Tonight's early birds for the meet and greet. It ended up going for forty-five minutes and I had to run to the stage! The end of set #2. What a brilliant audience in New Haven, Connecticut.

February 27, Brooklyn, New York - Brooklyn Paramount

Somentimes, life is a mind blowing experience. You wake up in New York, step outside for breakfast, and as you wait to cross the street you see a billboard. WOW! Now I have a Frank Sinatra song stuck in my head.

Getting the venue, The Paramount in Brooklyn, ready for tonight's show. A look at what happens backstage.

Hope you can make it to The Paramount Theatre tonight. I'm going to be bringing out a special guest during my second set, Larry the Duck from WLIR and SiriusXM 1st Wave I might even have him join me for my FREE meet and greet when doors open at 6p, so come early. And look what I found next to my dressing room - what a bonus!

How beautiful is this theatre? Howard Jones doing his soundcheck before the show tonight.

What a night. My first time doing a public gig in Brooklyn, New York, and such an incredible crowd that were into my 'history lesson" from the first minute. Loved every second with them, they certainly made me feel so welcome.

February 28, Glenside, Pennsylvania - The Keswick Theatre

Biggest meet and greet of the tour so far! They cut the line at 200 people and I had to take two photos to try and get the huge line in. Should be a great night. Onstage in 15 minutes. My second set was out of hand!!! What a crowd, hard to put it in words. Thank you, Philly. And the mandatory end of set pic with the brilliant crowd. After tonight's show at The Keswick Theatre in Philadelphia we say goodbye to our tour buses after almost 4,000 miles. The next three nights we'll be in a hotel room and a bed that isn't moving! I'm going to kinda miss coming down from the excitement of the performances with my late night chats with Howard Jones and Martin Fry ABC, then crawling into my bunk to doze off.
