tour4pp — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 21:42:11 +0000

Hey guys! I have a massive zit so I am not doing a vlog, nope not!

This was a fantastic show on so many levels!

First of all, the MD peeps came out, just about 200 of them! Now it’s official, we have a Planned Parenthood community in Fredrick. That is so awesome!

The staff and crew at Planned Parenthood were pumped at the volunteers were outstanding.

Sioban and Meeshele were delightful and added so much to the night. A former Miss Fredrick and a kickass alterna vegan mom and hilaritress!

Special thanks to Corey Pandolph who came to Fredrick and took these lovely photos.

You all were awesome.

So many first time donors, so many new young faces!

The pro choice movement is alive and well and kicin’ it in Maryland!

Oh, and these people showed up.

Thanks for being so lovely

Peace, Lizz

Enjoy the photos!

Some great press for the tour!

I love these two towns! Such history. We ate at the Union Oyster House in Boston and after a big Twitter debate settled upon Jimmy’s for cheese steak. More recap below. Like show and stuff…

Both Cities had big crowds and such enthusiasm. This movement is on fire and we are just beginning. Check out the new dates we have added and don’t forget I WANNA COME TO YOUR TOWN so get on the stick and help raise some dough to get me there!

Show 2: Cincinnati. Boehner Country. We owned it!

tour4pp — Tue, 12 Jul 2011 15:59:35 +0000

Cincinnati was so special. It is the hotbed of Right To Life propaganda and the media following suit gave us no support AND YET sold out show!
Planned Parenthood, Cincinnati is here for you!

Here are a few of Mindy Tuckers amazing photos. For a complete look at the tour gallery you MUST check out her website

The reviews have started coming and we are thrilled! Give a read!

I am honored and humbled at the reception we have received so far. The dedication to Planned Parenthood and the bravery of so many people being out and proud to support women in their quest to pursue their lives to the fullest.
This is a wonderful piece summarizing our goals for this tour!
