Now Playing: "Have Some Fun & Get Involved!"

As I get ready to do a lot more touring and visit a lot more cities this year, I wanted to extend an invitation and request to all of you out there across the country to have some fun and get involved with the Doctor Noize showz.

Things are growing and that is good. I am getting more calls from more cities across the country to perform. The truth is, though, that I kinda love my kids and my wife and my hometown a lot, and balancing my desire to bring Doctor Noize to as many kids as possible and my desire to spend as much time with my wife and my kids and hometown friends as possible is always a challenge.

On the other hand, the greatest thing about going on the tours is connecting and sharing music and life with all the new and old friends along the way. And this is where the VIN‘s (Very Important Noizemakers) come in. VIN’s do two vital things for which I am very grateful:

(1) They help me organize, promote, and even book shows in their area.
(2) They help make me feel more at home, and less on the road, while I’m there.

In return, VIN’s have a lot of fun, earn my eternal friendship and gratitude and often become good friends (which makes us both lucky), and often even get to have a little extra fun. This may come in the form of informal acoustic mini concerts and book readings at their homes, coming up onstage to do something a little extra at a Doctor Noize show, or just a fun family dinner with Doctor Noize after a show.

In short, I really, really believe in the grassroots nature of family music and books, and this grassroots is essential to the survival and flourishing of the type of music and books I want to create. I will continue to create shows, books and recordings with an independent spirit , with both kids and parents in mind, and with a sense of fun coupled with an elevated opinion of the type of music and interactive creativity that kids and parents can handle. And if you agree with me on that, then you are exactly the kind of person I’d like to work with when I come through town, and I have no doubt that we will both have fun making it happen.

So…

If you live in one of the areas of my expected tour routes this year, or even another area where you’d like Dr. Noize to perform, and you’d like to have a little fun and help make the showz a smashing success… Contact me and let’s all inspire kids about music, words and creativity together.

Thanks from yer buddy for life,

Doctor Noize
