So this June my band is going on a 20-or-so day tour of the midwest, and parts of the east coast and the south. And the thing my bandmates hate the most about going on the road with me is that whenever were go, I'm *constantly* out looking for old and interesting movie theaters, trying to fanagle tours of various booths, and basically hunting for things of projectionist interest. It drives them nuts, and this tour will be no exception! So don't be too surprised if we roll through your town and you find me pawing at your projection booth door! [Smile]

Any spots/theaters/etc you guys could recommend that I might find interesting or at least "Shut-Up-And-Stop-The-Van-I-Want-To-Check-This-Place-Out" worthy, please let me know! I don't have a complete schedule of where/when we'll be yet, but so far I know we've got confirmed dates in Buffalo NY, Chicago, IL, Minneapolis MN, Madison WI, Lawrence KS, Tulsa OK, Memphis TN, Nashville TN, Baltimore MD, Philadelphia PA, and NYC.

Hope to see some of you on the road! [beer]

Andrew - What date and place are you playing in New York City?

Are you coming any farther south, than what you stated?

When you get to Lawrence, see if you can find the old Reuter Organ plant where they shot part of "Carnival of Souls." Downtown on the main drag there's a theatre converted for live performances, but I don't remember the name.
