Getting outta the house and making my way into the Autumnal colors of the Northeast - though this show is at night, so the colors will mostly be black.
Please support this foray into the viability of traveling long distances to bring the music to the people.

Okay, Boston. I have received your 7,236 emails, MySpace messages, phone calls, candygrams, strippergrams (thanks), Phil Gramms (no, thank you) and sonograms all sounding like Dave Loggins in 1974, so I WILL come to Boston - will YOU be there?
I KNOW - The Red Sox are playing. I feel you. I'm even with you (first off, the Devil Rays aren't even a real team and secondly dropping "Devil" from their name was pansy), but dude, LOOK at when I'm playing. You can catch the game AND my show. In the words of Joe Biden "Let me repeat that:" You can catch the game AND my show.

Monday, 10.13.08 - 9P - The Living Room - NYC:
If you missed last week, you missed hearing 'Misadventures in Stereo' played solo acoustic from beginning to end, with an added bonus track prefaced by a story explaining why I lost my chance to open for Springsteen last weekend at the Obama benefit after being "vetted" (it had something to do with "paling around"). Do you really think you can afford to miss what I have planned for this week?

JIM BOGGIA
The Living Room 154 Ludlow - NYC
Nectar's? I barely KNEW her! While that's not funny now, it will be at about hour 7 of the drive up to Vermont. But drive I must (well, I'll actually be in the passenger seat) and play I will, though I probably won't play 'I Will' unless I Am joined in a duet by Will.I.Am (and THAT joke might become funny by hour 5).
There is no cover, but maple syrup donations are gladly accepted.

Thursday, 10.16.08 - The Goldhawk - Hoboken, NJ:
God damn, this is an awful lot of gigs to write funny shit for. May I have a pass on this one and I'll say something amusing when you come to the show? Thanks.

10.23.08 - 'MOUNTAIN STAGE' TAPING CANCELLED
Well, THAT'S not funny. Yep, I'm afraid it's true. They cancelled the Keswick Theatre show that was to be the taping for 'Mountain Stage'. Don't know if Nanci Griffith got a cold or the crank broke off of the West Virginia Public Radio mobile transmitter, but it ain't happenin' (that's mountain talk, but it also makes me relatably folksy to voters ).
while at work the other day I had to call another workplace. They put me on hold. On comes some Jim Boggia - "Listening to NRBQ" thought that was cool. :)
I love Misadventures In Stereo! I'd love to see "Listening to NRBQ" on your page! I think that might be my favorite, right now anyway! Please come south!!
Thanks for putting your latest out on vinyl. I'll have you know it is placed right between some Bodeans record and The Bonzo Dog Band vinyl. And no...I won't be selling the collection on eBay.
Jim I love your CD I listen to it almost everyday and love every single song..Nothings change I can really relate to..Its very rare to love every song on a cd..I hope to catch another show soon..take care, Nancy
