On the Road
Tonight we begin our journey to Louisville, Kentucky. There on Friday evening I will be reading my poetry at The InKY Reading Series, as part of "Stranger Than Fiction" night. I'm very excited to be taking my act on the road.
In hand, thanks to the awesome efforts of graphic artist/poet/all around great guy Jim Fastiggi, I will have copies of my brand-new chapbook The Incredulity Tour. Which is only fitting, as this trip has been dubbed "The Incredulity Tour." Technically, it is "The Incredulity Tour Tour," I suppose.
Regardless, we are thrilled to be hours away from embarking on this sojourn.

See you tomorrow!
Wishing you a tremendous show/performance/visit-to-Kentucky, you sage! Leave 'em all incredulous!
FYI, Louisville was ranked #8 most literate city in the US in 2003, by University of Wisconsin.
PLUS they have Colonel Sanders' grave
AND giant chocolate-covered donuts
AND some of Goldfinger was filmed there in 1964!
Other fun facts about Louisville:
Part of Stripes was filmed there in 1981.
It is the birthplace of Ned Betty. He took it up the ass in Deliverance.
There really are a lot of delicious fried fish sandwiches to be had.
A lot of people there wear their trucker hats sans irony.
The bars are open till 4am, latest in the country for all cities not named Las Vegas.
The late Hunter S. Thompson was a Louisvillian. In fact, he and I graduated from the same high school.
Eat at Ramsi's Cafe on the World and you will be a happy mo fo.
I JUST now got it. "InKY" -- In Kentucky... Duuuhhh, Kinda profound!
