Backstory: As part of the Minor Fits crowdfunding campaign, I offered a four-issue special edition of Tallboy magazine, and now the offer is available to you, too. Wait…what is it? It’s hand-crafted, artisanal literature in the old-school punk ‘zine tradition. (That’s fancy-talk for “stories I’ve told on stage, scans of lyrics directly from my notebooks, the history behind the songs, and more.”) If you want in, you will receive FOUR issues by end of 2018 (two are already out, but we’ll catch you up), plus a free download of AC/DC’s “You Shook Me All Night Long,” from the Minor Fits sessions. That URL again: https://mikeerrico.bandcamp.com/merch/subscription-to-tallboy-magazine-quarterly AND OF COURSE, THE MUSIC KEEPS COMING (FYI: The largest selection of my work on ANY platform is on Bandcamp. This includes deluxe editions, unreleased live tracks, podcasts, singles, and all of that. That’s the motherlode.)and of course, you can:STREAM ON SPOTIFY (check out playlists, too) STREAM ON APPLE MUSIC (if you can figure it out, that...

Final tally. Guys, this was amazing. I did not know what would happen, or whether you’d even be into the crowdfunding thing, and it exceeded every expectation. There are a couple of house concerts we still need to schedule, and I’m always open to book more, especially now that I know you want them. Hit me up. If you missed the crowdfunding deadline, I’ve decided to keep making and selling some of the hotter items: BUY MERCHANDISE (Lyric prints, signed lithographs, T-shirts, subscription to Tallboy magazine, etc.) BUY MUSIC (The largest selection of my work on ANY platform, includes deluxe editions, unreleased live tracks, podcasts, singles, and more) or STREAM ON SPOTIFY (check out playlists, too) STREAM ON APPLE MUSIC (if you can figure it out, that is…) I’ve loved hanging with you, getting you the new stuff and preparing the next stuff from a much stronger place. So. Happy tears, for real. This has been gratifying, validating, and inspiring. Thank you for that. Here’s to a great 2018....

Folks: The CDs, T-Shirts, and lithographs are out. Tallboy magazine is on Issue #2. Many of the house concerts have been played, and the Omens are in the mail. This has been the most gratifying year of my career. Your support of Minor Fits has been overwhelming, and I’ll never forget it. But bars must eventually announce last call, vampires must return to their crypts, and campaigns must come to an end, so: THE MIKE ERRICO CROWDFUNDING PAGE WILL CLOSE ON JANUARY 1 This means that it’s time to take your last looks. No matter what you buy, I hope you’ll pick up your free downloads of the new album; the new recording of “Daylight”; the full-blown cover of AC/DC’s “You Shook Me All Night Long”; the deluxe edition of Pictures of the Big Vacation; and the Minor Fits demos. It’s been gratifying to be able to give all this stuff to you. Especially since you helped me make it. So. That’s it! Take a look around. One more T-shirt? Lyric prints look cooler than you thought? Now’s the time. Thanks again. Let’s have a great 2018. Cheers,...

Hey: If you found this page, good on you. Chances are you’re here because you are going/went to the 2017 Mike Errico Holiday Show and might have some footage of the day/evening to share. Nice work! I had an idea… I’d like to see if we can compile ALL of our footage, and create something cool out of it. So, here’s what to do: – Have fun at the show – Take whatever photos, video, etc. Pre-game. Post-game — you call it. – Take the footage and GO HERE. (It’s a simple Dropbox folder, FYI.) – Upload what you got (I also left a couple gifts for you to take…examples of the kind of thing we can end up with – shh) – Let’s see what happens! CREDIT: You can title the content you upload in the filename so I’ll know who to thank at the end of whatever gets made. You’ll be able to see what happens at #holidayomens Could this go wrong? Everything, potentially, can go wrong. Can it go right? Not to sound like a yogi or anything, but it can’t go right unless it actually GOES. Real talk, people. SO, AGAIN: THAT URL IS HERE. Take shots. Upload. Let’s see what happens! Thanks for playing...
