I believe the full acoustic tour dates for 2009 are in the winter tour program - anyone got time to jot them down for us?

Blimey, I hope they get a decent crowd at the Theatre Royal, Portsmouth. From the outside you could be forgiven for thinking the place had closed down, even when it's open.

It was full to bursting for Maddy Prior last year. The restoration work inside is amazing. I went inside when it was derelict, and it looks wonderful now, with all the Edwardian ceiling decorations back. Pity they had to have a lighting gantry below it though.

The stage is enormous, so should easily accommodate Fairport.
