In anticipation of Advance Base's upcoming Eastern & Midwestern US tours, I've decided to share a couple of long-lingering but newly-completed Advance Base songs: "Movie Theater Manager" & "Blue Christmas 2." The songs are available exclusively from Bandcamp.

In the horror story version of my life, there would be a day when I go to my local post office to check my p.o. box & I stick my hand in a little too far & I get sucked through to the other side & then I become the man in the photo above my p.o. box, Stanley-Kubrick's-The-Shining-style.

I missed the anniversary but nevertheless!
Aaron Seward's hand-painted music video for "The Year I Lived in Richmond" by Advance Base has been out in the world for a whole, big, terrible year.
Thank you Aaron for making beautiful magic.

Yesterday I drove down to FedEx to pick up the Wall of Tears & Other Songs I Didn't Write LP jackets. I think they look terrific. The vinyl will be arriving just in time for my July Midwest tour, so you can either pick up a copy at a show or order here: advancebase.bandcamp.com/album/wall-o...
