It’s been a tricky line to approach and cross because of the implications from doing something like this. Again, my only goal was to get my music into people’s hands and especially to people who want the music but don’t have the immediate means to take it home. That being said, I cannot express my gratitude enough to people who are generous enough to purchase my music. It is one of the many ways I know people appreciate what I do and they support my dream.

Here’s to another amazing year and many more to come! Thank you and happy holidays!

So instead, I just want to say thank you to everyone who was so gracious to the four of us over the last week. Thank you to Jonathan (@jonnykdesigns) for making us the great tour shirts and also allowing us to play at his house in LA. Thank you to Navi, Shayna, Jessica/Keven for letting us crash at their places so we didn’t have to stay in hotels (or worse, in the van) every night. Thank you to all of the great venues that let us share our music with the people that came to see us. Thank you to Lou Evans and Jaden La Rue for helping us get shows in San Francisco and LA. Thanks to Jude for helping us with transportation. It was definitely the way to do it.

Thank you Rob and Isaac for a great bunch of shows and all the fun we had on the road. It’s so much of a treat when we not only we like each other’s music but also each other. I had as much fun singing along offstage as I did onstage with those guys. I think we all did and that’s why the shows were so fun. And not to mention all the crazy singing we did when we weren’t even around a stage. I’m secretly hoping that we can do this again soon. Australia?

Lastly, but definitely not least, thank you to Travis for being our driver. I can’t even remember how many times I thought to myself “Thank god we have Travis helping us out” over the course of the last week. At least twice. Plus 500. He was as much of the tour as we were, with his steady driving abilities even on two hours of sleep or introducing us to AMAZING mexican food (La Super Rica, we shall meet again) or his goofy ET impressions during “The Bicycle Song”. Travis was always the guy saying “what can I carry to the venue” when we were all exhausted from the trip (even though he did 95% of the driving and 2.5% of the sleeping). Without him, I think we would have killed ourselves. Literally.

Thank you everyone for making this tour such a success! Here’s to hoping I see you on the road again soon!

Kenny

PS. Keep an idea out for videos and pictures!

I have to say, it has not been without it’s challenges. Even as we speak, dates are been moved and rearranged so please check the schedule frequently. We will also be making announcements via the Adult Books Tour Twitter, our own Twitter accounts and Facebook just to keep everyone up to date (including ourselves). We weren’t able to get the transportation we wanted so we had to be creative and pull some strings, either. In case you didn’t know, it’s kinda hard to put on a tour. Even if it’s only ten days long!

But all that being said, if the laughing and good times we’ve all had spending the last few days hanging out and rehearsing and whatnot are any indication of what will happen when we’re finally out on the road, it will be hilarious! I’m sure we’ll post some videos and pictures so definitely check my YouTube and photos.

In fact, here are a few already!

This may be premature, but thank you for joining us and supporting us on our little adventure! We hope to see you at the shows and promise to make it a fun evening of music! Please keep spreading the word and we’ll see you on the road!

Now, we really need your help in getting people to the shows. So if you have any friends that want to have a good time with some great music and fun people, please let them know that we’ll be in their neighborhoods soon! There’s a Facebook event page if you’re into that sort of thing and you can follow the Adult Books Tour on Twitter, too!

Travis even designed a few posters for us like the posters below (to see the rest of the posters, go to kennyeng.com/photos):

I’m hitting the road again for a Winter West Coast tour called “Always the Best Man Tour” with my good friends Isaac Cheong (visiting from Australia) and Rob Deez! I have no idea what’s in store for us on this trip but we’ll be sure to share all of the antics with you as it happens!

Please check out the poster we made after the jump and be sure to spread the word! We will gladly accept all the love and support we can get!

Check back in around early November for more details about shows and tickets!

See you out on the road!
