West Coast House Show Tour

Hello Good Friends!

Anders Parker and Will Johnson (Centro-Matic) will be playing in living rooms on the west coast this fall. This will be a totally acoustic (no sound system) tour hosted by fans in their homes.

We need your help! We are looking for people to host shows on these dates in or near these cities.

Please get in touch if you want to host a show. We'll make this as easy as possible for the hosts. All you have to do is let us borrow your living room for a couple of hours and in return you'll get 6 free tickets for friends and our eternal gratitude.

Here's how it works.

1. You have a house or loft space that can comfortably and safely host 30-40 people. A place with a big living room, finished basement or other indoor residential space would be ideal. There would need to be enough parking nearby and your neighbors should be cool. It would be a huge bummer if someone called the cops because of all the extra cars and people coming to your house. You probably should not do this if you live in a small apartment with a bunch of uptight neighbors or a cranky landlord.

2. The shows will not be open to the public and no tickets will be sold at the door. We will pre-sell a set number of tickets for each show on our website before the show. Be realistic on how many people your place can hold. We need to know how many tickets we can sell in advance. Ticket prices will be $20.

3. We will provide you with a detailed list of everyone who will be coming to the show. This way the host won't have to deal with money and will only need to check people off the list as they arrive.

4. The host can have 6 free tickets for the show. If you have other friends who want to come to the show you can direct them to the link to buy tickets on-line.

5. The shows usually start at around 8pm. We'll ask people to arrive around 7:30pm. It should be over by around 9:30pm. We'll make it clear to everyone that they should be out of your house by 10pm.

7. You don't need to provide any sort of sound system. All you need is a couple of chairs for Will and Anders to sit on while playing. A small coffee table with a lamp or a floor lamp would be cool too.

8. Your home address will not be published on the web and only given to those people who purchase tickets.

9. The shows will not be promoted or advertised anywhere except our websites.

10. After we agree on a date and location we'll ask you to sign a simple performance agreement.

After reading all of this and you are interested please send an e-mail to: bob@undertowmusic.com and adam@undertowmusic.com

Please include a photo of the space where you would like to have the show and put "Johnson / Parker House Show" and the city where you live in the subject line of the e-mail.

We'll review all requests. Once we have a routing figured out we'll be in touch with people in the towns we are able to work into the schedule.

Thank you for your interest and support.

Creston Guitars in blogosphere
Wormwood makes the cut

My buddy Creston makes guitars... Guitars that verge on and veer into high-art, if you ask me. He's made me a three (check the gear page for proof). My favorite, "Wormwood", was made from a piece of wood that I pulled out the barn from my family home where I grew up in LaGrange, NY. The barn was built in the 1850s. SInce then he's built a number of guitars from the same wood and those guitars are scattered in the wind, far and wide...

The folks on the intwerweb have been taking notice. Check it out HERE

Wormwood makes the cut
