Re: 2023 Tour! (dates posted)

Re: Looking for a miracle for a lost friend

Wow.

Way to go That Beat.

Andrew Duplantis Fan Club

LA loves their Jay Farrar shows. Please keep ‘em coming. If you live in a part of the country that Jay rarely ever tours, consider moving. Personally, I wanted to say how great the constant of having bassist Andrew Duplantis next to Jay over the past 17 years is. I appreciate the back up vocals, the...

welcome to Pioneertown

Let's make the trek and keep our distance.
