Well, the Black Swan Folk Club in York decided today NOT to hire me for a gig on August 25th. They listened to my CD and didn't think I would fit their venue. So maybe we will spend some time down in Devon instead of zooming back up to the northeast. I will try and find another time to get up to that area. It seems there are quite a few clubs that aren't interested in us singer/songwriter types. Still a few clubs considering .

We plan to have a great time even if I don't find any folk club gigs. Having the chance to meet UK catters and seeing the beautiful sights will make our vacation fabulous. We will keep you all posted as our schedule firms up. thanks so much to all of you who have offered lodging and assistance. This trip would not be near as much fun without your help.

See you in less than 8 months.

Mike
