DNFMOMD: TOUR! T-18hrs

If you’ve run into Mike or I in the last month (or, if you’re friends with us on any variety of social networks) you’ve undoubtedly been barraged with the fact that we’re headed out on our very first tour! We’re a little bit freaked out, but very excited.  We’ll be blogging extensively and posting to twitter and facebook (so now’s a good time to follow/friend us). We’re very pleased that the beautiful and talented Kelly Davidson has agreed to come along with us to photograph and document all of the trouble we plan on getting into. We’re also bringing along Agent Bishop as our tour manager – I just fielded his 10th inquiry as to whether we’re actually going to come pick him up or if he’ll get left behind – we may have to decide tomorrow!

So, at 12 tomorrow we pick up our rental van. Kelly just dropped off her bags (as we’re picking her up from a shoot in Stamford on our way to our first stop of Brooklyn), we practiced some new songs, and now we’re slowly packing up all of our stuff, and I have to decide how much of the bathroom do I actually need? I think if I could fit the shower, I would bring it. I also bought a bag of rice cakes for the road – so I don’t starve to death! Which brings me to another point, I plan on fully documenting what I eat while on tour, to show how a vegan can get by out in the wild. Some of the cities we’re playing are civilized and have prominent vegan options, but the highway is a whole other story.
So, without further ado, here’s a flyer of me driving away in our tour vehicle and our tour dates!
