathering
The Cowboy Poetry Gathering started out in January 1985, when a small organization of folklorists and poets congregated to proportion their paintings. It’s developed into an the world over renowned event regarded as the “most honest and open hearted pageant in America.” According to cowboy poet pupil David Stanley, cowboy poetry started while submit-Civil War path drivers combined conventional British balladry with the shape of classic Victorian poetry, using those nicelyworn lyric traditions to form their own realexistence experiences at the path with a small quantity of hyperbole, of path. As Stanley says, “Cowboys are excellent readers,” and their poetry is a way of processing the entirety they take in, on the path and in life.
You get the real deal on the Cowboy Poetry Gathering: cowboys who live the lifestyles and have the verses to inform it. Over the course of the week, you’ll discover pickers ’n’ grinners, bluegrass orchestras and proper ol’ long-established storytellers holed up in every available rectangular inch of Elko. Past performances encompass the active western swing of The Saddle Cats, Al Simmons’s one-man prop show and Cowboy Celtic, presenting a poet who is the “Yo Yo Ma of mandolin gamers.” There’s something for everyone, and whilst you’re geared up to explore past the boundaries of the collection, Elko gives plenty of easy, unadorned frontier beauty.
