Super nice crowd! Quirky fun location with a comfortable stage.
We head north this Friday.
But first in the morning GDub and I go to SF to pick up the van from Bandago.com. A one hundred seventy inch long Sprinter will be our home away from home for 10 days. It’s more economical than driving multiple cars and it gets much better gas mileage than other vans.
We hurry back to Mad Ms Central to meet band mates and pack and load everyone’s gear. Then we hustle the 220 miles to Vintage Wine Bar and Restaurant in Redding, CA to play two sets. We are billed as a pre St. Pat’s Day party. You bet! We will be warming up for the big festival the next day
Please tell your friends in Redding that the Mad Ms are coming!

We will be blogging, vlogging, tweeting and generally sharing the fun with you all. So if you like a road trip … and who doesn’t? … be sure and follow our adventures:

Several generous, loyal friends and fans funded our RocketHub project base goal — in less than 5 days — Wow! So we have funds to cover diesel fuel for 2500 miles of driving. Thank You! Thank You!
We still have 13 days to keep funding our project. All monies now will go towards commercial vehicle insurance required for the trip.
Please consider kicking a few bucks our way. $4 is a perfectly fine amount. Seriously. Don’t get all peer-pressured into thinking that you have to match what others have given.
We will reward you with cool goodies. It’s super easy and secure to do here:
This is not a request for a donation. It is an exchange: funds from fans for rewards from us which include merchandise and shout-outs to all our “fuelers” on our website and as we vlog the tour.
You can see where we are touring on our calendar
Money doesn’t talk, it swears!
We have set up a RocketHub project to help fuel, literally, our upcoming tour to the Pacific Northwest. Please consider dropping a few bucks into our virtual tank.
It’s easy to do. Go to our project page at RocketHub to see how.
We give you some very nice rewards. You’ll be supporting live music. And we’ll get the warm fuzzy feeling that people love us and our music.
Thanks to several very generous, loyal friends and fans we have reached 60% of our goal. Hurray!
We will be thanking all our”fuelers” in creative ways when we are on the road and on our website.
You can see what cities we are playing on our calendar.
Thank you for supporting live music!
Wishing you all joy & wonder and plenty of live music as the light returns!
