I am in the UK- Oxford to be exact- and the Lord Adams is playing in my hometown in a tiny 1000 person venue on the same night as the final night of the Glastonbury Festival. Bummer.. anyone have any hints if he is planning to play Glasto? Ryan, do tell us…

mark h May 18, 2011, 17:10:54

YO, Ryan, Leave the Cardinals in the UK when you come back home. You are so much better solo, brother!

Meghan May 21, 2011, 18:08:46

How about Kooka Boothe in Cary NC; The National in Richmond,VA; World Cafe in Philadelphia, PA please…?

Satie May 21, 2011, 19:32:53

Been dying for you to return to NC! We miss you! I would kill for a show in Raleigh.

Jessica May 24, 2011, 00:26:51

I agree, please do some shows in the U.S. My boyfriend and I are big fans and would love to see a live show!

mike May 30, 2011, 16:48:50

Its a bummer that you don’t pay more attention to the people who truly love your music. Where it started. Im in nort carolina and have been waiting even for a tour anywhere for the past four years. Then I see solo tour announced and the door slammed again. ...well hope your record sales increase across the pond. Guess I will settle for David Gray as im sure someone is posting this same issue on his page. Not a bad trade off.

Skylar May 31, 2011, 08:30:11

Ryan Adams > David Gray….just sayin.

jgandy May 31, 2011, 19:44:59

Please come to Louisville! It is such a great, eclectic town, with great venues. It’s the “New Orleans of the northern South!” Perfect for Ryan Adams music of all stripes!
