To Recap
In case you missed it the first time around when I didn’t have all the details, here are the shows for the rest of February. I’m looking for merch table volunteers for New York, San Francisco, San Diego and Portland – you’ll get in for free, score some merch, and also get one overnight cuddle with me (not really). Send me an email if you’re interested and promise not to steal from me.

February 12th, 2007 at 2:10 pm
Do we have to rock?
February 12th, 2007 at 2:26 pm
Can we soft rock?
February 12th, 2007 at 3:09 pm
Yes sorry, I meant soft rock of course.
February 12th, 2007 at 3:55 pm
Yay for Portland! For the JoCos about to soft rock, I salute you.
February 12th, 2007 at 4:01 pm
I’d love to schill for you at the Portland show (Free is a very good price), but the only only reason I rock these days is to get my son to sleep (he ruined everything in the nicest way).
February 12th, 2007 at 4:14 pm
I’ll be at the S.F. show and I don’t want no damn soft rock. I say break out the acoustic guitar shaped like a battleaxe. Woo!
February 12th, 2007 at 4:19 pm
How about a big phallic princesque guitar?
February 12th, 2007 at 4:36 pm
Spiff, please say hello! I will grovel in your awesomeness as well.

I posted some of this in a previous thread, but it seems pertinent here too…
Hotel Cafe doesn’t have pre-sale tickets for the LA show, so you’ll have to buy them at the box office on show night. http://www.hotelcafe.com/calendar_feb07.html
FYI, for everyone who’s coming to the LA show, parking in that area is, of course, a nightmare. I recommend the parking lot on the west side of Wilcox, between Selma and Hollywood. It’s one block west of Hotel Cafe. And you can also walk to the historic Pig’n Whistle for dinner beforehand. http://www.pignwhistle.com/

You’re never ever gunna hit Vegas, are you?
If it weren’t for school and work and such, I might be able to hit a California show.
sigh…oh well.
February 12th, 2007 at 4:55 pm
I was looking at the line up for the LA show and the singer that goes on before you plays the musical saw. Yes the Saw. You gotta get a duet going with her somehow!! at least for creepy doll. Her music is pretty good too.
February 12th, 2007 at 6:45 pm
Is there gonna be an all ages show in Seattle or should I procure a fake ID?
February 12th, 2007 at 11:54 pm
Sweet! I will be at the Seattle show for sure!
February 13th, 2007 at 12:03 am
What about those of us stranded in the midwest? I think a campus tour is in order, starting with Antioch College.
February 13th, 2007 at 7:56 am
What’s the chance of you hitting up Chicago again? I was looking forward to your show at Schuba’s and then I had to go out of town. When you coming back this way?
February 13th, 2007 at 8:53 am
There may be another Chicago trip in mid May, along with some ancillary midwest shows around then…
February 13th, 2007 at 2:17 pm
Ugh! SF has sold out, now what am I going to do?
February 14th, 2007 at 8:24 am
Hot damn, you’re coming to Portland.
February 14th, 2007 at 8:27 am
Nick: No, I really think Purdue University would be a better locale…
February 14th, 2007 at 10:20 am
JC, well if you are in Seattle end Feb you might as well keep those semi trailers moving and bring your rock show to Vancouver, Canada. Oh yes there will be curling…
February 15th, 2007 at 3:24 am
Hey there JC
If you had a gig in Tokyo I would volunteer to be on your merch table – it would be an honour. Of course I hadn’t thought about stealing from you until you mentioned it as a condition. Does that make me naive?
Any way, thinking about it I would have thought most of us listeners are too naive to have thought about stealing from the merch table.
February 15th, 2007 at 9:27 am
Man, I was really looking forward to the cuddle. [Says Colleen, who is working the merch table in LA.]
February 15th, 2007 at 10:03 pm
Hey JC,
I think you made a mistake on that list there. I don’t see Minneapolis on it…
You tease us with just the one song when you were here with Hodgman & Pollack and then you don’t come back? I’m not feelin’ the love! If you come back I’ll make you more cookies…

If I get enough people in Utah to listen to you will you come out here? Mormons are big on your stuff…don’t ask me why
February 18th, 2007 at 10:29 pm
I may have missed you the first time here in LA, JC, but NOT AGAIN!

I’m sorry to have to report that my party and I had to choose to leave the Cafe du Nord last night (with full refund) after being told that even though I’d bought the tickets a month ago, seating wasn’t guaranteed and we’d have to settle for glimpses of the stage from the bar area. The only guaranteed seats were for those who had dinner reservations (a condition the ticket office had not mentioned). There were another 10 or 12 chairs set up in the 15-foot wide archway between the dining area and the bar. The rest of the audience (I’d guess at least another 30 to 40 people) were restricted to the bar.
Considering that my wife is of diminutive stature (4′8″) and my sister is of distinguished age (71), it was pretty clear that the physical arrangement would take too much away from our enjoyment of the show.
J.C., Please do come back to San Francisco, and if you again say you want a “sit down show”, make sure that the venue actually provides seats.

You should stop by Eugene next time you come through the West Coast. Give the college kids a thrill :^)

Was at tonight’s LA show, it was totally awesome.
Thanks for coming down to the LA area and rocking out with us.
