This blog:
Documenting highlights from our ridiculously impractical, often magical, sometimes heartbreaking life on the road. Since this is a public forum, I will probably focus more on the magic, and less on our moments of despair. Well, unless there is a cathartic lesson I am compelled to share.
This is also a place where I can share links to cool things/bands/places I discover on the road and in my wonderful home town.

Hi Ami,
I’m a big fan of MTP. Still waiting for the tour that brings you to Philadelphia (now that The Spankers have retired from the road.)

Hey! We heard some of your strumming or those influenced near the Wedge not long ago. We have an event coming soon and we would like for you to join us! It’s in the River Arts District and we have some free Wedge beer and Roots humus! Check the blog or send us an email and we can reply with an attached pdf concerning the event. I (Sean-Director of RSG) personally had an incredible experience with ukulele in Chicago back in May. Thanks for yall’s efforts and beingness.
I’m in a social network for Jimmy Buffett fans as well… and, it’s called Meet The Phlockers (or MTP), isn’t that funny? You have the same initials Mad Tea Party. You should check them out, there’s allot of good bands on there, celebs like Indira hang out there too, lots of good chats going on. If you’re stuck in plane that has internet, and have some time to kill, check it out. Peace, ya’all…
