LR Solo Acoustic Songs Tour
 
LR Solo Acoustic Songs Tour - Europe Oct/Nov 2014.
While the members of The Dust are scattered to the four winds for a little while, I’m undertaking a solo acoustic tour in Europe. The plan is to play selections from the two albums, some covers and hopefully some of the new songs I’m currently working on, and to play them as most of them originated – on acoustic guitars, in stripped down style. Guitar and voice, little or no fuzz. Anyway that’s the plan right now, this will be a further ‘acoustic experiment’ for me. We’ve sought out small capacity, intimate venues with good acoustics for these shows. Hope to see some of you along the way–

If you're going I'm cycling to Cafe Oto and wait for you outside so I won't disturb the acoustic gig. I promise to take my shoes off too.

Dale's birthday, all right! Pelé, on the other hand, has become an unsufferable asshole - not as bad as Maradona, but still...

Why are so many artists keen on doing an acoustic record and tour?
Acoustic songs are often pretty boring.
I hope Lee proves me wrong on this one.

It's the take my bedroom to the stage thing.
And in your bedroom you sleep, fuck and play boring sad songs.
Most people aren't Annie Sprinkle so it leaves you sleeping while Lee touches his acoustic.

Rob Instigator 08.14.2014 08:21 AM

it is a cheaper tour. acoustic guitars, some strings, wireless mike, done. much easier logistically than taking a full electric band.

unless it's going to be the same as the J Mascis solo tour, which set started pretty much acoustic, until he pressed his pedals

is there any chance some more dates will be added, closer to the more important countries of Europe? :D
