[HeyJude]

Please of course let us all know if you see any additional shows/bookings popping up in your area. I don't know how much some of these types of shows might fly under the radar.

I also hope the shows are successful enough that Al might be able to book some small theaters as well.

[HeyJude]

Al's been rehearsing for awhile for this tour, I think they may be ready for the show:

[Juice Brohnston]

Good on Al! I like the concept, and hope he can get this thing into many markets.

[Needleinthehay]

I live in phoenix area, so am pumped I'll get to go...I'll try and leave some sort of review the same night.

[HeyJude]

We're eleven days out from this tour. How many folks here are going to attend any of these shows?

[RubberSoul13]

I wouldn't call this a tour anymore...I doubt we'll see anymore dates this year seeing as Pet Sounds is plowing through a third year.

[KDS]

New show added.  Tues March 27.  Rams Head On Stage.  Annapolis, MD

[HeyJude]

I was seriously going to say this before the March MD date was announced; I think Al could book more shows prior to the May PS shows. We also don't know how extensive Brian's 2018 dates are going to be. It's pretty much just May dates on the schedule right now.

[B.E.]

Heading in the right direction!

[RubberSoul13]

WELL! I've never been happier to be wrong! 

I hope I can work this out...I have my night class that evening. Ugh. Why'd it have to be a Tuesday!? That's the ONLY night I have classes for my final semester.

[Tony S]

Come on Al, a little further up the Eastern Seaboard to Red Bank and the Two Rivers theater.

[RubberSoul13]

Not sure what to do yet...having a hard time finding someone to go with, and the date sucks. I'd like to think that if he's coming all the way to the east coast, it would be for more than one show...

[KDS]

I'm having a similar issue unfortunately.  I said that Rams Head would be a perfect venue, and after hoping on the slim chance for a show to be added there, I might not be able to attend.

My scheduling issue has been resolved, and I was able to get a pair of tickets pretty close to the stage. 

[RubberSoul13]

A friend of mine got a pair of tickets...one of which I hope to God I can use should I be able to get out of class that week. We're right in front of the stage. We'll have to finally meet up, KDS, if I make it! Semester starts in a little less than two weeks and I'll know then.

I hope it works out. 

Since it's such a small venue, sometimes artists will come out and sign autographs after the shows.   I'm still kicking myself for not going toward the bus to meet Al in Rockville in 2015. 

At Rams Head, I've been able to meet Mark Farner of Grand Funk, Jim McCarty & Chris Dreja from The Yardbirds, Eric Bloom from Blue Oyster Cult, and Glenn Hughes.

He just announced a show at City Winery in Atlanta. March 26th.

[HeyJude]

Also Plymouth, NH on March 29.

[HeyJude]

I was curious if Al and Matt would be augmented by any other musicians. Matt Jardine has mentioned on Facebook that they have a third player, Jeff Alan Ross. Matt mentioned they've just done "intense" rehearsals in AZ.

This is sounding quite promising.

[Emdeeh]

An Atlanta gig -- yes! Anybody know when public tickets go on sale?

[RubberSoul13]

This is excellent! Wonder if they'll squeeze a NJ or NY date in between MD & NH?

Thursday at 3pm, according to an email I got from the venue.

Here's hoping! We have a City Winery in NYC too... just sayin'.
