Mike McGoldrick interview

[tunnel85]

There are also rumours about Dylan touring the US with MK too, I know I

[jbaent]

There are many clues that show something big is cooking : they came back to British Grove very quickly after the tour and again very early after Christmas ...   

I thought that was simply because the touring with Dylan took some time from MK

[superval99]

I, too, have a strong feeling that MK will join Dylan on his tour in 2012, maybe in US.   2012 is a very bad year to be in London for anything that is not connected with the Queen's Jubilee or the Olympics.  

I was listening to someone on the radio saying that London is fully booked and that prices for hotels are sky-high and are deterring ordinary tourists and concert goers away.  Apparently Andrew Lloyd Webber is closing three of his shows for that very reason.    I think MK would not want to be there this year.   I'm betting on the US with Dylan!  

[jbaent]

Wow, I didnt think that an Olympic Games could have a so bad effect on a city, looks like its exactly the contrary to what its suppose to happen.

But I guess that would be just during the Queen Jubilee and the Games, how many months could affect to London between both acts?

[Dutchessy]

I think they mean the world tour next year.

Guy said a while ago on his forum that he album will be released BEFORE christmas 2012.

I think album 2012 and tour 2013. The regular Mark schedule.

[jbaent]

Today is already before christmass 2012.

Why don't they schedule the Olympics and Queen's jubilee around MK's tour?

To be serious, we waited four years for STP and were rewarded with one of his best albums so let's hope for something on similar lines this time around.

[superval99]

not really much info is there?

[Dutchessy]

not really much info is there?

There is:

This tour has been quietly knocking audiences dead over in Europe while getting scant U.S. attention. Knopfler opens for Dylan, then collaborates on a few songs during Dylan's headlining set, giving both artists a kick. The success over there will bring the whole thing to these shores for the summer.


So an USA tour for MK & BD?

[superval99]

It wouldn't surprise me at all!   I remember someone asking Guy if Mark would be joining Bob in the US this summer and he refused to comment.  Usually he says it's a whole lot of rubbish!

no there is not, this "news" has been going since early in the EU tour.

[Dutchessy]

Yes, and it keeps going from different sources. So a big chance it's true, don't you think?

[jbaent]

I dont care very much unless it includes some european dates for all the countries ignored last tour (Spain, Portugal etc etc)

Just asked Guy in his forum, lets wait his answer.
