    Just the first indications of this in the interview with Alison this morning. After the mini-tour this Spring, they will be playing "lots" of festivals over the summer, followed by a tour of "England and Europe" in the autumn.

    First festival appears to be the Bluedot Festival 7-9th July, Jodrell Bank, Cheshire, UK here

    Was this a radio interview?  No news of a N. American tour, I take it.

    Yes - the Lauren Laverne interview on 6 Music this morning. UK people can hear it on iplayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08f4jqd#play

    And no, no mention of further North American, South American, Australasian, Asian or African dates

    So New York and perhaps L.A.

    Canada misses out yet again. Yay.

    I know she wants to come here again, so hopefully they actually bring the tour over. They have seriously not been here since the Seventh Tree tour - almost an entire decade. It's utter hell.

    Yes! They have plenty of fans for at least one date. Come on guys, I know we're not that big, but we have     cities.

    As disappointing as it is to be an American fan these days, I have to say it's really surprising that they're, apparently, not booking gigs just a little further north in Wales and Ireland.  Do they play Scotland at least?

    ^ they're playing Glasgow 24 March 6 Music Festival.
    What if the Hokey Cokey is what it's all about?

    Scotland does seem to get a few dates in thankfully. Checking Setlist.fm, the last full concert they played in Ireland was back in November...     2010. The rest is all small festival slots.
    By the looks of things poor Wales doesn't get a look in at all.

    "I wanna see you jumping Scotland, pleaaaase!..."  B-)


    My other favourite artist is even worse for his dates compared to Alison & Will, who are actually very good in comparison, so to me this is luxury.  I must admit, they are cramming a fair few dates in all at once.  After Glasgow they must be going straight to New York?

    After Glasgy, the Roundhouse, then off to USA.
    The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ.
    Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit.
    Shall lure it back to cancal half a line,
    Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.
