I'm not hiding anything, sadly.
I had to cancel my inclusion on this tour a few weeks ago, much to my chagrin.
I'm just not in a place financially that allows me to leave town for a few weeks on tour. It pains me to no end; my last tour with Paul was so much fun, and I was really wanting to hit the road with him again.
I also found out he's playing with Bardo Pond on this tour (after I broke the news to him about my cancellation), and at a couple of other places that are connected with other friends I haven't seen in a long time.
The very inventive Tim Kaiser will be Paul's touring support act instead, but he is probably more interesting to watch than I am anyway, so hooray for the audience.
Tim makes strange and wonderful sound devices, as you can see.
