SPOUT - THE END - ALL AGES
"THE HOFFMAN PROPHECIES"
Nashville, TN

After our meeting with Hoffman Entertainment - New York went so well at our show in Lexington the previous month, we were asked  to schedule a show in Nashville for early December for them to fly down and catch. 

We didn't have time to book our usual late night rock show, so we booked an early all ages show with us as the opener so we could go out and have a dinner meeting afterwards. 

The kids came, the adults came, the rock came, 
our friends from Hoffman came,   
hell, Ron Jeremy came. (somewhere in America I'm sure)

Eventually the food, the wine, and *drumroll*.....

"Spout" is now represented by 
Hoffman Entertainment.

We are very excited about this!
We've been holding out on management for quite some time with numerous offers, even contracts on the table over fancy dinners, but we always knew we wanted to wait and hold out for someone we all could believe in.

Hoffman Entertainment represents only a handful of artists, but within those include John Mellencamp, Thalia, Heather Hedley, and the Jackass-famed rock band CKY.  They've also managed Mariah Carey in her prime and Julio Iglesias.

We look forward to a great relationship with our new friends from New York who want what we want.... to spread this music to as many people across the world as possible.

PERSONAL RANT TIME.  PAY NO MIND.
Something way less important - but funny.

The lead singer of the band Totemsoul, who we invited out to follow us this show, decided to take my cell phone back to KY with him, saying he thought it was his drummer's.  Hey, no big deal, right?.. he promised to mail it back first thing that Monday. I just asked him to simply mail it before I leave town for the holidays.  Well he didn't...and after 20 emails and 15 phone calls to KY from me, he  still hasn't.
Hence, the rant.

You never know how many important things rely on people being able to contact you when they're used to finding you via your cell phone - especially family during the holidays - especially when you are traveling through 6 states with no means of communication without it.  Hell, it even causes you to miss your girlfriend's mom's graduation from nursing school... because hey, I'm not getting these messages!

At least the $50 bill for this month came thru the mail just fine.

So, until I do get the actual phone, 
here's a "fuck you bitch, until I get my shit back" shot-out!
