Wahey! Edinburgh Castle. That'll do nicely. Thanks for the info guys. :D :razz: :lol:
Race you for tickets! The Playhouse would be good but the castle is probably better for the spectacle, as long as it is a nice night.

I'm very excited, but also very confused! The schedule says he's playing Aliset Stadium in Oslo. Only problem: There's no such place! Can anyone confirm where he's really playing?!

"Open air" in Helsingborg, Sweden... Well, I think I'll wait for the closed venues. ;-) *may there be some*
And why are you so quiet now, standing there in the doorway?

I'm so happy that he's doing a Scottish date, I'm willing to put aside my hatred of Edinburgh for one night to venture there for the show :D

I assume it's an indoor show at the jazz festival, but is it a large place or small (under 3000 seats)?
Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier has 2,990 seats - the largest of the venues at Place des Arts. And yes it is an indoor show. See it here: http://www.pda.qc.ca/infos/informations ... er.fr.html

I can't wait to go see him!

Yes, let's hope so.
I was a little surprised not seeing either Stockholm or Gothenburg.

And has anyone ever heard of Aliset Stadium? I actually don't know any concert arena in Oslo other than Spektrum.

Anyway, wonderful news that he is actually going on tour:) Big thanks to everyone involved.
