The suspense is killing me.I´m off to India again beginning of October,and am dreading the thought of missing out again!
Is there any chance of a Lisbon concert(he always does Lisbon)?? As thats where I used to live,I could always go back for a visit

That's my reading as well. Which fills me with great disappointment. I too now have a holiday booked for September/October. Which (sad though it is), was partially driven by my thoughts where the tour would be at that time. Oh well, at least I have the O2 to look forward to (? :-/) Would have loved to have welcomed Leonard back to Scotland though...

Ah so easy to get to from where i live and so nice to visit especially if leonard is playing

Jarkko has lost his 3 points after Pula in his signature.
If somebody finds them, please send them urgently to Jarkko, so he can go to more concerts.

I can't think of anything more distressing than losing those 3 little dots.

But there is still hope just as long as there is no ||

Trying to locate those three dots ---Patience needed--- Looking forward to getting something after Pula, before ||

The UK concerts will have to be over by September 19th., Zimmy - if not, those organising the Galway walking weekend beginning on that date will be very upset!

Couldn't find any cheap flights to any of the announced venues, and with the ticket prices and accommodation, decided I'd have to forgo this time. News of more UK dates is cheering.

Jarkko, have you heard any talk of a possible Glastonbury appearance? June 28-30 is free, and he was adored by the festival in 2008....

***not going to happen / Jarkko***

Hi Jarkko, any chance of a date in Switzerland (for exemple at The Montreux Jazz Festival)?

Wasn't there a rumour last year that Leonard would play Montreux again in 2013 from someone who professed to be in the know - or is my memory playing tricks on me?!

Yes there has been a rumor about it.

But every year there are rumors about the Montreux Jazz Festival and not always correct.

For example, that Tom Waits will come to play. But we are still waiting...

This year's festival program has not yet been announced.

The Montreux Jazz Festival programme will be announced April 18th.
But I'd rather see Leonard somewhere else in Switzerland. Prices at Montreux Jazz Festival are often outrageous (f.ex. this year's 3 concerts of Prince - the only concerts already announced - cost 395 CHF (320 EUR) for seating and 175 CHF (142 EUR) for standing....and I suspect Leonard would be in the same league..

Just a reminder of what was said. 6 months would now bring us into early October - ain't going to happen, is it? (the 6 months' notice, I mean.) Since AEG info. was so misleading how about getting an update from them now?
