Hello!
There is a fair to middling chance that we might wheel the old gal around some venues next year once the album's out. If we were to pick, say 5 UK, 5 EU and 5 world destinations, where would you suggest?
I'm not saying we would actually arrive at all these places, but it'd be nice to get an idea of the scope of what's out there and who might rock up.
Ta innit.
Jem x
I'd travel to East Sussex - Trading Boundaries?
Otherwise London is just fine
Somewhere in the Midlands would be handy for me (although my GF and I have actually talked about going to as many gigs we can get to as possible should the big F tour again). I guess the Tower of Song is probably a bit small, but I thought that was a great venue. The Robin seems to be a pretty popular place for Proggy and Rocky bands alike.
Manchester/Liverpool (anywhere in the north west)
Ps hello!
Picturedrome, Holmfirth or a CRS gig, but willing to travel as far as, well......Depends on timing
What time of year are you thinking? There are some great festivals (as you know!) in the New England, USA area in the summer.
The Robin, CRS Awards Night (too soon?), Summer's End....
Well, I'm obviously going to vote for the 2nd ever Scottish gig, preferably Glasgow. Sadly the venue where you played with Spock's Beard (the Arches) is no more but there are plenty good venues. King Tut's would be a great choice.
Failing that, somewhere else in 'the north' would be fine, like Newcastle or even Carlisle (best gig I ever saw It Bites play was there). 8)
Here are a few of my favourites...
UK:
The Robin - Bilston
Under The Bridge - London
The Brook (given that Talking Heads is probably too small) - Southampton
Leamington Assembly
EU:
De Boerderij - Zoetermeer, cos it's easy to get to from the UK, and Arie is a star
...but you'll be seeing me wherever you go, cos I'm like that 8)
Somewhere in the US where AJ can get to see you - he's kept the Frost* flag fluttering for a few years now

hear hear!
This is all brilliant. Keep it coming. :) x
Had a bit more of a think about the Midlands, we're wondering if somewhere like The Slade Rooms in Wolverhampton (although we've not been there personally) or The Institute in Birmingham. The Institute would suit me down to the ground as it's down the road from where I work, although I expect you're hoping for some other people to turn up as well ;)
Cambridge Rock Festival...
How about....Twats, It Bites, Lonely Robot, Frost* what a line up!
Just up the road from CB...
Can have a word with the CRF boss...
NB. JM, I listened to your last set there with my fingers in my ears, I had a perforated eardrum, sorry!

;D Cheers, L33VEY! As doing so would be one (many) too many BLUNDERS, I CONNAUGHT be taKING credit, for Here_Be_Frost*'s work, not mine. I do appreciate the compliment, though, and shall send the Google Earth coordinates of my back yard along.
No, actually, Tampa is not a hotbed of prog. We get the occasional DT gig. Mr. Wilson popped by on the GFD tour, but that may have been because John Wesley is my neighbor and Shteve needed a guitarist. Rush was just here. But, I fear there wouldn't be enough of a draw to justify the stop. Orlando, on the other hand, is worth the stop whether you're playing a gig there or not. House of Blues in Orlando is one of my favorite venues and they do get their share of progressive acts. I've seen DT, The Dixie Dregs, King's X... Even saw Fates Warning there once (with NDV of all people on drums, the tart). Plus, there's the wallet-sucking Disney empire and Universal Studios, now with Diagon Alley, Hogsmeade and Hogwarts Express. It would be wonderful to see Frost* in Florida, but I have to be realistic. On the other, other hand, there's a town in the next county called Frostproof and we may never know what that really means unless they pay a visit and test it.
On the more realistic side, the other, other, other hand, if you will, the most obvious places to play in the U.S. are Philadelphia (or not too much further Gettysburg *cough*rosfest*cough*), New York and Los Angeles. I'm sure Canada would welcome you, and Blunders wants to go back to Vancouver, so there's that. An even better destination might be for Frost* to join next year's Cruise To The Edge. Then I'd have to go.
Back in 2009, I flew to Philadelphia solely to see Frost* and it was as spectacular as I could have hoped for. Because my children were home with their grandmother, we had to leave early Sunday morning, so missed seeing Touchstone, though I did get to meet Rob and Moo, as well as a number of wondreful Frosties, including Roger and Cairn. Bank balance permitting, I'd travel again to see my favorite band.
Oh, I forgot Chicago...
So, in summary:
Places you should definitely play:
Philadelphia (or Gettysburg)
New York City
Chicago
Los Angeles
Places Craig wants to go back to:
Vancouver, BC
Wish list:
Orlando

I second this motion ;D It's a shame about The Arches though.
That being said, I would understand if the logistics of making a gig happen in Scotland are too difficult to pull off.
I'd say Norwich, trouble is don't think many others would :(
Since we will all aspire to be at all the gigs just book all the nights in the same place and sort out a season ticket.. no gear shifting. No ticketing drama, lots of Frostie fun, easy life for Nellie. Sorted.
Might even sort the curry out by day three.

Can supply 3 Frosties into Norwich,, 4 if you count 12 year olds...

The new venue for Fibbers in York is a great venue. Don't compare it to the old dark low roofed hole the old one was. Saw Lifesigns at the new place. Lovely venue. High roof and we'll set out. Loads of stage left and right stowage area too.
Village Underground...

Edinburgh Playhouse...

