72 hours

‎72 hours and change to "The Night Strangers" Let's-Keep-It-Dark, Rock and Roll Book Tour. Hoping hotels don't lose my underwear. Hoping I have the common sense to restrain from eating a Gritty Cat Waffle before boarding turboprop in a thunderstorm. And hoping to see or meet many of you on the road!

It all starts Monday, October 3rd. Here is the full schedule.
