Also, any plans to do live albums for the “I break chairs” and “St Bartlett” tours?

If we are able to get a great sounding recording, yes, most definitely!

I would love to hear the Story for predictive living from caught in the trees. It's obviously about your and your doubts as an artist and the last song before you went into new directions with Swift.

my favorite song off of that album - and especially love these lyrics:

Just when you thought you had me pegged / Thinking I'm the same

Then I go and change / Three become a name

back when 'damien jurado' was a band/trio

Thanks for sharing all these exciting updates! Motorcycle Madness was one of my favorite albums of 2023, so I’m excited to hear the new versions of the songs. I’d be interested in hearing an Explanation about Neiman Marcus.

I’m pretty sure I owe myself an explanation on that one.

The news was very interesting and I enjoyed listening to it. As a person living in Europe, I will certainly be able and willing to accept your offer to see one of the concerts on the west coast of the USA one day, hopefully very soon. Exit 353 would be my interest to hear and learn more.

Keyboards last night…every song… constant… no space.. even in between songs, non-stop, the loudest by far in the mix…Just some constructive for Seattle show.

Any chance of bringing the 2 meter digital album also to bandcamp and/or release it on CD too. (Coast 2 Coast did with other Lps released in the same time with your LP; eg. Bettie Servert session on CD/LP) ?!?

The album is streaming now and also avail. as DL (24bit):

Such a wonderful surprise to find you here on Substack :) I totally understand staying close to home and hope I will get the chance to see you play and tell stories live again some day, but in the meantime I will be very happy to listen to you here. Love from The Netherlands
