This All Encompassing Trip - The Book *Back in stock*

edited February 2012 in The Porch
Just following up on my interview on the Sirius XM roundtable show last night with The Rob and Tim who, by the way, are doing a fantastic job. It's not easy to coordinate a talk show that broadcasts from New York with the hosts located in both Seattle and San Fran, the guest calling in from London, and band members calling in from Los Angeles and interrupting in the studios all at the same time. Thanks for having me on the show and it was pleasure to share tour experiences and the details about my book.

In case you missed it, the book is called:
This All Encompassing Trip - Chasing Pearl Jam Around The World

Available for order at http://www.ThisAllEncompassingTrip.com

There's more information about the book including a video trailer that Vedder said he really enjoyed (on the show). It's a good overall travel book for anyone, but if you're a Pearl Jam fan, you'll love it. At the very least, it makes a great xmas gift. So check it out on there and feel free to shoot me an email if you have any questions at <!-- e --><a href="mailto:jason@touringvan.com">jason@touringvan.com</a><!-- e -->

Oh and $1 from every order from this website will go to the Wishlist Foundation :)

Also, keep up to date with all the news, including book signing events and photos on the facebook page.
http://www.facebook.com/ThisAllEncompassingTrip

Books are shipped worldwide both from the US AND the UK!

thanks
Jason

    I just finished up the book myself Jason. Great book. Very entertaining and well-written. Of course I'm green with envy from your travels and experiences. Question though, where can I find the "Touring Van DVD" that I kept reading about? Would love to get a video experience of your travels as well!
    Cheers!

    Jason, job very well done, sir. Last time I talked to you, I had seen you had a piece picked up on Current - I believe you were in Iceland? Anyway, I'll definitely be ordering this - good shit. Can't wait to read the part on the Philly tailgate scene in its entirety.

    And on an unrelated/related note, you went to the wrong cheesesteak joints. :mrgreen:

    Thanks Laura,
    We're eventually going to shift everyone over to Amazon. But for now, please still order from the book's website http://www.ThisAllEncompassingTrip.com

    We have no control over the orders on Amazon or any other places that are selling the book as they are not through us. So they will not be contributing a $1 to the Wishlist Foundation, only orders from the website will. Our goal is to raise $1000 for Wishlist and we are a quarter of the way there :) Excellent work people!

    Jason

    It's as flattering to you as it could be, give or take a few f bombs that you dropped :)

    I'm halfway through the book and am loving it - I thoroughly recommend it, however it should come with a warning that you could end up spending a 'small' fortune after reading it as it's making me want to see as many shows as possible the very next time they tour! :D
    That's the best way to spend £$€ though, right?!

    this is incredibly cool, thanks for sharing.
    i'm a longtime fan, but new to the community, and i cant get over the love and kindness around here. i only wish i was part of that epic trip too, 'cause it looks like it was pretty darn amazing!

    On a side note, i think you may have met my sister recently, but i could be wrong. She was in the midst of apt. renos a few weeks back, and described to me how she met this huge PJ fan. And honestly, i didn't think much of it at the time, but as i was browsing your website i couldn't help but notice so many similarities. I mean, aside from living in the same city and all ;)

    EDIT: I forgot to edit this awhile back...but it was actually another PJ fan my sister met, starts with a 'C'. Sorry for any confusion :oops:
