Stevie, it's not too late to just scrap the album, too, along with the US Tour, and just concentrate on being an opening act!

Haha my problem isn't that shes going to the UK. I think it'd be really smart for her and Dave to hit the UK first, that way the marketing and name can sell the album here in the US and then touring the US in Aug-Oct would provide another boost in sales. My problem is that she is going to the UK with Rod in late June. I find it hard to believe they wont be adding any other dates between late April until then. So my fear is they will add a few more over priced US shows and then an 15 or so dates of UK and elsewhere shows and then in Stevie's eyes that will be a proper tour. Stevie has "confirmed" many thing in her career that turned out to not be true and her last interview she stated that the Rod stint would be over before her album drops and shes sure they will then hit her with the schedule of her new tour. The only thing she confirmed is that she really has no clue what her management has planned and she is just going along for the ride.

Um...still don't care about her US tour...many times she has talked about a world tour. Even going as far as to saying she has to come. And then nothing. Maybe it's mean of me but I could care less if she cancelled a US tour so she could tour over here.

I say again... 22 years!!

Maybe she will do "Rooms On Fire" Her biggest U.K. solo hit.

Our withered English dreams have been answered! We deserve this.. GOD KNOWS we're owed at least one crummy performance. CAN'T WAIT!

[jellyman10]

OH MY GOD, I just had the most incredible thought..... What if she played Edinburgh Castle??? It would be perfect. Quite a few huge names have done so recently, cuz it's small but it's dead classy. In fact, Rod did that very gig about a year ago.

I would be so happy if that happened.

But, otherwise, I dunno about the Hyde Park thing. I'm going with the murmurs that there's going to be more UK gigs. Hope so!

I think it's fantastic Stevie if finally doing a UK gig! I think she should add a few more. Not only is it great advertising for In Your Dreams - I'm sure she will do some press while she's there to promote her new CD - plus it's great for Europe starved Stevie fans to finally see a solo tour after 22 years!

I'm wondering after April's Heart & Soul dates commence, That Stevie will be going deep into a US press & media tour all through May for IYD release. Makes sense to hit the UK in June, and give some room between the H & S spring dates and when she kicks off her official In Your Dreams US solo tour probably in mid -July through September-ish. Who the heck knows, she's probably wingin' it, and striking where the irons hot!

But what if she adds more UK dates and I can't afford them because I've paid a small country's national debt to go to London for the day?!

Good lord. I'm hyperventilationg slightly.

This is my issue too but can't be helped. I'm actually thinking of not going to this and just waiting until US dates are announced and taking a proper holiday and seeign her somewhere over there. I'll see though.

Al, don't let this oppurtunity slip through your fingers. With oil prices rising it would be much less expensive to see her in England than for you to fly all the way to the United States. Just my advice. Take it or leave it.

How much are the tickets? I might have to dip into my savings and go see this one

Cost wise I could manage but it's more of a logistical issue because of the date itsef. It's really annoying! I have my best friends wedding the day before *2 of them are getting married to each other! and I'm giving a reading. Then ther party. Then I'll have to get from the North of England to London on a Sunday which, as anyone in the UK will tell you, is not easy with our dumbass trains. They live in the middle of nohere as well so it would mean having to get from theirs to the station. I'll be planning it, am thinking of it all right now, but may just see her when I visit the US this year sometime - which I plan on doing. I've saved for a trip and would plan it around the gig. I'll keep you all posted though!

I'll bethere if at all possible and certainly at any other UK/European date! I'm escited! I WILL SEE HET THIS YEAR - NO MATTER WHERE! Hurrah!

[SorcererJP]

Well, a plane leaving for London is still a long way to go and too far from Home. But hey, she is playing Europe!

So to all the US-people: You had your share the last 22 years, now it's our turn.

Even if Stevie is not very known or popular overhere, it's great news. I'm in doubt en probably debt if I will go. It's very tempting, but then I think we have to wait a little longer...because you don't fly all the way to London with all of your gear, bandmembers and entourage to do just a couple of songs on a festival as a guest-act.

So there must be some extra performances in the pipeline. Anyone has a list of festivals on the mainland available?

I doubt that will happen. The sort of act that Stevie is usually appears on the Sunday at Glastonbury, because Hard Rock is the Sunday it's not likely to happen...but you never know for sure!

Very cool that she´s coming over there! you fans deserve it. And I hope she does play several say 15-20 shows in Europe. Like I said you fans deserve it!
