After our first gig, at Hot Club de Gand, in Ghent.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The tour went quite well, by the way\u2014 the shows were all well attended, audiences were very appreciative, purchased a lot of CDs, we got some good press, and we are well situated to expand our reach next year. This was my fourth tour of Europe leading my own group, and the most successful one yet both artistically and financially.<\/p>\n

There’s a gallery of photos<\/a> from the tour here, and our updates from the road<\/a> are here.<\/p>\n
