I'm supposed to play a show on Friday, about 3.5 hours away.  Should I go?

I once saw Ted Leo fall asleep at a Richard Maxwell play at The Kitchen.  He was in attendance with Laurie Anderson and Philip Glass.  That was definitely worth it.

Will Henry Rollins be there?  If so, no.

Only if you play Pizza Party.
Failing that, 'Who Do You Love?' would be fine.
Also, you haven't been to Florida in ages, jerk.

Yeah!! C'mon, at least play Churchill's. Iggy Pop will probably be skulking about or something.

i'm assuming this is the show at the ibew hall in dorchester.  i grew up about five minutes from there, and a ted leo solo show would definitely be the best rock act to appear in the history of dot. unfortunately i'm not going because i'm not a huge dropkick murphy's fan and st. patrick's day weekend dkm tickets are harder to get than seats at fenway.

If there's a show on the tour closer to home, just go to that one instead.
