Dear Friends:
Hello!
How are you?
Great I hope!
I just finished playing a million shows, with 32 regional and touring musicians or poets in 19 cities, all across the US, all DIY, coordinated and performed on my own, by my lonesome.. It was amazing!!!! It was however, really only possible through the kindness of people like you, who either bought albums from me
directly, online, or paid for a ticket into the door of a show in some
far off town.
What’s great is that I’m about to go on tour again, this time opening
for the amazing Anni Rossi, through different cities and spaces!
If everyone on this list donates 5$ to the online fund I have set up –
I will be able to travel in my tour-mobile with the comforts of
safety, gas, and food all on my side. I can tell you that honestly
every cent makes a difference, as on the last tour there were moments
that I did not think I would make it to the next show and someone came
through with a gift that made it possible to do something as simple as
put gas in the car or make a new supply of CDs for merchandise.
Thank you very much for your love, friendship, and continued support.
As an emblem my appreciation to you, for your kindness and magic, here
is a free download of an improvised performance from Lansing, MI, —
given to you in the hope of an exchanged magic between us.
And to see evidence of the last tour in pictures, in a visual
physicality, take a look here. I have included with this photo set a list of
Tour “Bests” and “Worsts”, and “Most Awkwards”, and “Most Surprisingly Pleasants” which you might find amusing…
