Yes, February will be fab, and even the English can rattle their teabiscuits in excitement. Or so I gather from the Toutpartout Agency newsletter, which is always an excellent source for early info, since they are the hardworking people that put together these delightful European tours.

In fact, the newsletter says the following:

THE LONG WINTERS (USA)
(Munich)
More European dates t.b.c.
08/02/07 : Romein - Leeuwarden (NL)
09/02/07 : W2 - Den Bosch (NL)

11/02/07 : Botanique - Brussel (B)
13/02/07 : Bar Academy - Birmingham (UK)
15/02/07 : Monto Water Rats - London (UK)
17/02/07 : Cavern - Exeter (UK)

No Rekyavik show? :)

puschen.net is mumbling something about dates in GER/AUT in March, and I'd be grateful if they could announce them before I do/book something crazy.

Lies, are you going to 's Hertogenbosch/Zwolle? (just asking)

don't fret, all the previous mentions of European touring said February/March, so I'm guessing Reykjavik and the Färöer are scheduled a bit later on in the tour.

Den Bosch is looking good, Zwolle I'm not yet sure about. I wished I could take time off to go to Leeuwarden, it is easily one of my favourite Dutch cities. Make sure you have some time to walk around there, guys!

I second that...damn I just caught myself of thinking about the gig in Bilbao...just because it's my birthday and it would be a perfect present ;)

What I failed to mention before is that the newsletter itself also mentions Feb/March. Just thought I'd add that for the germanic contingent. I'm very intrigued by Düdingen, had never heard of the place, but it looks friendly enough. As the venue says on their website: die Wintersportorte träumen davon, wir haben sie gebucht (the ski resorts dream of it, but we booked them).

There are always some little corners in the world that are need to be discovered...so, according to Düdingen, there's a room for hope that one gig might take place around my area, right in the middle of Germany.

Well, technically they already announced a German show (i.e. Mallorca) even if that isn't really close to Erfurt. Düde.

anyone know what 'hello' is in Croatian?

by the way, Zwolle on the 10th is a support show for Dutch band A Balladeer, if I understand correctly. Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone was thinking of doing anything crazy...

Zdravo!

(I knew hanging around linguaphiles would come in handy)

No, but I do in Canadian. Which is where I hope they come on their way back.

sounds tempting, if I had a little more money I'd call for a crazy board gathering!

damnit, my program is taking us to Rome that weekend... looks like I'll have to hop up to the first Madrid show... band, if you're reading I'd like "Scent of Lime" but if not I'll just scream it anyway.
