OH YEAH
I signed on to do Spontaneous Combustion again at Manhattan Theater Source (I've done it before - here's a description of what the show is all about from last time.)

(Reading that entry from last December, at the beginning of the whole creation process I'm now in the middle of, jeezus did I ever sound hopeful and full of life back then. Now, well, I'm halfway through a triathlon. It's going well, but I'm a bit too in the moment these days to revel too much in what's going down.)

Anyway. The Spontaneuos Combustion Festival has only attracted better and greater talent, and are starting to sell out in advance. The fact that they're still letting me in the front door is by turns baffling and thrilling. Anyway, I'd recommend booking tickets if you're around Sunday, Monday or Tuesday, and book them in the next couple of days. After that, I can't guarantee anything other than huge entertainment, especially from the pieces I'm not in.

Until I start playing my own shows again next month, this will be the only chance to see me in action. If that matters, and hey, maybe it even does.
