Ah I didn't realise they were doing all those masterclasses during the week, that explains why they all looked so knackered and uninterested at the Hertford gig !!

 

Oh dear - that good huh? :bored:

 

More Nick Dates in 2013 ...

and very strange to see, that his website is more up to date than this forum ?!?

Lots more dates : http://harperspace.com/nick-harper-tour.html

 

Sorry Chris, I'd normally put up dates here too but I've barely been online this week when I had time and I forgot :blushing: Anyone else is welcome to put up stuff too! I'll update the first post with the latest now...

 

Last weekend's postponed gig and new date added :biggrin:

 

Some confusion now with venue double bookings for the Scottish dates in April - a few more dates are now TBC, hope to have more info soon :bored:

 

And 3 are now gone :bored:
Guess the lesson is, please come along to Glasgow, Edinburgh and Gateshead and get your tix now!!

 

Nick is no longer playing Berkofest on 14 September - or it may be cancelled altogether!

 

Katiesfest now seems to be called the Stourbridge Folk Festival and has moved from Saturday 22 June to Sunday 7 September - tix now on sale for a bargain £22.50! (WeGotTix link above )

Oh and there's a few new Scottish gigs organised since the last update - PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS. AND YOUR ENEMIES

 

MORE DATES. MORE EXCITEMENT :m8:

 

Ooh I wonder if there's any chance that we could get Gareth Forsyth to play at the same gig, as he has now moved back from Clonakilty to his home town of Malvern - Not sure if Nick knows Gareth, but they have a lot in common !?!

http://www.myspace.com/garethforsyth

 

Always worth asking if the promoter knows Gareth you kinda need to know where the gig is first

 

Well I sent Gareth a message via facebook, asking him if he would want me to ask Nick or the promoter, but Gareth hasn't replied - his loss ( & mine, cos I would have made the trip to see both of them, not worth it for just Nick ).

 

More gigs up! Looks like this autumn is going to be very busy around the album release...

 

Did I say more gigs? MORE MORE GIGS. Including IRELAND, Chris

 

Ireland is good ... but only a couple of weeks after the Clon Guitar Festival, means it's pretty unlikely for me ... there's no way I can go in July, Aug, Sept & now October ... or is there (!?) and spooky enough my new year ( for holidays ) starts on October 1st !!

 

SEE it's a sign!!

 

Well there's tentative dates/towns for Ireland added :biggrin:

 

can't imagine what he'll be feeling like when be gets to Belfast, after a Friday night in DeBarras ( hope he's bring a chauffeur ) !!
