It Begins...

Hello nurse,

Tonight is the first rehearsal for the Slouching Towards Bethlehem show, which I have playfully dubbed "Slouching Towards Branson."

A test audience of Patreon members will be coming together at Backroom Studios in New Jersey, and I'll be doing the show (to the best of my ability) for them and using the experience to fine tune what I have prepared. If you've got a ticket to it, make sure you bring it with you, along with some ID! Please be ready to have your bags "checked" and your mobile devices turned off and locked away during the run-through. If you're not comfortable with that, please let me know, and I'll refund your ticket plus fees.

I'll likely be asking for feedback afterward, so feel free to stick around for a discussion post-performance. Anyone who wants photos/signatures/whatever is more than welcome to ask. Make sure to respect the venue and staff!

Please be patient with me tonight, because I am a mess.

I had what was supposed to be a very small surgery last Monday, but it turned out to be rather significant, (they took out all of my bones) so I'm in a bit of pain and slightly limited in mobility. I may also have to take a painkiller, so if that's the case I might also be temporarily an idiot. So please bear with me if I seem a little off-kilter, I can't miss the opportunity to test the show out for y'all but I might not be able to hide the owies. Also I like meeting fans and wouldn't miss it for the world. Well, maybe not the world, I won't kiss ass that hard, I'd miss it for a date or a birthday or like a doctor's appointment if I was worried enough. Or like if my dad said so.

Also I'm still working on the show, so there's that. If you're expecting a tight and polished performance, you're a buffool. Which is a cross between a buffoon and fool, and you don't want to be even one of those let alone such an embarrassing combination of the two. 

If any of you are ordained, please bless my Tylenol so that it may protect me. If you bring me cake, I will go "yahoo" like Super Mario and give you a chummy pat on the back. If you bring a cold ice pack, I'll let you meet Shayfer James. Otherwise he will remain in his sarcophagus behind three-inch-thick glass and mustn't be disturbed lest ye carry with you a dark and accursed cloud of pestilence for all your remaining days and nights. He's a mummy in this joke, I don't know why. Please note I have NOT taken my painkillers yet, so you can see why I am hesitating to.

P.S. there is a secret code hidden in this post, solving it will earn you the title of Most Gullible Yet Clever Gooseball. (Gooseballs is what I call my fans. Not woodworms or whatever. It's Gooseballs or College Girls)

No homo,
Will Woog

fascinating. reminder for myself to look into this posr. ans not die. in the morning

Aw thanks! If meeting little old me (in a great big world) was nice, imagine how I frikkin’ felt! Sounds crazy but Sunday really was a dream come true for me! I could’ve chatted to you guys forever but you have so much going on right now (and, even at my age, I was a bit star-struck and tongue-tied😳). Would be great if you could both make it to England if/when you have some downtime. I could even sort out some smaller venue gigs if Will ever fancied it. Take care of each other and I’m sure I’ll see you again one way or another xxx

Michael Dabrowski

Was so nice to meet you at the show!!

Christa

It was absolutely wonderful from the moment he parked up, greeting his fans with a nonchalant “Hi guys!” to his farewell handshakes. So patient and polite when he must have been quite exhausted. Such a privilege to be in his and Chris’ company and feel that I’ve actually met ‘The Real Will Wood’. They are something so special; the world needs more people like them🥰🥰🥰 Reckon the show will be a big success😎 Thanks for your help x

Michael Dabrowski

How was it?

Wendy Bullinger

It’ll be cool for you to see the finished/evolving show on Thu. Hope you enjoy Graham Nash - he should have some amazing anecdotes. ‘Our House’ - what a gem of a song!

Michael Dabrowski

Enjoy the stay. The venue is a easy Uber ride from the motel. I am almost 3 hours away, and I'm seeing him in Vermont on Thursday so I won't be there. Also, I am seeing Graham Nash tomorrow.

Wendy Bullinger

Touched down 20 mins ago…🇺🇸👏🏻

Michael Dabrowski

I’m at JFK. Just gotta figure out how to get to NJ! Will posted: “…since I opened up a few more slots and we're down to the wire, I figured I'd open the invitation back up to everyone in the top tiers, including folks who came to the first one.” so if there are any tickets left seems you’re welcome. Thank for being so invested/supportive🥰

Michael Dabrowski

No because he requested people not come twice to allow for more people to see it. I'm invested in your journey so post when you arrive

Wendy Bullinger

Gill Good

Was meant to fly over today but the Homeland Security app messed things up and I stood watching the plane take off with my empty seat😥 I’m now arriving tomorrow (Sat 5pm JFK). Had to pay entire fare again😱 but tbh I’m just happy to be going. You booked the second show now that WW’s opened it up?

Michael Dabrowski

Are you here yet?

Wendy Bullinger

The mid text, boundary establishing point, is so goddamn funny but true. I hope you guys enjoyed!~

Happy Clown

chicken wint mang

Christopher V.

Btw I'm also 64

Wendy Bullinger

I did! I did! Although I’m struggling to retrieve it from the Eventbrite app. Yeah, we have Ramada hotels here too - they’re basic but who cares, I’M GONNA SEE WILL FRIKKIN WOOD! Thanks Wendy you wonderful human being🥰

Michael Dabrowski

Did you get a ticket? We stayed at that same motel. It's not fancy, but clean and close to the venue!

Wendy Bullinger

OMG Wendy, I’m actually coming to the US. Thanks for your encouragement🥰

Michael Dabrowski

The old man saved multiple kidney stones in an old retainer case. Did you get to keep a couple fragments? I regret not asking my surgeon to save a bit of my septum, which I finally had repaired or couple of the burrs he ground out of C5-6 & C6-7.

The Momur

I was experiencing jealousy on a level I hadn’t known existed. And now I have a ticket!😛😛😛

Michael Dabrowski

If anyone has direct access to Mr Wood, please implore him to heed my desperate pleas below. I’ll donate whatever he likes to his favourite charity. Even a kidney…

Michael Dabrowski

Thanks so much Wendy! Problem is I’m asleep in England when you guys are posting. If you spot anything hopeful, I’ll pay you top dollar as my err, ‘agent’ and buy you lunch or Will Wood merch when ‘if/when I make it’…❤️

Keep checking, someone released 2 tickets last night for next week's show

Wendy Bullinger

so can we see your bones now

harpsichord

are you willing to give hints i am trying so hard right now

Mouker

Hope you and tonight’s lucky audience had a blast. TRAGICALLY August’s Tier 4/5 post was languishing in my junk for a month before I dug it up😭 I’m a huge fan living in England (actually only 5’8”) and will do ANYTHING for just one ticket to next week’s dress rehearsal. I have my passport/airfare ready, checked out the cheapo Rockaway Ramada and am desperately hoping you can find some way to justify one more Tier 5 acolyte. I play/produce music myself and will:would do anything to be there and help out before/on/after the event. The age restriction is no problem - I’m fucking 64 with Memento Mori already scheduled for my funeral. I’ve taught my stepdaughter so many of your songs on the piano/baritone uke and cried like a baby each time I’ve introduced Euthanasia to my friends. What more can I do? (not rhetorical) 🙏 🙏 🙏ps apologies for posting this in 3 threads - I’m just desperate…

Michael Dabrowski

Thank you for the show, Will Woog, it was a delight to meet you. Thank you again for not forcing me to weep in front of everyone, and for the lovely story. See you again in DeCember, which is a clever combination of DC and December.

Alex Burgs Peace
