I&#8217;m updating my show schedule right here on the very same desktop that this blogpost is being created on. I&#8217;m getting SUPER excited as I look at these life-sharing nights ahead. I want to take a minute to highlight a few of the dates:</p> <p>APRIL 1- DAMION SUOMI &amp; the MINOR PROPHETS album release at the SOCIAL in Orlando (details at <a href="http://www.thesocial.org" target="_blank">www.thesocial.org</a> )</p> <p>I couldn&#8217;t believe more in a pack of articulate-wild-dawg-rag-tag-rawkers than DS &amp; the MINOR PROPHETS. This is honestly going to be a night you will literally kick yourself &amp; probably be kicked by all of your friends if you miss it. So, save yourself some kicking and make it to this!</p> <p>MARCH 25-APRIL 23 KELLEY MCRAE &amp; LAURIS VIDAL SOUTHEAST TOUR- there are way too many shows in this to highlight. So many are shaping up to be all-time, just watch our calendars &amp; social media updates CLOSELY &amp; don&#8217;t miss any show within 2 hours of you, you&#8217;re gonna love this.</p> <p>APRIL 24-MAY 14- LAURIS VIDAL SOLO tour- I&#8217;m going to hit all of my favorite towns &amp; venues mostly to work out the songs for a new album &amp; share them with you.</p> <p>There is actually a few more tour dates coming after this, but I&#8217;ll just keep it to this. Thanks for reading friends, see you soon! Be well -LV</p>http://laurisvidal.com/post/3765570819http://laurisvidal.com/post/3765570819Thu, 10 Mar 2011 12:16:51 -0500DAMION SUOMIGASOLINE HEARTLOUIS DEFABRIZIOKELLEY MCRAETHESOCIAL.ORGDAMION SUOMI AND THE MINOR PROPHETS<p>This is gonna be fun, with both myself &amp; PF touring behind new albums, I will be opening for PF on 5 of their FL shows.
