May Day! Crowdsourced Tour Promotion

If I'm going to have crowds, they need to be sourced!

From October 19th through November 19th I'll be on tour in Europe, and then northern California just after.  Your help getting the word out will mean the difference between audiences, and crickets!

Booking a tour is one part of the equation in this line of work.  That involves communicating with a whole bunch of really high-quality folks, some of whom run venues, others of whom are working with them to make a local event happen.  They're all trying to get the word out among their networks, but what will really amplify their efforts is if everyone who has gotten to the point of clicking on this blog post and reading this paragraph will take a moment to look at where I'm playing (below) and tell a friend in one of those towns about my upcoming gig there.

Most of the info below is expanded upon in more detail at davidrovics.com/tour, including with things like links for buying tickets online in some cases, but the basic info of date, venue, and town is below, along with posters for gigs that have their own cool graphics...
