Hello all,

There are two upcoming shows that I'd like to inform you about.  Both promise to be memorable musical experiences.

Jane et al.'s sound is synth and string driven and melodic; her voice is very delicate and pretty.  My slower more melancholy songs should be a nice complement to her stuff (though there will be plenty of Eastern European singalongs).

Neutral Milk Hotel Tribute Show!!!  A bunch of us are coordinating a NMH tribute night for the TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY of "In the aeroplane over the sea".  Performers will be playing a song each off of the album in album-order.  There will be much collaboration involving many instruments (accordions, horns, drums, shakers, glocks, etc.).  The current (though still somewhat tentative) line-up is as follows:

1. King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 1 - Played by Engine (www.myspace.com/engine1926)

2. King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 2 and 3 - Played by Sam Allen (www.myspace.com/samuelmusical)

3. In The Aeroplane Over the Sea - Played by Olenka (http://www.myspace.com/alexandrakrakus)

4. Two Headed Boy Pt. 1 - Played By Birdsacrosswater (www.myspace.com/birdsacrosswater)

5. The Fool - Played by The Collective

6. Holland 1945 - Played by Sick Friend (www.myspace.com/sickfriendmusic)

7. Communist Daughter - Played by Harvest Chant (www.myspace.com/harvestchant)

8. Oh Comely - played by a lending library (www.myspace.com/alendinglibrary)

9. Ghost - Played by A Horse and His Boy (www.myspace.com/ahahb)

10. Untitled - Played by The Collective

11. Two Headed Boy Pt. 2 - Played by Donnie Ivey (www.myspace.com/donnieivey)

Following the album, there will be more songs off of other releases, more collaboration, and general merriment.
