Me too...but figured one in the house was enough. She started singing "Stick your head in the microwave and get yourself a tan..." over and over after I showed her the designs and asked which one she wanted.

I am really hoping there are some ALbum t-shirts for sale like the Off The Deep End one on the website, but other albums. Album shirts are awesome and this would be the perfect tour to have some new choices. Black shirts are way better too. UHF cover on black would be wicked!! White is just useless when you drink coffee and stuff.
What a racket they're makin', Jack, they keep me up at night playin' their electric guitars!!

Black shirts suck when you have 4 cats!

Those are awesome! Can't wait to see and get my hands on all the new merchandise!

Al, do you want me to just sign over my paychecks to you, or should I set up some kind of direct deposit thing?

I figured by now you two had some sort of subscription service.

Besides putting stuff like the tours merch on his twitter, I haven't seen anything promoting it.
When he was preparing to go on his Mandatory Fun tour, he'd make appearances on game shows and talk shows where they'd mention it.
That's actually how I found out about it and ended up going twice.

It's looking like he doesn't want anybody to go.

The tour already has a bunch of sold out dates and its still 6 weeks away. Plenty of time for him to go on shows. I'm sure he will end up on Fallon.

True.
I was thinking that maybe he only wanted fans that liked him enough to be familiar with his originals and liked him enough to follow his social media.
It would be understandable that he wouldn't want people to judge all of his concerts by this one, especially since he's been doing big productions for years and he knows that they're crowd pleasers.
No matter how many times he tries to explain the anomaly of this tour, some people might still walk away saying, "Wow, that sucked, he didn't play any parodies."
