Coast to Coast, top to bottom, LA to NYC, Madison to New Orleans, and everywhere in between. We will be reporting from the road with video, blogs, newsletters and tweets at every stop so you can travel right alongside us. There will be prizes for those of you who show up in the most states and see the most shows. If you have ever wanted to see this gorgeous country of ours now is the time!
