COME SEE ME IN ALMOST FIFTY STATES THIS FALL.

So I am going on the Melvins Lite tour of all fity states (plus D.C.) in September and most of October. In case you don't know about this, read this:

The Melvins will attempt to become the Guinness World Record holders for the first band to tour the full United States and D.C. in 51 days..."We figured it was time for us to do something REALLY crazy," said Osborne. "51 shows in 50 states plus 1 on D.C. and all in 51 days? Jeez! I wonder if we can do it?"

The tour, which will feature the Melvins Lite line-up of Buzz Osborne, Dale Crover and Trevor Dunn, also marks the first time in the band's near 30-year history that they will perform in Alaska, New Hampshire, Delaware and Hawaii.

So yes, its going to be nuts, grueling and a lot of hard ass work. But it will be awesome as well. The band will have some special goodies to take with them to sell, and yes I will have some special cool stuff as well.

So stop by and say hello to me at the merch table. I won't bite.
