[JakeShows] Open mike featured act in North Providence Thursday, plus March shows, plus Jake & Chris East Coast Tour 2011!

[Jacob Haller]

Hey all,

I hope you're well!  Chris Monti and I have been busy planning a tour of the East Coast starting on March 17.  We plan to generally focus on original songs and to split our sets between solo songs and songs where we play together.  It should be a lot of fun.  I won't list the dates here (I'll include them in a later message closer to the tour), but you can get all the latest information from <http://killdevils.com/2011tour/>, and you can play also songs from our new albums, 'like' the page on facebook, etc.

But there's still lots to do in Rhode Island before then, starting with just a couple of days from now:
