Getting ready to head down to the Bluebird Cafe I. Nashville, for opening night of the as yet un-named tour.
(The complete list of dates are here at “gigs” on the site menu ticket links and all…)
How about the Farewell To the First Post-Human Era Tour?
Or the WHERE WE GOING PROJECT TOUR?
How about a “Do The Right Thing tour?
Anyhow I’m at my friends pad in. Nashville watching his little dog Ace, who is 16 years old, play energetically with a stuffed rabbit toy…good boy.
We getting ready to drop, and I mean DROP, three individual releases on Bandcamp of demos and experimental projects etc… Tom Gulotta of Reelin’ In the Years is in charge of this, and it’s been pretty far out opening the vault of my old demos and finding songs and performances I’d somehow forgotten all about in the ongoing upheaval which has been my life as a singer over the years.
It’s far out and info will be available here and on Bandcamp. Soon, not sure when but soon, the wheels are turning.
Anyhow gotta go pick up Sid Griffin at his music row hotel…
How about the “I’VE GOT THE END OF THE WORLD ON A STRING TOUR?!”
That’s it…

Great to see you again Peter! Had a wonderful time at the Bluebird! It occurred to me that you are becoming a captivating and hilarious storyteller, without singing or playing. A whole different show, mixed in with the songs. Your lifetime of struggling, living your art and expressing the truth shines out.
I forgot to ask you- on the song Baltimore, was that a true story? Did you really get beat up there? Powerful song!
The passing of the great actor Gene Hackman, a huge favorite of mine, made me think, in a weird way, that you are kind of the Gene Hackman of Folk music. Meaning he was always compelling and fascinating to watch, and his art and presence always rang true. Hope your tour runs smoothly. It was great meeting Sid Griffin.
Safe travels to you and Sid, Peter. Looking forward to the releases on Bandcamp! Especially anything dubbed “experimental.” Cheers.
I cannot believe I missed you. I had it written in my calendar and everything.
I hope your gig was fab, and that your travels are going well.
Much love from your forgetful fellow April Fool
