I believe the last time that MK did a Europe only tour was for Golden Heart.  It began in Galway, Ireland on 24th April and ended in Antibes on 4th August, playing at small, medium and large venues across Europe, for up to three nights at some venues.  I wonder if he will do something similar in 2013.

Aah, yes, the Amsterdam kick off, so much more exciting then the Brussels kick off in 2006...
Standing at the stage door with all the usual people, listening to that world championship football game (was it holland?) on the radio and hearing the goals seconds before the people sitting in the pubs all around us saw it on their digital tv's. And then marks' arrival, the signing, I gave my passport but he was "scared" to sign it.... :'(
I last shook his hand half a century ago,... Ronnie Scott's 1999... ;(

Hm... The Amsterdam kick-off was 29 march 2008, so there wasn't any world championship football game  ;)

That was Amsterdam 28 june 2010 when Netherlands played against Slovakia. The 2010 kickoff was in the USA.

Yeahhhh a kick off in Amsterdam would be great, BUT I think it might be in another country, because we had it already in 2008!  ::)

I am getting very excited now, knowing we don't have to wait so long before we can order tickets and meet some of the fans who became friends! Only fear I have (as always) is that something might go wrong and while ordening I push the wrong buttons at my keyboard! Lucky Ingridswing is always willing to help me when I get in panic!  LOL

Yeahhh I know I am a crazy girl.........oohhhh no, at the age of 50+ I should say "I am a crazy woman!"

It may happen again because MK is so conservative.  ;)
It's gonna be between you and Dublin  ;D ;D ;D
I'd bet on Amsterdam.  8)
Because of the Berlin show, a kick off in Dublin would have to happen early April.   ::) ???
I don't think they're gonna tour during four months.

Get ready ! ::)

2008 there is, or am I really wrong. 2010 was US, not recording and 2011 with BD was Dublin and I didn't check if there was a recording made

I've heard first show 2008 pretty sure about that. Don't know if i still have it. Quality wasn't very good.
It must be?? That was the show with the tripods... Everybody was filming that show!!

I think i had the audio from Waldo.

Exactly Dutchessy, that was where some fans ruined it for us all with the tripods  :'(
I hope I will remember to check if I have a recording tomorrow, my extra harddisk is at the office at the moment
