It took some time, and a struggle with Windows Moviemaker, but I've just finished putting together a video that will give you a taste of our recent tour experience. Come along on a virtual joyride from Heathrow Airport to the backstreets of Haren, Belgium. Madness meets music....enjoy!
As you may have heard, our last Tangle-Free Tour of Europe ended up being a little - well, tangled. We landed at Heathrow Airport on April 15th, the day of the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano eruption, and spent the next several days knocking around London, trying to find a way to reach our gigs on the continent. Sadly, several shows had to be canceled, but once we did reach our destination (via the Stena Line Ferry), the venues were fantastic, the food delicious, the people we met especially lovely. The experience was challenging, sometimes stressful, but ultimately a testament to the community of music, the kindness of strangers and the value of grace under pressure.
Not to be daunted, I’m undertaking booking our next European tour, aiming for stops in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and the UK, beginning in February 2011. No volcanoes allowed! Once again, Nelson Bragg and I will be joined by the fantastic Roland Wolff of Riviera. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for venues; we would love to come to your town! If you’re not on the e-mail list, please join now so we can keep you posted on the dates near you.
This is my brand new website! It has many more features than my old site, and should be easier to navigate and easier for me to update. Please sign up for my e-mail list if you're not on it already, and feel free to leave a note on how you like the new site and what I can do to improve it.
WEBSITE-ONLY OFFER - Altho I'd still like you to purchase CDs from my online partners to give them all some love, you can now buy two very cool Souvenir Posters directly from this website through PayPal. I'll even autograph them for you! You'll find them on the 'Buy' page, take a look!
ALSO...currently planting seeds for the next tour of Europe/UK - this will come about in February/March of next year, so keep in touch...!
Thanks! Anny
