I'm doing a kinda crazy thing to celebrate the tenth anniversary of what I consider my official NYC debut (at the Algonquin Oak Room, back in '99):

Beginning on Tuesday, Dec.9th, I'll be performing 10 consecutive shows, with 10 different bands, in almost 10 different venues (9 -- one venue has two different bands over two nights).

It's going to be a little nuts, but I'm excited about it, because I'll be bringing back a number of players that have been with me over the years AND I'll be bringing back some projects that mean a lot to me, namely a new showing of "we are destroyed," , a return to the Algonquin with my erstwhile bandmates Russell Farhang and Jon Flaugher (and special guest Orange Kellin), a new outing for the Basement Tapes, and another chance to play my newest material with a string section at Joe's Pub.

I'm going to highlight each show with its own blog entry, so just scroll down over the next few days, and click away to see what's in store.

Hope to see you at a few of them!
