February 18th, Oklahoma


In freezing cold Oklahoma City where everything is closed because of the Artic blast, and on the way to even colder Nebraska. How's the weather in SoCal?

In my bunk on the tour bus now, above Nick Beggs and across from Howard Jones. We have a midnight departure from Oklahoma City where we spent the day in a lovely hotel. Tomorrow night - Wednesday - we'll be in Omaha playing the Steelhouse.

February 21st, 2025 - Nashville, Indiana - Brown Country Music Center


While the weather is cold in Indiana - Tonight's show is getting off to a great start here in Nashville, Indiana. Maybe the biggest meet and greet so far, and so many people had copies of my books to sign. It really means so much to me to be able to say hi and thank them for taking the time to come out.


I had so much fun tonight here in Nashville, IND at the Brown County Music Center. The audience was fantastic, and for my first set I just did a 45 minute stand up, taking questions and telling stories, and played no music, and the time flew by. Really special.




Another incredible show as the tour heads toward the East Coast and Washington, New Haven, Boston, Brooklyn, and finally Philadelphia. Don't miss it if we're close to you. Click here for information
