Clare Burson (www.myspace.com/clareburson) will open the shows at Glenside and New York. Great Aunt Ida (www.myspace.com/greatauntida), the Vancouver band who played on the song Sustain on Book Of Lightning, will open at Toronto, Seattle, Vancouver, Portland and San Francisco. Both acts are playing at the personal invitation of Mike Scott. There will be no support act in Boston or Chicago.

I'll be at the NYC show! I saw them at Irving Plaza about five years ago. Even though the line-up is ever changing except for Mike Scott, it was still a great show. Fisherman's Blues is one of my favorite albums.

I wish I could go to the NYC show but I am leaving for vacation on November 2nd. Have a great time Circemuse!
