I'm leaving for a while

Ricky Davis · Post by **Ricky Davis** » 20 Sep 2001 11:23 am

I'm leaving on a European Tour with Dale Watson, on the 25th of Sep.(this Tues.)and we'll be gone till the 30th of Oct. I won't be taking my Laptop computer with me, so I will be somewhat out of touch for that amount of time(except for a internet cafe here and there). I'm a bit nervous traveling internationally at this time; but we must do and continue with what we do; so wish us luck and a prayer; and here is the tour schedule for those interested.

See ya.

Ricky from the looks of that schedule, you're going to be moving around too fast for anyone to catch you. Good luck buddy, you'll be fine.

Ricky, be careful with all the crap that's happening lately.

If y'all happen to be near Munich, I think the October fest will be going on.

All the best to you and the boys for a safe trip.

Ricky and Dale: Very, very welcome to Sweden!

I´ll getcha you in Mora – don´t worry!
Mora is in nothern Dalarna (The Valleys (or Dalecarlia, to speak latin)), and Dale has been here at least a couple of times before. I aired a translated presentation with mixed in songs of and with him for our listeners last time, and I intend to do the very same thing this time too, on beforehand. Sveriges Radio Dalarna is by far the leading local radio station here in Dalarna, and I know that Hotel Siljan was packed close to blasting apart last time, and I hope it´ll be this time too. I really want people here to discover good country music, you see.
Americans are spoiled with country music everwhere at all times at home, but here in the northwestern corner of Europe we have some 2 or 43acts per year (!) whithin reasonable distances. (Gas is $5 per gallon here!)
I notice that you seem to have a few days off between Mora and Stockholm, and maybe we can get some time to meet then? Both Mora and Stockholm are some 3 hours by car from Falun, where I live and work at Sveriges Radio Dalarna (link below).
I listen to Bobbe Seymore´s ”Steel Guitar Favourites” right now, and if you´re half as good as him, you´re at least 25 times better than me, so don´t get nervous! I look forward to listen and learn!
Sveriges Radio Dalarna´s home site is at http://www.sr.se/dalarna/ My e-mail address to the radio station is anders.brundell@dala.sr.se (My copedent is at http://communities.msn.se/countryfolketiDalarna/dcmcsfotoalbum.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=91 Gimme just 15 more lifetimes and I´ll be able to handle it reasonably well. DCMC´s (Dalarna´s Country Music Club´s) home siteis at http://communities.msn.se/countryfolketiDalarna )
C U in Dalarna!
Regards!

Ooops!
I slipped on a key in the above mail. We have some 2 - 3 (not 43!) acts per year.
Sorry!

As always, it'll be great having the band playing Scotland again. Hey, Country music came from Scotland (and Ireland) ... well, sort of.
