Howdy Haunts!
Time is ticking before we hightail it to the southwest on Tuesday!
I’ve been meaning to do a stream before we left, alas, time is moot for such things. But do expect a bunch of fun documentation and road journals when we’re at! So in lieu of no stream, I thought I’d share with you a recent rehearsal video I shot of myself racing through my tour set. Mary was working in Portland this working so this is just me. She adds so much to the set via vocals, percussion, guitar that I can’t wait to share what it looks like fully!
The set also includes a straightforward PJ HARVEY cover, and a weirdo take on a TOM WAITS classic…
To bulk up for the tour I’ve been documenting my rehearsals. Jumping in and playing as if it were an actual live set. The setlist is all out of order, as I was attempting to go with feel instead of my rigid setlist. Also, my work boots were terrible for foot drumming! Mistakes are made, sonics aren’t quite fully realized, but this is a prime testament of what the set is going to look/sound like from my hands and feet.
Your continuing support has severely helped me each month and I am so deeply grateful you stick around for all my goofjuice. There was a recent financial hiccup that came out of nowhere and I can’t tell you enough how your contributions have come so deeply in handy! We also started a spotfund for folks to help support this ramshackle tour.
I hope you enjoy / dig this rehearsal video and can use your imagination to fill in the blanks of Mary’s accompaniment, and my better playing, until we share tour videos!
See you on the road. Until then… HAUNT ON!
