Dear Though I’m Told fans,

Hey everyone!!! Due to popular demand, the tour blog is back for the second leg of our summer tour. I promise to work as hard as possible to paint a vivid literary picture of life on road with the illustrious, sometimes dysfunctional, yet always jovial Though I’m Told. I know that I only posted every few days during the last tour, and I understand how this lack of constant poetic waxing was a traumatic event for some of you. Due once again to popular demand, I will try my damndest to post every day I can.

So listen my rockers,
and you shall hear
of our cross country journey,
full of pizza and beer (I wish…)

After months of intense planning, the day of reckoning had arrived. As many of you may know, our longtime friend, “Selfish Afro Mike Davies” joined Team TIT as booking agent/tour manager. Bleary eyed and groggy, we met at the crack of dawn. Visions of caffeine and doughnuts danced in our head. Soon after, good ole Uncle Sando picked us up in the newly christened Exploder II. Ready for action, we headed towards Southern Mass in search of our trailer. Over the hour-long journey, we bore witness to a plethora of “Bullitt”-worthy, “Masshole” automobile-gymnastics (i.e. accidents). Old school TIT fans may know of our recent trailer issues. I am excited to report that our acquisition of the trailer went off without a hitch.


The following is a classified briefing:

At 11:00 hours EST, the Exploder II rendezvoused at “Checkpoint Costco”.

The mission: Apprehension of certain “potentially dangerous” MEATS & CHEESE.

The mission was deemed successful. Team TIT landed in the snack section despite the heavy presence of discount briefs in the next sector. Chips and Animal Crackers were taken into custody and questioned. Despite lack of cause for containment, they have yet to be released by Team TIT. No explanation was given. 10 minutes later, the rogue meats were captured. The slabs of turkey and ham were locked safely in the Exploder II.

Once the packing was completed, we began our journey towards the always-aromatic state of New Jersey. Throughout the trip we were serenaded by the sweet sounds of The Eagles, Roberta Flack, and Pantera.

We made it to our destination by sunset. Destination was none other than the childhood home of Team TIT publicist Emily Mavraganis. We are currently relaxing in front of the TV, trying to regain our strength after a meal of pasta, meatballs, cheesecake, birthday cake, and yes my friends, peanut butter pie. I am off to sleep in a few minutes. Tomorrow we plan to chill out for the day in NYC. The chilling shall be followed by the kickoff show of our summer tour. We would love to see all of our Big Apple fans tomorrow night at the legendary Continental in NYC. For more information, please check out our updated website at www.thoughimtold.com.

Alright everyone, time for some sleep. Check back in tomorrow for a detailed description of our New York show.

Rock on!
