I've set out on a book tour for Listen to This. I gave my "Chacona, Lamento" talk last night at Seattle's Town Hall; I'm going on to Portland today, for a reading at the great Powell's Books. Tomorrow night I'll speak at Berkeley's Cal Performances; appearances to follow in Sacramento, Los Angeles, and Santa Barbara. I had a lovely time at Town Hall, and am grateful to all those who came out to watch me dance the chacona and get the Led out, as it were.
