I agree (unsurprisingly) with esart. I have never been a fan of hearing poems read by the writer, and even less so by someone else (hello Harry Dean Stanton, Tom Waits and Bono, and fuck you very much for that).
To me, reading is meant to be done in your head, looking at the words on the paper. Hearing someone read makes me sleepy. Even when beer bottles are being thrown around the room.
