Here?s my sweetie and I, in a photo taken at the National Women?s Music Festival a couple of years ago, by my friend EL. And no, I?m not wearing this dress: But it?s awfully fun to wear when I?m emceeing. That?s me with a group of women for one of my weirdly entertaining contests at the Virginia Women?s Music Festival this last May. 1. Tour schedule 2. Welcome and general blabbing 3.

Welcome and general blabbing ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I?m not doing a lot of touring right now. I've stuck around home, teaching and gardening mostly. I?ve got a rockin? garden with so many tomatoes they should be the feature of their own horror story. One of my new students showed up for her first class sporting four ponytails and an electric Hello Kitty guitar. The cuteness was so blinding I could hardly teach. I adore my students. And yep, I?m getting married although my sweetie prefers ?official legalization of our co-joining.? (You know I love you honey.) The newest issue of Curve has a couple of articles written by moi. Look for more from me in future issues. I?m still raising money for my new album. If you can help, see the link on the front page at _www.jamieanderson.com_ (http://www.jamieanderson.com/) . Physically I won't be at the National Women?s Music Festival this weekend L but I?ll certainly be there in spirit. I will, however, be at the Michigan Womyn?s Music Festival. I?m not booked to play but you can find me in the Goldenrod booth most afternoons. When I?m not honeymooning, that is. J I?ve got a couple of gigs this month. This Saturday I?ll be at Durham?s Festival for the Eno, in a solo set and with my band. I love this festival ? cause it?s got such a great variety of music and dance. And sure, it?s hot but heck, it?s the South in the summer. Just get yourself a super-sized lemonade and plant your butt in a shady spot near one of the stages. You won? t have to move for a long time, I guarantee it. Later this month I?ll be at the Red Roof Women?s Music Festival in Ontario. No, not in Ohio, that?s in Canada. I?m excited to play my first big women?s event in Canada. They were nearly sold out last time I checked so be sure to look at their website before you head out. Have a cool July y'all! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 3. Free songs at _www.jamieanderson.com/music.html_ (http://www.jamieanderson.com/music.html) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well, that pretty much sums it up. You can donate a bit of dough if you want. Or not. :) There are several songs there that you won?t find on any album ? a version of ?Her Problem Now? with my band, Broad Street; ?Six Flags Over Jesus? done solo; and a live recording of ?Menstrual Tango? with the Indianapolis Women?s Chorus. I also have songs for a small fee on a ton of download sites, including iTunes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 4. Do you live in Arizona? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm looking for house concerts or other performance opportunities in Arizona for November. I'm already booked in Tucson but if you live in the Phoenix area or elsewhere, please give me a shout. A venue with a listening crowd (no noisy bars please) that pays more than tips is great. House concerts are also wonderful. If you have a space that seats more than 20 and a good list of friends, you're good to go. There's no money up front for you and you don't need any equipment.

Welcome and general blabbing ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I?ve been in Canada for the past couple weeks, soaking up the cool weather. We haven?t even turned on the AC. Sunday I head out for the Michigan Women ?s Music Festival. (Yeah, I know they spell it ?womyn.? My writer?s brain just can?t bear a ?y? in ?women.? So pummel me with an organic carrot.) I?m not booked to perform or teach there. I will, however, be at the Goldenrod booth most afternoons. C?mon back and say hey. I?ll be sure to have a stack of great CDs for you to hear and buy. And no, they aren?t all mine. J I?m desperate to befriend the neighborhood cats here but they don?t respond to ?kitty kitty.? Apparently, even the cats speak French. Heck, even my cats speak French. In fact, they know ?tuna? in every language. I?m getting married on Friday. Whoo hoo! We?re registered at Canadian Tire. I wanted to register at Guitar Center but the gf wouldn't go for it. I had a couple of tres (French!) fun festival gigs this earlier this month. Thanks to everyone who came out to Festival for the Eno and the Red Roof Women?s Festival. Who knew I had to come to Canada to get a sunburn? I?m still raising money for my new album. If you can help, see the link on the front page at _www.jamieanderson.com_ (http://www.jamieanderson.com/) . I?d be very grateful for any help you could offer me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 3.

Do you live in Arizona? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I?m looking for gigs in November. If you know of a folk coffeehouse or similar type venue that I could contact, please let me know. I prefer a place with a listening crowd (no noisy bars please) and more than pass-the-hat pay. House concerts are great. If you have a living room or other space that seats more than 20 and a good list of friends who might attend, I?d love to know. E me: Jamie at jamieanderson dot com. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6.
