With new material OK. I’m slowly but happily trotting out a new show with new material. It’s called WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO for the time being. That might change, who knows. I’m excited and nervous. More cities will be added but for now it’s just these in the United States. Live dates for it are below in the live section and keep checking, we’re always adding more dates. For JUST FOR US stuff, btw. A total accounting of its live journey is in the solo show section below and you can see the trailer here.
