Thanks for asking, Barbara - I think the simple answer is "when we can make it financially viable"!
At the moment we're saying that if this all goes as well as we think it will we'll make future plans accordingly. I'd love to come back to the US (either solo or with Mary) but these days I have to be more careful with money (husband and cat to keep fed and comfy, mortgage and bills to pay) so any tour would have to pay its way. But nothing is impossible, I know, so here's hoping ...

So when are you coming back across the pond again?
Blessings,

Ah yes - on August 29th, thank you for reminding me, I'm at Faldingworth live - solo!
I was going to create a separate thread for that, though ...

Mary McLaughlin and I sang together in the 1980s as the duo Anonyma. We're just about to tour again in Wales and England during August and hope to see some of you at some of our gigs. Here are the dates:
August 7th at 6.15 pm - foyer performance on the Glanfa stage at the Millennium Centre in Cardiff. Opposite Torchwood!
August 12 - 15th - watch out for our separate and joint appearances at the Broadstairs folk festival. This is special as it was exactly 25 years ago that we met at Broadstairs festival. Of course we were very, very young then ....
August 15th - Walthamstow Folk Summer Special at the Plough, Hoe Street, Walthamstow. Yes, it's a Saturday night.
August 19th - Llantrisant folk club at the Windsor Hotel, Pontyclun.
August 21st - special concert at St Thomas's Church Hall, St Dogmael's, near Cardigan.
August 22nd - Mary is running a voice workshop in the morning and a workshop in singing in Irish in the afternoon. Pm me for more details.
August 23rd - Bude folk club at the Falcon Hotel, Bude, Cornwall.

Let me know if you'd like more details of any of these performances. Most are at 8.15 pm (or the club starts then, at least).

Mary flies into Cardiff airport tomorrow night .... I'm getting excited!
