I have been meaning to bring this subject up for some time. I spotted this on a web-site recently. Paul Carrack in concert- Tuesday 15 May 'After a sell out night in October , Paul returns with his six piece band, standing first floor-#20, ground floor- #10.' He is appearing at 'The Jam House' in Birmingham-UK. Obviously, I know of his work for Roxy, but I had no clue of his career after this. It may not be the same bloke but I suspect it is. This list is so rich in knowledge of a myriad of musical perfomers, it never fails to amaze me! Keep at it David and everyone else! All the best, Pauline. ___________________________________________________________________________ The subliminable footer says: To unsub, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2001 13:33:17 +0100 From: Jocelyn Fiske Subject: [AVALON] TGPT Officially Roxy's drummer At last they've announced what we all hoped for.

This is going to be a great year! First we learn Paul that is going to be on the tour and now Chris Spedding is doing more session work with Bryan. That would be great if Chris played second fiddle to Phil on the tour.

The official sale date for the Chronicle Pavilion show is Sunday, April 22, but there is a KFOG presale event going on _now_ (since 10am this morning) and ending 9pm Saturday, April 21. I was checking the ticketmaster site for info on Sunday's sale a few minutes ago, and noticed that tickets were already listed as on sale! There doesn't appear to be any code required for participation in this KFOG presale event. I'm not sure whether this is a specific batch of tickets just for the presale, and so better tickets may be available on Sunday, or if this is your best chance for good seats.

And then, egged on by several Brits who are making the trek over to catch some east coast shows, I went for it and bought a ticket for Camden on July 26th: I'll be sitting in Section 104, Row C, Seat 17.
