Archie Fisher with Garnet Rogers 2014 North American Tour

A friend (Bat Goddess) mentioned an upcoming concert in New Hampshire, which reminded me it's time to post the schedule
for the log-awaited Archie Fisher & Garnet Rogers Tour. Please note there is one Canadian appearance in Ontario. Archie usually
spends time in Canada in the autumn, so there may be additional opportunities to hear him and likely Garnet as well- individually or together.

I hope some 'Catters will manage to enjoy these two deeply gifted and entertaining musicians. This schedule is from http://woodenshipproductions.com/?page_id=29
You'll need to contact the venues directly for exact information. I haven't yet found a list of links, but if I do I'll add it to this thread.

If anyone here manages to go toany of these rare appearances, I'd be interested in the set lists.

I'm so glad to hear that Dana Westover and Frankie Lieberman are continuing the late Billie Hockett's work of producing memorable concerts by artists from the British Isles and Ireland to remind us of the great job that Billie did in the Cambridge area. That's what Billie accomplished to perfection in the name of her daughter, the late Robin Blecher.

Phooey- The April 10 concert should be listed as being in Ann Arbour, MI. Must have been a typo at the link posted in the first post. Sorry I missed the mistake.
Changed "MA" to "MI" in the first post. --Mod

I, too, wish I could get to one of these. I saw them together a few years ago and enjoyed the music and laughed a lot.

The concert at Circle of Friends would be my best shot, but that's the same day I plan to go to the Bob Webb memorial at Mystic Seaport. That's in the morning, but I'll probably be too tired to go out that night. Also I'm sure this will sell out, and the only way to get tickets is by paying for them online, which I don't do. I am glad that I have seen them together once and also glad that this performance will certainly sell out without me.

Wouldn't it be great if they would tour together UK side of the pond? Seen Archie many times, and got several tapes of Garnet but never seen him live.

I'm still thinking about the show, which was one of the most memorable ever. If you are wondering if you should go to one of the remaining concerts, DO IT!

I am a big fan of Garnet Rogers but noticed he never has any gigs booked on the west coast. I have read that Garnet avoids flying anymore for concerts but was wondering if he mainly drives/or driven to areas of USA that are not too far from his home in Canada? I noticed the concerts in USA are mostly east coast, some mid-west states. Would love to see him if he ever toured in California.
I imagine though that that would really be just too far to drive (to California) - 3,000 miles approximately from where he lives.
I'm hoping one day though that he will make it out to the west coast.

That's ok, Guest Lin. I'm sure the moderators will catch the extra post.

Last I knew Garnet and Archie drive when on tour together. I hope you get your wish. You can keep track of Garnet's performances here:
