Has anyone heard something about new dates? Any shows before the German or London Stones gigs? Thank you!

There are two shows in London -

20AUG - Vortex Jazz Club [www.vortexjazz.co.uk]
22AUG - The Borderline [www.meanfiddler.com]

sometimes I´m really not sure if we need this stuff....

oh yes, we do!
Tim's project is awesome!

The Borderline gig is in a great location, Soho, and is partly supporting a charity for homeless people (many thanks to Tim Ries to doing this). Only 250 people in an intimate venue.

Tickets are selling fast I hear, for what should prove to be a great gig between the first two O2 nights!

Saw Tim Ries in Sweden last week. Apart from Bernard and Michael Davis they had Darryl on stage that night. What a great concert that was. If you have the chance to see that show - go!

17th August at JJ's in Dublin

and go see Hogg (Jesse Wood's band) at The Eel Pie Club, on the wednesday.

to be fair dude, myself and Pauly have been spreading the word about
this Hogg gig, since it was scheduled, shortly after they're cracking set, at The Art Wood Tribute.

man - 20 pounds a ticket? that's $40 - i'm used to paying $15-20 to see them...

In Helsinki they gave away all the tickets free. The whole thing was advertised very sparingly.

Welcome to the UK, probably the most expensive country in Europe these days ... MUCH to the annoyance of those that live here, let me assure you. Hate to say it, but £20 for the Tim Ries project in London is about as cheap a night out as you're likely to find in town these days.

I could however also make the observation here that Stones tickets Stateside all too frequently have cost $450 (nearly $500 by the time you throw in the Ticketmaster fees etc), significantly more than the £150 ($300) that they cost in the UK - which were THE most expensive tickets in the whole of Europe. How come these Stateside prices then ??????????????????????

True ... but then HOGG ain't exactly the TR project, if you get my drift. The point I was trying to make is that £20 ain't a bad price for something of that standing in central London.

i payed € 20 last year in berlin.
was no problem t buy a ticket, one hour before they startet.

yes, but Tim has invited some very special guests! And Tim told me the other day that part of the proceeds will go to a children's charity.
Please read this:

"A proportion of the monies raised from tickets purchased will be donated to the project Byte Night a programme run by the NCH - the children’s charity who are raising money in support of young people coping with life after care or facing homelessness."

I would be interested in all 4 so how can we make arrangements? I am in New Yor and leaving for all 3 shows on MOn 21 AUG
