| Between March 31 and May 8 of 2004, Josh Ritter and his band toured the U.S. They performed 32 shows in 28 different cities. New songs, new fans, even a new drummer. It was a huge success, thanks to the Josh Ritter Street Team, the fans turning out in droves, and of course the music of Josh Ritter getting out there.... |
| The highlight of the tour was when Josh and the band ventured back east at the tour's end -- not just because I could go, but because a six show run was a co-bill with the amazing Erin McKeown, and culminated in the epic, sold-out concert at the legendary Bowery Ballroom in New York City. Here are some pics and other treats from four of the"East Coast Shows" I attended... |
 |
| Somerville Theatre Boston, MA - 4/23/04 |
| Iron Horse Music Hall Northampton, MA - 4/25/04 |
| Theater of Living Arts Philadelphia, PA - 4/28/04 |
| The Bowery Ballroom New York, NY - 5/1/04 |
| Josh and the band play to a sold-out audience in their adopted hometown. This is the first show of six with Erin McKeown... |
| Two shows at this great listening room; Josh and Erin again get together for a duet (with special appearance by Sam), which would become a staple over the six shows... |
| Another great night of music. Highlight is an extended jam between Sam and Erin during Erin's song "Blackbirds" - something they'd get even better at for Bowery Ballroom... |
| Classic night. Band and fans have been waiting for a Josh Ritter show here for a long time - and it was worth the wait. Josh Ritter has officially arrived. |
