Event & Tour Dates

When you’re a kid growing up in the 80s you’re subjected to all kinds of abuse––such as Knight Rider, skinny leather ties, and 80s metal. Unfortunately, I was not spared these indignities. In fact, I think I still have a collection of black concert t-shirts from the Scorpions, Ratt and Van Halen as proof of this abuse.

So to commemorate my own folly, I’ve designed a limited edition Bittersweet Tour ’09 t-shirt, certain to draw jealous glances or at least bored and confused looks from your friends and neighbors. I’ll be giving them away on tour, as well as bittersweet chocolate from Recchiuti. (That’s okay, I can’t pronounce it either).

And while we’re at it, check out this video of a very cool book event.