A tad ambitious perhaps but hey, nothing wrong with that! ;)
Another vote for the Robin 2, and the Brook in So'ton - have played 'em both and they're nice gigs.
I guess there's also the Slade Rooms in Wolverhampton (affiliated with the Civic/Wulfrun halls), and the o2 Academy 2 or the hmv Institute in Brum (much as I would love to Frost* in the big room at the Academy it's probably not a financially viable choice). The Institute has several rooms of varying capacities and the big room is quite ornate.
Of course that leads neatly on to the Assembly Rooms in Leamington which is a cracking venue and full of character - I recall JM being quite taken with it when IB played there a few years ago.
Another vote for The Brook (Southampton) here too!
They've just had a new floor put in too, although I don't know if that's a vote clincher!
Germany: Das Rind in Rüsselsheim (http://dasrind.de/) It's in the middle of Germany, right outside Frankfurt.
Lots of prog bands have played there.
I'm not sure if it's been mentioned already, but I'd love to see Frost* somewhere in Spain (or Portugal. Portugal's close enough too).
Shame The Point in Cardiff no longer exists :( twas a great venue.
Cardiff or Bristol would be nice but I I'd venture to London if you don't fancy coming west
Cardiff is a good shout actually as I have family there so that would make the "follow Frost* around on tour" plans easier ;)
I also have family in Bournemouth and it's lovely there in the summer ;)
My back garden? Or the Rescue Rooms, or the Bodega in Nottingham?
De Boerderij in Zoetermeer, of course ;)
And you know what the band get as an added extra VIP tour nearby 8)

Cambridge Junction!
Or as Lyn said, the Cambridge Rock Festival. Saw It Bites there a few years back. Twas good :-)
For Canada (or at least Montreal and Quebec) I would suggest getting in touch with the folks who run this facebook page https://www.facebook.com/LaCapitaleDuProg?fref=ts They've been the promoters for many prog gigs in the last few years and haven't gone under yet so they must be doing something right.

I'm with DS on this :D
Decent Scottish venues depending on expected crowds, would be King Tuts, ABC2, Classic Grand (all Glasgow), Voodoo Rooms and Liquid Rooms (both Edinburgh).
Anywhere in Florida... Its nice here Jan-March.. ;D
House of Blues near Boston, Massachusetts. Or anywhere in that general vicinity!
God, I want to play at ALL these places! :-*

Somewhat belatedly, but I'd have to second the proposal for Tigermoth to get the support slot for any planned gigs.
Having seen him perform the material live it's a really good way to warm up the crowd as the reaction seemed to be unanimously good

May I sixththsth that suggestion. With his combination of talent and wit, he would seem an obvious choice.

Would love to see this happen, especially after the wonderful performance young Mothie delivered at the Robin 2
Nah, I think Jem is beyond nag power - but presuming he's heard the albums, and our favourable reviews and no doubt 'inside' info from Rob Reed it seems like an excellent match up, both musically and humour-wise too!!!!
Does this mean we get 10%? :P

& from the map it looks like it's very close to the York Brewery
Why not just do it AT the brewery?
I'm VERY late to the party, but I'd love to see a North West show i.e. Manchester/Liverpool/Holmfirth ;D
Er ........ Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!! I don't know how I've missed this, as I've been on here every other day. Apart from I guess I didn't look at this particular thread as I just assumed that it would be folks stil suggesting areas or venues. Excuse me I must shout woo hoo out of the window at an annoyingly loud volume. ......... Right, did that. Well needless to say that if my services are required I'd be only too pleased to oblige. Thanks a lot Frost*ies for the recommendations and Mr G if you are serious then I shal be at your service. But I sense there is a gun in front of me over which I should not jump. :)

Well, if some kind Frost*ie can give Jem a lift to Comet 67P/C-G (it's somewhere north of Aberdeen, I think), we'd be more than happy to have Frost* as the house band for the final end of mission, when we drop Rosetta onto the surface in September 2016 8)

No need to shout! We know! (At least, I do 8))
Three gigs in June:
17 June: Edinburgh
18 June: Wath
19 June: Bilston
It'll be Edinburgh for me (at least): any excuse to spend time back in Auld Reekie, where I was ensconced from the end of 1979 to the beginning of 1988 as an undergraduate and postgraduate.
At this point, I'm trying to persuade my daughter that she needs to do a degree there starting autumn 2017, so I have even more excuses to visit regularly.

I suppose the thing to do there is set up some kind of pledge, like with https://www.gigpledge.com/ (https://www.gigpledge.com/) so it could go ahead.

Sorry guys, the true MT doesn't have time for proper stuff like that anymore. I'd email that other one, you know Brian something. He's supposed to be REALLY good.
Sir, we, uh-- we have got a 'Brian', sir.

We've been trying very hard to be part of the Boaty McBoatface thing, but... I don't think we're contenders this time out. :(

But! I could totally see you and Lord Connaught going hell-bent-for-topiary in the bespoke Frost* event called, erm, Prune To The Hedge.
Okay, I'll get me coat...

I'm completely confused; get some science bods on what? Rog's teleportation or on the Cruise to the Edge boat?
But don't worry, Frost*ingtons, your friendly neighbourhood TA/MT is definitely meddling in things musical still: some big surprises coming later this year, I hope :-*

Ah, I forgot about the age minimum of 46 to participate. :P And you've already got the yachty hats and pipes and whatnot. Shame. And the boaty thing gets around the U.S. "you're welcome to play in our country at a significant loss" laws.
When I win the Powerball, I'm making my own boaty thing.
Here are some of the non-existent, non-announcements so far not participating:
Frost*
Peter Gabriel
Steven Wilson
Jeff Lynne
Spock's Beard
Marillion
Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
Steve Hackett
IQ
Big Big Train
Lazuli
The Fringe
Tom Brislin
Tiny Giant
Losers
The Pineapple Thief
King's X
Flying Colors
Tiger Moth Tales
The Fierce & The Dead
Newton Faulkner
The Dear Hunter
But enough about night one.
I'd go on that one - and I hate the idea of cruises! 8)
Could you put them on night 2 please? I may have got over my sea sickness by then :-\
