You can follow all of the frolicking fun and hijinx on our Tour Web Diary, which is being updated to let you share our "on the road" Experiences. Here is an excerpt from a recent entry.... "A belated report on the Roxbury, NY show on Saturday, April 12 ....... We hit the road an hour behind schedule, which is apparently about 3 hours earlier than usual. Raja and Tanya followed the van in Raja's car, which meant the van was luxuriously roomy......... Philomena was driving, Kinko was sitting shotgun, fooling around with a boom box so we'd have some tunes (we are supposed to be buying a CD player for the van once we hit North Carolina, but until then it's boom box or sing). Then there was Adam, Jenny, Matt, Tim, and me, Miss Construe..... You can read the rest of the "unedited" entry by visiting us at http://cirkus.blogspot.com/. You can read our diary, see comments from those that have attended our shows and leave your own message of support to our touring troupe. NEW TOUR DATES ADDED!
