It's that time of year, time for a tour. After spending much of last year on tour with the Almost Heaven show, and then being home, I'm ready to go out again. I guess I'm not a homebody after all!
This time, Vita and I are going to do a fiddle/guitar West Coast Tour- Seattle, Tacoma, Portland and Bellevue WA.
It's funny getting ready for these things, but it's sort of like going on a first date.
You're introducing yourself to new audiences and you have to decide what part of you or in this case what part of your show, you'd like them to see....
So for me it means looking through all the music sets we do and deciding what is "the perfect set" for each show, and what tunes to leave out...
It means figuring out what you're going to say, or in this case mention on stage.
Just like a date, the stuff you're not supposed to bring up right away like how you come from a family of psychos and want to get married TOMORROW (not really!).
and of course there is always the question of what to wear (especially when your guitar player is a French fashion plate).
We'll figure it all out eventually (hopefully before the tour) and it's going to be a lot of fun.
