Gorman extra tour dates
January 14, 2010 – 11:56 am | by Peekay
In 2009 Dave Gorman did two things at the same time. He set out to cycle between the four corners of the British mainland, from south to east to west to north – and, five years after he last toured the UK, do a gig each night. 1500 miles. 33 days. 32 gigs. 4 lighthouses.
Gorman survived the cycling, ticking off Lizard Point, Lowestoft Ness, Ardnamurchan Point and Dunnet Head along the way and the gigs sold out (in venues ranging from the 2000 seats in Bristol’s Colston Halls to the 32 folk who could fit into the Glenfinnan Railway Station Dining Car). However, some people were upset. They were upset because the tour didn’t come to their local theatre. Angry e-mails were written. Explanations were demanded. People are strange like that. The fact that the tour followed a particular route for a particular reason – that it was planned as a bike ride before it ever became a tour – didn’t seem to placate them. So… to meet the extraordinary demand, DAVE decided to extend the tour into 2010. But this time without cycling from venue to venue. Because cycling from Dorking to Belfast would be silly. There’s a sea in the way. He’s obviously getting lazy.
