I got a lot of booze for my birthday. I think there's still a Tupperware thing full of Jell-O shots in the fridge somewhere, but tonight I'm working on one of the bottles of jäger. Fdrink!

I mention Song Fight at my shows often. It's a good preface for, well, most of my original material. Listeners definitely take interest in the site and the story, but I don't know how many follow it up with action. I'm a tireless advocate for SF to my local musician friends, too. I think Jeremy Dean...

All things considered, I think New England (at least the way I can comfortably arrange it) is probably better for a smaller Regional event, which I would still like to pursue. My vote goes to Austin.

Happy 40th birthday Heuristics Inc!

I never did figure out that code, man. But I did invest a few notebook pages in the effort.

Roy and I aren't exactly neighbors here in New England. (I should be so lucky. Happy belated birthday Roy!) I live in Plymouth NH, about an hour north of our nearest airport (Manchester). If that is close enough to work, I have a willing venue near my house. The Country Cow (http://www.thecountrycow...

Hi! I love the idea of a New England event, obviously. I host an open mic at a restaurant/bar in Campton NH called The Country Cow. There's a decent-sized function room downstairs, and there's a hotel right across the street. This might work better for a smaller (regional) event, since Campton NH is...

Got my CD today. Wooo!

French Toast - Jim Tyrrell I play a lot of bars and restaurants like this one Sometimes they feed me, sometimes I gotta pay Either way it's a meal, and it's a bad idea to miss one 'Cause who knows what else I'm gonna find along the way And it's a long long road that I follow But if I drive like hell...

In other news, I'm in.

I got most of a song written for this. That's way more than I've done in a long time. Maybe next time.

So I ended up drinking cocktails in times square tonight. Fun! Ready for some beer garden action tomorrow.

In NYC. Beer garden looks amazing.

Six o three - nine six o - o six three six. What's the haps tonite?

Tonight I'm playing a piano show at Giuseppe's in Meredith NH from 6 to 9pm. Then tomorrow morning I'm headed to NYC for Yanks'nBanks. Yay!

Oh, and whenever I play a venue that has wifi (and Giuseppe's does), you can catch the show online at www.thejimtour.com.

I'd prefer to play at the Saturday show; my Sunday travel plans are still up in the air.

When it comes time to put the time slots together, a Saturday slot would work better for me. I might have to hit the road to get home Sunday night. (I will be getting into town sometime Friday, I think.)

I will have an acoustic/electric with me as well. I might also be traveling with a keyboard; not sure if I'm bringing that on tour yet.

Bahaha, my evil plan is revealed!

But seriously. The Kickstarter site has given me a bit of trouble with the backer surveys. I am in the process of contacting everyone individually. You got swag coming, man.

I am offically IN. I'm moving my 'tour' plans up; I'll leave town on Memorial Day, head out on the road for a couple weeks, and make my way back to NYC for this.

I want to go to this. Hell, maybe I can even fit in an honest-to-goodness SF entry between now and then.

So I put together a Kickstarter project, and I got some money to go 'on tour'. I'm gonna do that in September. I don't have a route worked out yet, but I know I'd like to get to Washington state; my brother lives in Leavenworth. So: NH to WA is a northern course, but I know a few people down south t...

Good morning Niv. Hi everybody. I've been MIA due to A) a busy show schedule and B) the theft of a lot of gear from my car, which resulted in the dismantling of my music studio. Things are more or less back to normal now, and it's nice to be back. I'm still working the day job, but I was able to tak...

Ugh. This is so late. And Ross has been good enough to provide a version of this very cover for Generic. But this is what I was working on all those months ago, back when I had a studio. It's finally done, and I hope you like it.
