Amanda Palmer Instagram – A personal announcement so important I even put on lipstick for it people.
Hi Boston. I’ve moved back home.
Sorry for all the vague-posting lately but it’s been a…strange summer. It’s a long story and it didn’t all fit here, so please go read it on my patreon, where the post is free to the public. Link in stories.
Here’s the important bit:
After almost twenty years of non-stop travel and hotels and couch-surfing and tour busses, then living out of a suitcase in Aotearoa New Zealand for two and a half years (after getting waylaid there in 2020 when COVID hit), then living in a bit of a temporary stone hallway in Woodstock, New York, for two years…I’m finally at home base. Safe and sound here in good ol’ puritan New England and ready to freak out the locals. Ash just started 4th (🤯) grade here.
I’m going to mother a lot, and I’m going to write a lot now that I’m finally home.
I’m excited to be talking with the @mitpress about upcoming hijinx, and I’m still an affiliate at the @bkcharvard center…I’m looking forward to keep helping make the internet a better place.
My piano is getting tuned. The Cloud Club is under reconstruction in the wake of Lee’s death.
And YOU, hometown?
Man Ray has opened back up. 🥀Café Pamplona is gone. ☕️😭
Where is everybody going for music, eating, coffee-ing, exploring?
Tell me. Where are my gays, house parties, where do we cold plunge, where my people with kiddos, my weird solo moms and dads…where is everybody LIVING? Where did people flee during covid? Who is living in a lighthouse and wants to invite me over for chowder?
If you see me: you know the drill. Say hi and if you need a hug, ask. I’m open for business. If I’m with my kid, use your head. I love being connected. But if I’m kissing a boo-boo or looking like a harried mom who can’t talk, gimme a second. Ash is shier than I am. Give him space. You’re my village. Have my back.
I’ve got three shows: this Saturday (Sept 21) at the Acadamy of Music in Northampton (solo piano), then Nov 1 & 2 with The @dresdendolls @roadrunnerboston with @GogolBordello from NYC.
In the words of our local hero @richman_jonathan:
I’m in love with Massachusetts.
Radio on.
