Once Upon a Time... (The Story)

Hey everybody!  


If you're looking at this page, weve probably shared a drink, a bed and/or a crisis.  (What?  Kidding.  I hope.  Am I pregnant again?  FML.)  Either that or youve been reached by one of my link/forward-happy friends.  If so, welcome!  I now love you as much as I love them, with the fire of a 1,000 suns.  BURNING LUVVVVVV.


Anyways, dysfunctional hyperbole aside, this has been quite the year.  I quit a stable job, and left my friends, family and home of 33 years, all to start a new life here in Tokyo, Japan.  I finished up "Japanese Satellites," my 7th studio album.  I hired a manager.  And I started turning Japanese (or so I think so).


Although Im having an amazing time over here, I miss you all bunches and am eager to reconnect during my first ever West Coast tour!  Preparation is coming along nicely, but I definitely need your help!


Since all of you contributed in one way or another to making Japanese Satellites a reality through your generous donations, can I count on you to help make this tour a reality too?  With your help I can live the dream of bringing 80s flavored folk-pop to every major West Coast city from San Diego on up to Vancouver!  


Where the Money Goes 

1. Plane ticket - $1,500 (While boat travel is cheaper...)
2. Car rental - $1,060 (As much as I love Amtrak...)
3. Gas - $840 (Eek!  Thank goodness I won't drive a Hummer)
4. Music equipment rental - $1,000 (Equipment breaks, venues don't have P.A.s, etc.)
5. Lodging - $1,480 (Hoping to lower this cost with couch-surfing but just in case...)
6. GPS - $120 (Trust me, without it Ill end up driving into the Pacific Ocean) 

Whens the Deadline?

December 25th.  Shalom?  Merry Xmas to me!  


Whats In It For You?

Plenty!  Not just warm fuzzy feelings and my eternal gratitude, but also some nifty thank you gifts detailed on the right.


Other Ways You Can Help

Cant donate?  Totally understand.  But it would be great if you could help get the word out and forward this to folks you think might be interested in me and my 80s flavored folk-pop antics.  And thanks as always for helping me live the dream!
