1) Hey, so, along with the Porridge Radio dates in the Midwest, Rin Hart (pictured here) and I are doing some tour dates in San Diego. Announcement on that and the Portland show in a few. 

2) Maybe you heard that I'm announcing preorder for my next book on Friday?

3) I just woke up.

4) It's raining.

5) I'm taking it easy today. 

6) Do you guys like Goethe?

7) Anyone have a spot to do a reading/chill show in KCMO, KCK, or Lawrence, KS on Sept 3rd, 4th, or 5th? It would be me playing quiet acoustic talking songs, Nathaniel Kennon Perkins and Dmitry Samarov reading fiction, and maybe you or someone you're friends with reading or playing music?

Slightly stormy in #LawrenceKS Friday afternoon.

Pizza Party! It’s our annual Pizza Party! Order today to receive your Individual Baby Stuffed Chicago-style Pizza delivered 2/10-2/17. We are a social business that commits part of resources to our community. At A Yogi Kitchen and Pantry we feel strongly about food, community, health and healing so our energy goes to feeding people, distributing groceries and necessities, teaching community yoga by donation and supporting community organizations with similar values. You are helping us raise funds to keep doing that. We need gas in our cars to deliver groceries to families with transportation barriers, to collect and distribute coats and blankets in conjunction with @thesunriseproject and to contour making yoga accessible to all in our community. When you order pizza from us today, we’ll make one for someone who might not eat today. The week of 2/20, we’ll be walking Mass Street handing out pizzas and driving them to families we serve. This fundraiser is part of our service and commitment meant to our community. Seva, means serving from the heart and February is all about heart! All links in the bio. Join our Pizza Party or make a donation on the website. #ease #seva #love #service #community #connection #pizza #chicagostylepizza #chicagopizza #ayogikitchen #sunriseproject #socialenterprise #fundraiser #lfk #kansas #lawrenceks #lawrence (at Lawrence, Kansas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoZ7qARu3RA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Alright ya'll, I'll be sneaking in and out of my old stomping grounds of Lawrence Kansas and Kansas City this week to see family and friends and maybe snag a record or two. I spent so much time (and money) and @lovegardensounds back in the day, but the KC scene sure has seemed to evolve a LOT in the decade since I called it home. I've only got time to hit a few places so you tell me, which stores are worth checking out? Tag em in the comments and I'll try to stop by! #lawrence #lawrenceks #lfk #kansas #kansascity #kck #kcmo #kcvinyl #kcrecords #vinyl #vinyladdict #vinyljunkie #onmyturntable #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinyligclub #vinyllovers #vinylclub #vinylrecords #vinylcollectionpost #lp #records #vinylexams #record #midwestmusic #midwestvinyl (at Kansas City, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzZSX-2JXcG/?igshid=nlmnon5awfa3

When people ask me what's good in Kansas I always lead off with Wonder Fair because I believe it's the antithesis of all that is bad about this part of the world, particularly in these surreally fucked up times.

This nice Good Reads review of my new book, After Tonight, Everything Will Be Different, mentions Wonder Fair and that made me really happy.

Get the book there if you're nearby or from my shop.

I want you to read this book.

It takes place ages ago, but it's my statement (though subtle) on how things are now.

It's very much a reaction to isolation, division, hopelessness, and displacement.

I drove to Lawrence, Kansas with my friend Spencer & we seen Converge, The Red Chord, Baroness, and Genghis Tron at The Bottleneck. Show was unreal. 

Nice #sunset view from The #UniversityOfKansas #KU in #LawrenceKS. #RockChalk
