Touring, touring touring...

Just a last reminder to you all about the touring plans for the summer. We're almost ready to fly over the pond for our Los Trios Marillos acoustic shows - which are all selling very well! - so grab your tickets while you can. While we are there we have lined up some great promotion for the Marbles on the Road DVD (which has just been released to retail in North America): we will be playing short acoustic sets followed by signing sessions in most of the cities we're visiting. Full ticket ordering information plus the list of all dates and in-store sessions are available from www.marillion.com/tour - we hope to see as many of you there as we can possibly fit in the door!

Of course, before we go we need to warm up. The Banbury gig for Web UK members on June 7th sold out in record time. Our additional gig at St George's Hall in Bristol has only a handful of tickets left - so, again, grab them while you can for your last chance to see Los Trios Marillos! We also have less than 100 tickets left for the Aylesbury full-band warm-up show on June 30th prior to our festival appearances at Bospop and Guilfest.

When we get back from all of this running about, we're going to have a short break to recover and then go back in the studio to finish working on the new music we've been creating - it's been going great, and already have 4 new songs firmly taking shape!
