YOU GO LEAD A QUIET LIFE

Folks,

We’re back. Stephie, Vicente and I had a ball rampaging through the Wild East on our Trio Tour culminating in our SOLD OUT show on Valentine’s Day with the Make Out Quartet at the Swedish American Hall here in San Francisco.

But once again, we’re gassing up the Econoline and taking the Mission Express out to the people. Starting this Tuesday in Des Moines and heading down into into parts unknown and then coming in for a landing with a three show stand at our home away from home in Austin – the Continental Club.

Just now, I’m sitting here listening to Bob Dylan’s “Fragments” and enjoying a cuppa. One minute Bob’s singing about how the best advice he ever got was to “Go home and lead a quiet life.” And then he turns around and asks: “You ever feel just like your brain’s been bolted to the wall?”

You go lead a quiet life, Bob. I’ve still got dreams to fulfill, you know? Sure, I’ll probably never own a guitar with my name written on the fretboard in mother of pearl, but we’re not ready to fold up the tent just yet, either. Note the cluster lunch of gigs below.

What else am I gonna do? At least I’m halfway good at it. And nobody has a better band. (And on a personal note, nobody has a better band.) Nothing is wrong, everything’s right. We’ll be out there giving ourselves, all for you, night after night, so won’t you be there with us when the deal goes down?

Again, I won’t insult with indecipherable links. You know what do to from here, right? Dig in with both hands.

Onwards,

- CP

WHERE DID I LEAVE OFF?

Folks,

Where did I leave off? Hope everyone had a swinging holiday.

Last time out The Mission Express was about to embark on a trek out to Texas and back, swinging up to Flagstaff and Tucson and Pappy and Harriets on the way home. This time around we are embarking on a three person folk rock rampage through the Wild East. [No fighting on the dance floor. But there might be some fighting on the stage]. We’re psyched. People are nuts out there. Honking and yelling and drinking Dunkin’ Donuts coffee. It’s wild. We love it.

It’s the Acoustic Trio lineup we’ve got in store for you. Yours truly, Stephie and Vicente.

Been writing away, too. Listening to nothing but Cumbia jams. Soon we’ll be praying to the record gods. Out loud. More on that later. For now it’s gigsville USA. Dates here and below. Dig in with both hands.

Onwards,

-C

P.S. Meanwhile in Merchville: If you make it out to a show. We’ve dug up some some rare and out-of-print items like T-shirts or import CDs, LPs, 7 inches, or whatever and we’re pretty excited about our new coffee mugs, too.

P.P.S. Beyond that, if you want to get deeper into the real nitty-gritty with some more of my personal writing, you can now follow me over here at Substack.

RETURN OF THE 100% SMOKE FREE NEWSLETTER

Folks,

Attention guys (and the gals who love their significant others enough to come along).

We’ve got some dates to announce. A hometown show with The Mission Express at The Chapel. Also Mission Express USA tour dates including three gigs on a very large boat. And down the road some acoustic trio shows.

As always, the dates are guaranteed fresh and tickets are available at CP Inc, where you can always find up-to-the-minute details.

Oh, and while I’ve got your attention, why not take a minute to browse the aisles of our on-line store? Take your time, we just ask that you be respectful of your fellow shoppers; no cutting in line or jostling others. There’s enough for everyone.

On behalf of myself and the band (Stephie, James, Kevin T and Vicente) we hope to see you out there.

Onwards,

-C

P.S. Meanwhile in Merchville: In addition to all the re-issued LP’s now available, we’re back to fussing around with the upcoming “Maximum Temple” box set that’s gonna include a DVD of the Strings in the Temple show at the GAMH… and… more! [Getting into the artisanal spirit, we’ll be test-marketing a batch of Temple Beautiful cookies. Sadly, the Temple Beautiful pumpkin and nutmeg spiced candles didn’t make it past the first focus group.]
