November update: Album pre-order, OH, CT and NYC shows

Hey folks -

The album is off to the printer! Can’t quite believe it yet. We’re almost there. We’re taking advance orders for it as of tomorrow, November 5th at jannklose.com You can also pre-order at our tour dates this week and we’ll send out copies on or after November 30th, which is the official release date. If you pre-order at a show you’ll get a free copy of the Single on CD. By next month we’ll also have T-shirts, Posters and Stickers for sale at shows and on the web site.

This week Lars and I will be back at some of our old favourites in North-East Ohio: The Beachland is this Wednesday, November 7th at 8 pm with Stratospheerius and Ryan Montbleau Band on the bill as well. Thursday night we’re back at Sonnet’s in Wadsworth for a double set and Friday we’re in Youngstown, Ohio at a new venue, the B & O station. Stratospheerius is on that bill as well.

In addition to those shows we have a Stratford, CT show on November 17th and a NYC show at the Rockwood on November 27th. Contrary to what I wrote in my last newsletter, this will NOT be the CD release party since many people have said that they wouldn’t be able to make a Tuesday night show. So, we’ve moved the NYC CD release party to Friday, January 25th at 8 pm at Rockwood. Please do mark your calendars for this one. It’ll be a full band show with special guests.

Friends in Germany: I’m coming home for the holidays and will be playing in Hamburg and Berlin, Dec 28th and 29th at Kukuun, Hamburg and January 4th at Zimmer 16 in Berlin. Also on the bill is Stylblyten and I will have special guest Anne McNamee opening on the Friday night show, Dec 28th in Hamburg.

More details to come on all of this as well as a few upstate NY shows beginning of December…a lot going on right now…thanks as always for your continued support!!
