Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: ChanteyLass Date: 01 Sep 10 - 08:26 PM Thanks, Maeve. I hope to see Archie at the Blackstone River Theatre on April10. He is appearing with Garnet Rogers from Canada, also a wonderful performer. |

Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 13 Feb 10 - 09:13 AM Thank you, Dan. I no longer have a camera, so appreciate your photos. As for a return tour, encourage local venues to book now. Archie does intend to return within a year or so. maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: DanTappan Date: 13 Feb 10 - 09:07 AM We saw Archie in Watertown MA (Music For Robin Concerts) last night. He put on a fine show. I hope he comes back through sooner next time, his previous show in the area was about 12 years ago. I put some photos in http://www.flickr.com/photos/dan_tappan/sets/72157623426012440/ I apologize for the poor quality, we were pretty far back and the lighting was almost non-existent. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: GUEST,Kevin Date: 12 Feb 10 - 09:26 AM |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 11 Feb 10 - 08:16 AM Thank you so very much, Jacqui and Kendall. I needed to see Archie, and had a lovely evening. You are generous friends. maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: jacqui.c Date: 11 Feb 10 - 08:09 AM Maeve and I went to see Archie in concert last night. Kendall had a recurrence of a back problem and so was unable to join us, so I was doubly glad of Maeve's company. It was definitely worth the hour's drive to be there - we had a great evening and I loved his songs. Next time he's in the USA we're going to try to get him to come to South Portland to do a house concert. Despite the weather warnings we didn't see one flake of snow, which meant dry roads and easy travelling. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 09 Feb 10 - 02:59 PM It seems our friends in Newfoundland will be seeing Archie in August of 2010. http://www.nlfolk.com/fest2010/performers/fisher.html maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 09 Feb 10 - 02:54 PM No blizzards permitted, Jacqui! Here's a link to a short piece in Dirty Linen. maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 10 - 10:35 AM Barring a blizzard tomorrow we're going to Rollinsford to see Archie in concert. I am really looking forward to that! |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: GUEST,Annie Date: 09 Feb 10 - 06:25 AM Thanks for the contact info. I'll give them a call. It never hurts to ask. Sorry I didn't ID myself in the previous post. I'm not as active in this as I use to be, but I still do a few shows a year, under the guise of Thirsty Ear Concerts. At this point I usually only do house concerts, but for someone like Archie Fisher, I'd definitely come out of retirement to put together something more substantial. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 08 Feb 10 - 01:23 PM Refresh Rollingsford, New Hampshire Wednesday night! The Elysium Folk Club looks like a very nice venue: http://www.elysiumarts.com/folkclub/index.cfm?fuseaction=app.events |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 07 Feb 10 - 06:46 PM It seems that Archie is already pretty busy for this tour, Guest. Contact Wooden Ship Productions to discuss possibilities for the next tour. Good luck! |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: GUEST,If he's coming down to FL Date: 05 Feb 10 - 02:32 PM to go on this cruise, would he be interested in playing a few venues down here, before or after? I could help facilitate if he's interested. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 04 Feb 10 - 06:34 PM I suspect Archie will need some time at home in March. I sure would. Looks like friends will help me get to a concert or two. In the meantime I'm working on possible venues for the next tour. LOL maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Susan A-R Date: 03 Feb 10 - 09:54 PM Hmmmm, What the heck is he doing in March?? |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 03 Feb 10 - 02:27 PM Mary Katherine, yes; that's why I haven't listed those dates. It seemed more useful to simply include the link to that information. I'm glad you and perhaps other Mudcatters will be able to see him there. maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Mary Katherine Date: 03 Feb 10 - 02:11 PM Archie is also listed as attending and performing at the Folk Alliance conference in Memphis, TN February 17-21. It's not listed on the itinerary posted above - maybe because only those folks registered for the FA conference can attend his showcases, performances and workshops? Anyhow, since he's not coming to the West Coast this trip I'm very glad I'll be seeing him at Folk Alliance, and heads up to any other Mudcatters who'll be there. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 03 Feb 10 - 01:42 PM Thanks, Chance and Seamus. I haven't seen Archie since Truelove and I stopped by his place for a mug of tea during our honeymoon trip. maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Seamus Kennedy Date: 03 Feb 10 - 01:17 PM Archie was on the Irish Music Cruise along with the Makem and Spain Brothers, Evans & Doherty, Matt & Shannon Heaton, Hanneke Cassel, Gabriel O'Donoghue and many others. I was on another Irish music cruise leaving from the same port, Ft. Lauderdale, and we got to meet up, have a jar and shoot the breeze for a while. Archie is another (cliché but true)living legend. Treasure him while we've got him. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Fortunato Date: 03 Feb 10 - 01:05 PM Kendall, come down for April 9th, stay with us and we'll go to the Baltimore show. Chance |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 03 Feb 10 - 09:39 AM Think about it, Effsee...the years spent working with Makem & Clancy. It makes sense to me, anyway. :) m |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Effsee Date: 02 Feb 10 - 11:40 PM Irish Music Cruise in Southern Caribbean...??? 24th Jan - 3 Feb. Irish? Nice work if you can get it I suppose! :-) |

Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Amergin Date: 19 Dec 09 - 05:39 PM Those dates are all a bit too far for me to drive.... |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Gorgeous Gary Date: 19 Dec 09 - 05:29 PM The weekend of that Toronto date is the weekend of the filk convention in Mississauga Sheryl and I always attend. This could get **very** interesting... -- Gary |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 19 Dec 09 - 01:48 PM That may be the closest for us too. Something to look forward to mid the cold December winds. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: DanTappan Date: 19 Dec 09 - 01:43 PM "What's the nearest to Boston and I will tell my daughter to go" Feb 12: Watertown MA. Watertown is right next to Cambridge. Across the Charles River from "Boston proper" but all part same urban area. |

Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: michaelr Date: 18 Dec 09 - 11:07 PM Crap. No West Coast dates again. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Effsee Date: 18 Dec 09 - 10:22 PM There's a lot of gaps in that schedule folks...start filling them in if you want him nearby! You know it makes sense! |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: Charmion Date: 18 Dec 09 - 05:31 PM I loathe Toronto, but an April visit is obviously in our future. |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 18 Dec 09 - 12:55 PM I know, Kendall; I was hoping this leg of the tour would come in better weather, but it is as it is. I'm still hoping there can be several more bookings in Maine/New Hampshire. maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 18 Dec 09 - 12:55 PM Geez Kendall, it's only a few miles west of Bean's Corner. I'm on my way down to the cellar... |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: kendall Date: 18 Dec 09 - 12:50 PM I would also drive a long way to hear this master, but Carthage Maine? in February? Tell me this is a joke! |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: autoharper Date: 18 Dec 09 - 12:45 PM One of my favorite quotes is from Archie - - and it's certainly true: "You can perform anywhere as long as you stay away long enough." -Adam Miller |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: maeve Date: 18 Dec 09 - 12:39 PM Adam and Tim- Me too. In fact I have driven that far. Do please spread the word. The only way we have a chance of a repeat tour is to make it clear how we treasure Archie and his music. maeve |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: RTim Date: 18 Dec 09 - 12:09 PM I am so looking forward to see Archie in Woods Hole! Tim Radford |
Subject: RE: Archie Fisher North American Tour 2010 From: autoharper Date: 18 Dec 09 - 11:59 AM This is pretty exciting. Thanks for posting it to the list. Archie is one of the few performers I would literally drive 500 miles to see. For those of you who haven't had the pleasure, make reservations now. It's been years since Archie has performed on our shores. -Adam Miller |
