Mike's hitting the road. Tickets for all shows are on sale now, click on each date in the table above for more info.
In 2002, Mike Doughty released a limited-edition live album, Smofe + Smang: Live In Minneapolis. It sold out very quickly, and has been a highly sought-after collector's piece ever since. Now, by popular demand, Mike is re-releasing an abridged version of the album, called Half Smofe. It's on sale now, only from Mike's online store.
Check out Mike's lo-fi video he shot for "27 Jennifers"
..MIKE ON MIKE:
My name is Mike Doughty. I'm a singer/songwriter. I live in Brooklyn.
I'm a blogger and photographer, too: go read it at mikedoughty.com/blog. (you can read the blogs here, too.)
I've also written a book of poetry, Slanky and a bunch of plays for The 24 Hour Plays, taken naked pictures for SuicideGirls.com of the fabulous tattooed model Twwly, wrote an Aquaman story for DC Comics' Bizarro World, and among some other music writing, had a piece included in the Da Capo Press Best Music Writing series.
These days, I'm hanging out waiting for the release of my new album Golden Delicious, produced by Dan Wilson in the mythic realm of Minneapolis. Many shows will follow.
And yeah, I used to be The Guy From Soul Coughing. I quit the band in 2000, against the advice of every sensible person I knew, and took off in a rental car (9000 miles by myself on my first tour) to be a roving acoustic-izer.
Thanks for dropping in. Hope to see you at a show sometime.
i realise you get loads of posts a day, but i was just wondering, int he video for Fort Hood are they your photos? Just a question I have been pondering.
Thanks for playing on Mountain Stage this sunday!! it was Great to see you perform live in WV =) feel free to take a look at my pictures from that nite... i went a lil over board on clicking the camera .. hope you enjoy them
You brought the rock to Buffalo and you were fantastic as always. Thanks for putting up with my drunken babble. Im the guy with the Ruby vroom tatoo. Whenever I attend your shows and get drunk I believe that you are actually interested in whatever it is I'm saying, so thanks for being polite. Hope to see you back here soon. No I'm not really going to get the "El Oso" bear tatoo.
So you need more Jennifers. Go to my page and add my daughter "Jennifer Doughty" from my friends list. I would tell her to add you but her computer is down. By the way my name is Bill (PEACE) Doughty. I am a bass player from Mississippi. I sent you a friends add too.
