Great show at the Town Crier last night. Will you be posting your fall song. I think I remember it called light the fire? Thanks for a great show as always.
Totally agree with Elisa! And along those lines, for anyone with an interest in a singer-songwriter's often humorous yet poignant travel memoir, I strongly recommend Garnet Rogers' Night Drive: Travels With My Brother.
My wife is still mortified by the ring (hedwigs theme from Harry Potter- our daughter calling for no damn reason at all). And btw, she had the Mozart ball for balloon man too. Just amazing shows Richard. Looking forward to seeing you and Lucy next week
Wonderful show in Beacon last night. We were just telling our daughter how you couldn’t quite figure out what everyone in the crowd was saying about the cat distribution system until you had them reiterate “yes, that’s how it starts.”
I don’t think we passed any of the Super Ego truck fleet on the way south to Brooklyn, but will keep an eye out for them from now on.
I KNOW what you mean about I-84, and I avoid it like the plague (current or ancient).
If not for the incessant, any time day or night logjams around the bigger towns, than for having to pass by that Sandy Hook road sign. :( :(
Do you know which instruments old Quacky Duck band member (founder??) Dave Mansfield is going to be schlepping to the gigs he is backing up with yourself and Lucy??
"Next Best Western" with a pedal steel backup would sound GREAT! ;)
Richard, I saw your show at Club Passim on Thursday (the one where the ringtone went off during Transit). It was a wonderful show, and I loved hearing the new songs. I hope the rest of the tour goes well. Safe travels on the roads - half of the drivers are "clearly impaired."
We spoke when you last played Greystones in Sheffield. I can understand you stocking up on favourites when living abroad. For me it was Captain Scott's Extra Strong English Tea, Vintage Cheddar and Branston Pickle. You may already know but you can get Coleman's in powder form in a tin. Lasts ages and much easier to transport. I used to carry around a bottle of Worcester sauce with me tp spice up bland food when travelling as well as this brand of anchovy sauce. https://www.geowatkins.com/
So cool to read you’re happy and engaged! I can not wait till next Sunday. Welcome back. The last time we spoke SXSW had just announced it’s cancellation... you migrated and promised you weren’t leaving forever. Break a leg, Richard.
I love the BBC’s shipping forecast! Also great to hear about your road experiences. Looking forward to seeing you on Friday! Welcome back!

Found it 😀
You're funny! I'd read your travel book for sure. Like Blue Highways, but with open tunings. Safe travels.

Garnet Roger's book is quite a good read. He is also a great performer, super talented guitar player-- go see him when you can!
Garnet's book is great. I just got his novel too.

Please tell her it's fine. It was fun. Really.
Thank you Richard, it was fun NOT being the troublemaker for once
Please come down south! Wilmington, NC to be precise!
Joyzee as well!
Hopewell Theater is a great venue, Lucy played there not too long ago.
Another Wilmington fan? I'm headed up to the Tarrytown and Northampton shows next week!
I’m jealous!
You may not remember, but our Cry3 tourbus was chartered through a company called Ego Trips.
I had forgotten. But how perfect!

Loved seeing you at the Towne Crier last night. Thank you for playing two of my favorites- Gethsemani Goodbye and Balloon Man.
“a train wreck wrapped in a fiasco wrapped in a perfectly lovely evening”. - Sounds very tasty and satisfying. Enjoy the rest of your shows :)
You sound so good here, hope you are doing well!

You may have a stationery problem, but there’s nothing stationary about it. You got me wondering what I’d have to take home. Sadly, Duke’s mayonnaise.
That’s a perfectly reasonable choice.
My stationary problem isn't going anywhere.
