Collins is something. I remember a great reading/show on kqed, he is incredible...

I agree. Great concept, but really a very lackluster performance of a fairly bland piece, and no particularly good timing on display.
You know who's got truly fine timing as a poetry reader? Billy Collins. You may love or hate his poems, but he performs them with masterful comic timing.

I agree with the timing, agree with the idea, agree with so many things, but then, I find this performance quite cold and detached, dunno.. I had already seen it somewhere before.
