Hello my loves.

I know it looks light, but these Monopoly games can get CUTTHROAT, especially as we explain greed, sunk cost fallacy, cheating, patience, late stage capitalism, and mitigated risk to an eight year old. It's good, it's good. He's getting it.

Does the monopoly look small? It is. It's travel sized.

Meanwhile, MY FALL SOLO SHOWS JUST WENT ON SALE this morning at 10am. All the shows are now ON SALE TO THE PUBLIC at amandapalmer.net/events

....

As I said on most of these socials posts:

Light in the dark. Dark in the light. Time to tour. Time to play shows. Time to play songs for people in the flesh. Music will save the day. Songs will do, for me, for us (?), what words cannot.

Oh my loves, mannn. Damn what a moment on earth. How are you all feeling?

If you’re feeling like me, it’s the ultimate collision right now of deep despair facing off against massive sparks of electric hope, of blinding light flickering fast in a room of matte black. The effects are disorienting. I find the songs are getting me through the night.

In the thick of all this, I’m gonna tour, and…right before the election. It’s a good time to get out there. The internet can only do so much. I need to keep it local, so I hope people can travel for these. The halls are some of the most beautiful in the tri-state area (swipe to see).

The amazing deep-heart-artist and my new-found friend Niki McQueen Art, made this custom lighthouse + piano painting for this upcoming set of solo shows.

I’ll be playing a wide variety of old and brand-new material and talking with you all as usual. I need to community, and you all need to be together, so just come.

Three shows only. This art will be made into special merchandise at all the shows.

.................

If you want to do me a super solid, go share the beautiful art/tour posts on social media:

Here's my FB post. Go share it.

Here's my IG post. Go share it.

Here's my X/Twitter post, go share it (and yes, I don't like posting there at the moment, because fuck Elon Musk, what a fucking asshole. The guy just keeps getting creepier).

And for good measure, here's a post on THREADS, where I've been hanging a bit lately.

You can also just take this artwork and the link to the tour/tickets: https://amandapalmer.net/events

....and post whatever you want from scratch. All I ask is that you PLEASE credit the artist (Niki McQueen, very easy to find on most socials, because of her nice unique name), and tag me in as well...and if you're feeling awesome, tag in the venues.

Thank you, loves.

I appreciate the help, a lot.

It's not been an easy few weeks and it doesn't look like the fog of madness is lifting anytime soon.

These shows are really gonna help, I think, especially ion the run-up to the election, which will feel weird as hell, I am sure,.

Please come. I love you all.

Thank you for being here, thank you for being my patrons.

Feeling your efforts all the way from Nipaluna Hobart. ✨Amanda your livestream was everything, a lighthouse embodied. Doing your job is exactly the salve we need. I’ve been speaking to my band about it and mentioned it to a singer songwriter who I just heard sing in the Styx forest. I wonder if you and Sophie Strand could thing a conversation about the role of the bard at times like these.💥 This feels like a movement and reckon it would lend further fuel to the fire you are creating for us all. 🔥

There's a good deal of talk about family trauma here. Thankfully I think I'm relatively free of this... and then you bring up MONOPOLY!

Leaving the Patreon in light of how you handled the situation with Scarlett. Pretty sure you're not going to address it because I'm pretty sure you've signed a similar NDA in the process of your divorce, and even if you didn't, I understand not wanting to complicate things for Ash, but your own actions--the way you're both invested in protecting your artistic reputations more than in accountability and reparation and standing up for what you've said all these years--that's going to do more harm to Ash than anything else. I hope you both think about that.

I love you, I have followed you basically half of my life, and you brought so many positive things to my hardest years as an adolescent and early adult. I know too much now and I have to leave your Patreon following the allegations. I hope you are able to say something publicly eventually, I feel like my whole world has been torn from underneath me. I hope I’ll be able to see you and the Dolls again when you return to Oz after things are properly addressed. This breaks my heart. Farewell X
