Tour Dates
« on: May 27, 2009, 03:15:53 PM »
According to MK News, the Get Lucky tour will begin in US at the end of April and end in Europe end of July, 2010 - that's one month less than KTGC.  I wonder which venues will be left out!   :-\

I had hoped to be at the opening concert again, but maybe the closing one will be fun this time!   ;)

A thought occurred - perhaps it's shorter because of the soundtrack he will be working on.

The STP tour also began in US.   I hope he does more or less the same dates for the UK. ie middle to end of May and beginning of June.  I have a feeling he will because it is half-term.

USA first? That's odd. Personally, I'm kind of disappointed as last year's KtGC tour proved that it's better to see MK and crew towards the end of the tour when they've gotten used to the set. The openers are nothing to write home about either, unless we rewind to 2005. Meh, it's such a long way off anyway...

The one positive for you is the set is more like to change and have different songs thrown in on the early dates.

Only devil baby in last tour... The complete setlist remained until the end of the tour. "Daddy's gone..." disappeared after a while.

Not true, we also had Secondary Waltz at three UK shows, including the two I attended.  ;)

BUT....

Guy Fletcher said they will play the royall albert hall in May 2010...
And germany in Summer.
As the tour start end april in USA...They'll play USA for 3-4 weeks.

Maybe it's like 2001. End april USA. Europe start 3 june Royall albert hall.
It might be a bit the same tourlist.
