Get Busy with Me!

Nov 13th, 2008 Posted in Interesting? | no comment »

Forgive me if I don’t write much this morning.

I’m in the middle of five shows in four days!

Plus there’s this ridiculous full-time job thing.

Sometimes, I hope the economy falls so far that travelling around playing songs becomes a sad necessity instead of an office boy’s dream.

“I’ll play a tune called ‘Fatty Arbuckle’ if you have half a raw potato for me. And not a new potato! I’m talkin’ full-size tuber!”

Last night was another mega-fun edition of the Dick Monologues. Our next show of readings and song is scheduled for Sunday, December 14. E-mail spike@spikeg.com to reserve your seat before they’re all gone.

Tonight, I’ll tackle Flipnotics @ the Triangle all by my lonesome. I’ll stand up. I’ll dress up. I’ll play memorized songs. I’ll work to perfect my one-man harmony army. Come say good-bye as I head out for a long two-day tour of DFW.

That’s right, Friday, I’ll play the new Opening Bell Mosaic in Dallas. Saturday, I have an in-store at Bill’s Records before I scoot over to Fort Worth to open for the Asylum Street Spankers! I can’t complain. This is the good kind of busy.

All the show details rest below, in case you want to pass them along to all your friends and acquaintances.
