I love seeing a tour routed this cleanly :)

 

This tour will be a mix of The Body Show, where Marcela gets trapped in someone body at a Seedy Fistf$%^ party with only the aid of The Sexplorer's to get her out , as well as a lot of "best of" skits from the last year, and of course some "highlight the band" stuff too)

 

If you are in or around any of these areas, stop out for a entertaining and crazy time!!! (regardless if it's during my part of the tour). Say hi and let's have a beer. There will be about 20 of us traveling in the Super Happy Funtime Express (a GIANT bus) and shows will include local burlesques shows, national circus acts (acrobatics and magicians and comedians)...as well as the daring and revealing cast of SHFB and lets not forget the always digging-deep sounds of The End Time Orchestra.

 

Maybe we'll see you.

You're a sad, twisted, little man.

Take out the 'sad' and "little' and you got it :p

 

No Seattle, we did the West Coast last tour. This one will turn inward. The next will probably have us heading towards the East Coast. Then I would assume that would lead us to a cross nation tour after that once cross country connections are made. It takes time and A LOT of money carting around a 20 person entourage so we do what we can with everyone's schedules and how much money we can raise at once through fundraisers, and in the mean time we seal up a bunch of new fans and connections.

 

Ok, VH.

I can't believe you passed up Austin. That kind of thing would have been HUGE here....and I could have made the 2 hour trip to meet you in person. I could see it in a place like Esther's Follies.

It is what it is. But yes, Austin would be a riot!!!

 

I used to play Austin all the time in the 80's. We played a TX circuit called Cardie's. There was on in Austin, Houston, Pasadena, and Beaumont. Each fall we would leave MI for an extended summer tour of the south. We'd play pretty much all the southern states but when we hit TX it was Cardie's all the way (except for some other club in Dallas which I can't remember the name). We did this each year for about 4-5 years and we'd be on the road for about 4-6 months depending on the schedule.

 

You ever hear of Cardie's?

No I haven't heard of Cardies...is it on 6th Street? I'm not native to Texas, only been here about 15 years but visited 6th like 5-6 times, and attending things like the ACL festival, etc.

 

I wonder if its still there anymore....course we still have places like Antones...

 

Austin would seem like a natural fit, but it looks like you have your cites locked in tight on this schedule....

Yeah I'm sure Cardies is long gone. Austin would've been 85,86, and maybe 87. Huge RnR clubs though. Fun times back before the drugs and sex started killing people in large numbers ;)
