I haven't been reading all the threads on tom Paxton but I thought he had announced his retirement a few years back? Great to hear it was just a rumor.

He had done Farewell tour no 1 then Farewell tour no 2, but then said on his website words to the effect of "Forget retirement, I'm having a ball". I'll be getting my ticket for Glasgow, which will be during the Celtic Connections Festival.

Dang it, Kendall! Why you gettin' my hopes up like that? That's no where near where I'll be in January.

Tom is obviously back playing the big venues. There was a spell in the eighties that he was playing smaller venues in outer London. Aka. Wimbledon, Croydon, and Greenwich. Wish he'd do that again!

If you get to talk to him, tell him I sent you. By the way, he loves Lobsters! :-)

Tom has always been happy to talk. One of the nicest pros on the circuit.
