Recently I got an email about pre-sale tickets for a Josh Gates Live tour. My first thought was, “Josh Gates on tour?” My second was, “Here? In Nashville?”
I briefly wondered about the price, but unless it was some cuckoo crazy outrageous one, they’d be worth just about anything. (They’re actually super reasonably priced. $35-55! As of this post, there were a few closer to the stage between $149-170, though.)
Like Stephen King did when his tour stopped in Nashville, Josh Gates will appear at the historic, storied (and haunted!) Ryman Auditorium in downtown Nashville. (Unlike Stephen King, though, Gates’ tickets are more affordable. King’s were $200+ on up. Even if I’d been able to afford them, however, it wouldn’t have mattered. King’s sold out fast.)
Josh Gates will be here in Nashville on March 1. (I’m going!)
But then I wondered where else he’d be touring. Here’s what I found out:

Have you ever seen Josh Gates on tour? Would you like to?
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
