I just got hired to be the LD for Moonalice which features G.E. Smith, Barry Sless, Pete Sears, Roger and Ann McNamee and Jimmy Sanchez.

I will be working the following shows for sure and if things work out I was told this can turn into a longterm gig.

04/15/08    The Jewish Mother    Virginia Beach, VA
04/16/08    The 8x10    Baltimore, MD
04/17/08    Sellersville Theater    Sellersville, PA
04/18/08    Mr. Small\'s Funhouse    Millvale, PA    Co-Bill w/Ekoostik Hookah

I will not be working the gigs they open for TLG as Alan will just run both acts.

Yes, but you know leith did fail to mention the "other" member of the band who is a bigger name than all of them put together: Yggdrassil Moonalice aka Jack Casady. Doesn\'t always play live though, but with luck...

Hope you enjoy it, leith. The shows I\'ve heard, they sound pretty damn good.

Thanks for the optimistic thoughts Andy. I just got an email from Pat our tour manager with this heading:
MOONALICE SPRING ?08, JACK IS BACK TOUR.

**** stoked!!!

You jammy bastard!! Trust you to pick the tour with Jack on board!

Now, you couldn\'t persuade them to tour the UK, could you!!

Come on out. That would be cool.
I have already given thought about flying from CT. The 19th is in NYC supporting TLG at The Highline Ballroom which I would like to see so it may just happen.
