While songwriter and new non-smoker Scout Niblett prepares to tell North Americans that This Fool Can Die Now on October 9 (October 15 for Europeans), she has scheduled a fall tour of the continent to hammer the point home.

Even more dates are forthcoming, but as it stands now, the tour begins in Portland on October 9, preceded only by a British festival date on September 14. She'll return to the UK after she's done with North America for a handful of dates in November.

Finally, Niblett needs help from a fan and his/her camera to shoot the video for This Fool's first single. She lays the situation out clearly in a MySpace blog entry printed below in its unmodified entirety:

"i need you and your camera.

i need someone to shoot the video for the upcoming single from my next album.

i have a story board already mapped out. i just need a d.o.p

please send me a message if you are able and willing with links to clips you've shot already.

it will take place in the next 6 weeks somewhere in the US."

The post ran a few weeks back, so be advised that Niblett may have found her person already.
