His book is A Bad Idea I’m About To Do, and we’re about to do it for the next Bushwick Book Club.  I walk around this city with a couple paperback copies on me at all times.  If you’re looking to have one, you can just tackle me and pull them out of my blue canvas bag.  I’m leaving them at bars for songwriters, under their pillows, meeting them in back alleys or in front of office buildings to do the literary hand-off.  I’ve missed 2 train stops reading it, and I’ve had 2 dreams about it.  The show is March 22nd at Goodbye Blue Monday.  I have no idea what will happen, but it’s exciting to know something will happen.  If you’re curious, you should come out for the show.  Chris Gethard said he’d co-host with me and Sweet Soubrette.  See… anything can happen.

What else is happening is that The Debutante Hour is birthing a new CD!  The labor was intense for this one.  Each one is different, as you know.  This time around, we had Peter Hess producing, and we all had cravings for hot wings and chocolate (wait, we always have cravings for hot wings and chocolate).  The doulas were all our friends and supporters who donated so generously through our Kickstarter campaign.  The release show is THIS THURSDAY, the 15th at Littlefield in Brooklyn!

We’re going to be joined by amazing friends — Franz Nicolay (keys), Cecil Scheib (trombone), Jared (guitar), Butch and Nan (percussion), Karen Leblanc (saw), Jonathan Vincent (accordion/keys), Natalie Hung (big voice), Julie Delano and Leslie Graves (mesmerizing movements).  And the amazing Choban Elektrik (7:30pm) and big love Schwervon (8:30pm) will be opening!
