Nickel Creek are touring America with the lovely Fiona Apple, the "Farewell (for now) Tour"...Surely they'll venture further afield if they are saying goodbyes? I think itd be a popular ticket, i know i wasnt the only one disappointed without one on their last visit Failing that, i think id agree with Dusty on Chris Thile solo ...And also Chris Hillman. Hillmans last evening at the Lemon Tree was the best gig ive witnessed there, possibly the best in Aberdeen...Sam Bush would be another to provide a materclass of mandolin. Perhaps they could get together for a tour, you and i could support Mr Deviada, you have a mando right? Also Laura Viers, Ziggy Marley, Regina Spektor, Alexi Murdoch, Shooter Jennings, John Mayer and ill be more realistic and throw Ryan Adams and the White Stripes in there 8-)
