Goes Cube on tour + EAR FARM = Tour Documentary

And now for something completely different...

From March 6th - April 6th Goes Cube is going to be going on a cross-country tour of the United States and I'm proud to announce that EAR FARM is going to be going along for the entire trip. That's right, the month of March is going to bring with it some interesting times here at EAR FARM. Namely, tons of time on the road in a van with an awesome band and my video camera. Posts from the road? You bet.

Many of you may not be aware of the fact that my full time job entails working in the realm of film production but it does. Therefore, it is with tons of excitement that I set out upon this journey with the guys from Goes Cube to create a film that captures their experience during their first US tour. If you're a fan of the band, friends with the band, a blogger who has written about them, a music industry insider, another band who'll be playing one of these shows with Goes Cube - anything - please get in touch with me. I'd love to potentially have you talk on camera about Goes Cube's music or any aspect of indie music and touring. Seriously. Email me at earfarm -at- mac -dot- com. And hey, if we're coming to your town, please come out, see the show, and say hi.

Also, I plan to try to post daily on EAR FARM while on the road, but who knows how well that will turn out. Fingers crossed that you'll be able to get your usual EF fix, but in a new tour-oriented manner, during the month of March. Who knows for sure? Guess you'll have to keep checking back to find out. Oh, and if you live in any of the places we'll be visiting feel free to send along suggestions of places to eat, drink, visit, etc.
