More info on the Saw Doctors tour schedule can be found at their website: http://www.sawdoctors.com I keep looking for news of the US tour but the best info I have yet is May-June 2010. Will post an update as soon as I get the info.

Solas is a great Celtic band SláinteSteve put us onto. You can hear samples of their music at their website http://solasmusic.com/site/ or their myspace page http://www.myspace.com/solasmyspacemusic I will add these links to the tour page.

They have an extensive tour schedule planned for 2010 starting with the midwest. For a complete schedule please check their website by clicking here. They are covering a lot of territory so if they are performing near you please don’t miss them. They will be at the Dublin Irish Festival in Dublin, Ohio August 6-8. This is one I would love to attend myself. Also appearing at this festival are Enter the Haggis, Gaelic Storm, Barley Juice, Tartan Terrors and many other great acts.
