Release and Promotion
Graveyard Mountain Home was released on November 8, 2004 by InsideOut Music. A special edition of the album, including a DVD with the film Age 13 on it, was also released. Moore originally planned to tour in support of Graveyard Mountain Home, but nothing materialized. In a 2005 interview, Moore said he was still trying to organize a tour. He was optimistic that he would play "at least a couple shows", but noted that getting the funding to tour made the process "a constant battle".
Moore performed his first solo show at a small club in Istanbul on March 23, 2007. The hour-long show consisted primarily of material from Graveyard Mountain Home, which was accompanied by projections of the corresponding scenes from Age 13. "I thought that it would be good for the first show to be sort of small and comfortable... so I thought we just have a hundred people," Moore said. "Everybody can see, everybody can be comfortable and sort of enjoy themselves. And if something goes horribly wrong, it only happens in front of a hundred people." Moore hoped the show would form the basis of more elaborate, longer shows. He planned on playing more shows in Turkey, before touring Europe and the rest of the world.

Famous quotes containing the words release and/or promotion:
“We read poetry because the poets, like ourselves, have been haunted by the inescapable tyranny of time and death; have suffered the pain of loss, and the more wearing, continuous pain of frustration and failure; and have had moods of unlooked-for release and peace. They have known and watched in themselves and others.”
—Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)
“I am asked if I would not be gratified if my friends would procure me promotion to a brigadier-generalship. My feeling is that I would rather be one of the good colonels than one of the poor generals. The colonel of a regiment has one of the most agreeable positions in the service, and one of the most useful. “A good colonel makes a good regiment,” is an axiom.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
