The world feels all kinds of fucked up and I just need to sit in the comfort of this old familiar purple-y page right now. Who's still with me?

Shows in Australia and US

One week from today my favorite boys and I are getting on a plane and flying very far to reunite with the sweet people of Australia. You must know the love is true for me to fly that far because I hate flying (especially over oceans) and this will be the furthest I have ever been from Panda EVER. I better get to pet a koalakangaroodolphin and duet with Bindi Irwin. Mmmmmmhmmmmm...

In November I am doing a show for Siren Nation Festival:
Sat Nov 5th Portland, OR @ Mississippi Studios w/ STLS
2:30 doors/3pm show $13adv/$15dos All Ages! http://sirennationfestival2011c.sched.org/

Then I will be doing a cluster of shows with my good buddy Clyde (Your Heart Breaks). The shows will NOT be free of verbal obscenities, but they are all ages, so if you don't mind your kids hearing some shitsfucksandassholes bring em along! The more little ones the merrier. Clyde and I are both pretty quiet and there will be some sing-a-longs! Thunder Thighs will be available on cd and double gold vinyl and Kimya Dawson Loves Me (Walk Like Thunder) Socks will be available in knee high and crew styles! Maybe there will be some special guests here and there. Maybe there will be some revolution on the days off (and the days on). There will absolutely be some serious hugging...well, at least until Panda says "GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY MAMA!"

See you soon!!!
