Hi scocoh,
I'm glad that we have explained it .. 8) . I also like the daily complaints of some members of the Forum, which will place further in the Tour, where and when published. I managed to answer that others will be added.
I wish you good health, happiness and well-being and maybe sometimes we meet somewhere in Europe ;-)

With love

Yes that was put rather well ,scocoh.

Like scocoh I think in some way the word "fan" has quite a wide meaning. I believe it is all one can really call someone who is quite appreciative about the work of LC. I have had that term said to me a few times that I can recall when someone has brought up the subject of L.C, they will ask if you are a fan of his and invariably myself or Vicomtesse will say yes, without thinking about the term itself.

I don't want to be thought of as a teenybopper fan of LC's though, so is it alright if I think of myself as an an appreciative fan? ;-)

Well spotted byboyne. Perhaps signifying that the next phase of the tour - Old Ideas World Tour 2012 / North America - will be announced in the not too distant future?

Indeed, this is good news for many of us outside of Europe! North America is next, I hope...

How easy it is to start Chinese whispers :lol: ;-)

I don't think we have finished with Europe dates yet but one thing for sure, a World Tour means, a World tour, so surely it isn't too hard to take that fact in?

Whether the tour in Europe will carry on for now, or indeed later on and after the tour departs for elsewhere, will be offered to us all when and if.....

Patience I think jarkko would say :lol:

I secretly hope for an "Old Ideas World Tour/Japan" announcement...
Such a sweet dream.

Most of the gaps will not be filled but are going to be days off, used for travel and rest. There might still be something between the latest Dublin date and Verona.

I believe there has to be a gap of at least 3 days between concerts in different cities Harald as the band always travel the day before a concert so, for example, there would be no time to fit another city in between Ghent and Amsterdam. If you add to that the fact that extra "rest" days are built in to the schedule so Leonard can maintain the stamina he needs for his 3+ hour performances, I believe the only "gap" where we might hope to see new concerts announced is the one between Dublin 14 (or 15??) Sept and Verona 24 Sept. We know that the gap between Verona and Paris is accounted for by a religious holiday.

I wonder what has happened to the Istanbul date (announced in local press) and Bucharest?
