Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains is always looking for shows in the New England area. Since we usually play all-acoustic anyway (i.e. no amplifiers, no PA system, etc), we are capable of playing a wide variety of venues, from a ditch near your house to the cool all ages club in your hometown. Get in touch if you're interested in getting us on the bill for an upcoming event. (Johnny Hobo loves show trading.)
We'll be fucking up sets at the follow times and places.
