Hello all.
I'm trying to book a US tour and I was wondering if you knowledgeable dudes might be able to help me get a few things set up so that I can feel more confident about booking my flights. I realise this isn't especially Mount Eerie related, but Phil's music has always been an influence on me. My first ever solo show was opening up for the Microphones when I set up a gig for him in my village hall. Heady days...
Anyway, there follows a long list of places. If any of you guys put on shows in (or near) any of these towns and think you might be able to help, I would be totally stoked to hear from you. Or if you know some helpful kids who might be able to set me up, I'd be grateful for any contacts or suggestions you can pass on. I'm up for playing house shows, galleries, cafes, outdoor shows, bowling alleys, old abandoned mines, whatever. Bars if needs be, though I’m trying to avoid 21+ places where possible. You can post on here or e-mail me at hughjnoble@hotmail.com
Here goes:
Boston, MA
Providence, RI
New York, NY
Philadelphia, PA
Harrisburg, PA; Elizabethtown, PA; Hershey, PA; Lancaster, PA; Strinestown, PA (?)
Pittsburgh, PA
Youngstown, OH*
Toledo, OH*
Ypsilanti, MI*
Kalamazoo, MI
Chicago, IL
Bloomington, IL; Macomb, IL; Dectaur, IL; Champaign, IL; Bloomington, IN(?)
St Louis, MO
Columbia, MO*
Kansas City, MO; Lawrence, KS
Manhattan, KS
Hays, KS
Denver, CO
Grand Junction, CO
Salt Lake City, UT
Boise, ID; Nampa, ID
Walla Walla, WA
Bellingham, WA; Port Townsend, WA
Seattle, WA
Olympia, WA
Portland, OR
Corvallis, OR*
Eugene, OR
Eureka, CA; Arcata, CA
Davis, CA; Sacramento, CA;
San Francisco, CA ; Oakland, CA; Berkeley, CA
San Luis Obispo, CA; Santa Barbara, CA; Isla Vista, CA
Los Angeles, CA
Irvine, CA*
... then I might even try and play some other places if I'm not bankrupt or dead. But that's a start. I've marked with a * places where I already have shows (more or less) confirmed. I'm planning to play in Boston on the 23rd of September and then wind up in Southern California around the end of October. And I can alter the route a bit to take in YOUR town if you like. I'm also interested in hearing from you if you want to join forces for a bit of the tour, if you want to do some driving for me or if you have a bed/sofa/floor I can sleep on.
Phew. Well, if you're curious about my music, you can hear some over at www.myspace.com/hughjnoble
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!
Hugh
