Secondly, for months now we have been working on raising the funds and creating the right couple products  I could be proud to sell to you.  Just go check out the store and I'll let you come up with your own ideas and opinions from there.  Special major thanks to Chip, manager Chip, who worked with me long and hard to create my "journal" idea....

Update #18 · Jun 15, 2011 · 2 comments

I should have held out and waited for something really amazing to share here, like some video of one of these Hotel Cafe shows I did (coming!) or better yet some words about when the album will be in your hand or device....but that is ALMOST figured out....what I wanted to say was that tomorrow I am leaving for Chicago, onto Fall River Mass., NYC, Ardmore PN, and Washington DC.  For the next month, right up til the release of Same Something Differerent I'll be sitting on on some new stages and singing these new songs to many of your faces.  It's a lot to think about.  A lot to take in....a lot of last minute packing and stressing to do.  But ultimately I'll be on that stage and it will all be worth it, new and real and exciting. 

Wanted to make sure you knew I was coming, so here is the link to the event on facebook.

Also, the dates are all listed @ www.jakewalden.com

Please check out the attached poster for the tour ( one of many actually) and feel free to post and share and all that modern important stuff.  THANK YOU!!!

Jake

oh yeah, also attached is the COVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
