Happy Day of Motherhood and Appreciation of Motherhood, all ye born of women. MC Frontalot is more in the MacDuff category, which makes him all the more thankful for his mom. He advises you to make your customary phone call or bouquet delivery. And tell mom that Front reminded you. Front needs some points with your mom.

Last night's gig (stop #2 on the Nerdcore Rising 2006 tour) rocked Mount Pleasant! Or rocked it has hard as one can when taking the stage in a bar in a strip mall. Front wishes to thank the several devoted nerdcore aficionados who hollered loudly for multiple encores.

Tonight it is Chapel Hill! You coming?

Keep track of Front's daily tour posts on the BBS, available to members of the vsp.

Front and his band (including new drummer The Sturgenius) are almost ready to hit the road! They are in Blak Lotus & Gm7's old Brooklyn basement, rocking it out at Set List Boot Camp. DJ CPU Mark II has his samples loaded. The van is gassed up. The tour is about to begin.

You know about the tour, right? Have we been lax in our public relations chores?

If you have the means, join a "street team" in one of the tour's destination towns. Click here for posters and flyers. Call your nearest alternative newsweekly and college radio station and request info about MCF coming to town (this makes them feel like they should know about it and/or exhibit this knowledge publicly... pretty sneaky, right?). Talk the show up at your local library, gaming shop, and optician's waiting room.

Front would like to thank everyone who has made the tour possible. But if he did it on the front page of his site it would injure his bandwidth quota. He does owe a shout to Bortwein for doing design on the 1st round of posters. And he offers thanks in advance to his Houston and Fort Worth fans four drowning out whatever boos may come from the back of the bar when he does Special Delivery.

Cheers all! Dispatches to appear from the road as time permits.

Front is doing a public meet & greet at Forbidden Planet comics in NYC (Broadway & 13th). Everyone who shows up can put one word on a list and then on the bus ride home he will write a rap that has all the words in it. Later, he will make a recording of it. Also, the person who puts in the best word (judge of best word: Front, duh) gets a signed Penny Arcade Expo 2005 DVD. There will be shirts and CDs too.

AND MC HAWKING WILL BE THE SPECIAL SURPRISE GUEST! DON'T TELL ANYBODY.

Monday May 1st
8-9PM
MC Frontalot chats you up and signs things
Forbidden Planet
840 Broadway (at 13th)
New York, NY

Tell a friend! There's going to be a UK TV crew there and if it looks like Front has no fans it will be kind of pathetic. Though reasonably accurate.
