Ok this is a little far in advance but I will be traveling to Europe in April 2011 for Musikmesse and will be there for two weeks to promote an upcoming CD release.

I would love to play in as many cities and countries as realistically possible but I don't really know of any venues in Europe.

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated and I hope to meet many European players while I am there.

Thanks.

Mmmmmmhhh, pretty interesting...

Oh, very cool!

I'd love for you to come to Porto, Portugal.
I'm not much of a gigging musician but I can maybe look around for venues and the sort.

Wow, that's cool !
The Netherlands is surely a place to visit and play.
I live in Breda (southern part of NL close to Belgium border). We have a venue that programs a lot of different genres, so i'm gonna see what I can do for you
And Gouda is about an hour's drive from Breda (that's where Ron Baggerman lives).

What kind of venues are you aiming for (in terms of capacity and style) ?

Cheers,
Bas.

Kevin,
Off topic but... I would love to purchase a CD of your tunes played by you on Stick with a drummer. That EMG teaser of you playing Stick to a drum groove is outstanding. I don't know about mass market penetration, but I think that every Stick player on the planet would want one.
Just do it!

Thanks for the great replies, your interest and your efforts.

I will be playing solo or with a drum track so the type of venues I'm looking for could be small and intimate, maybe 100 - 300 people. I'm not opposed to larger venues, I just assume my audience will be smaller considering its my first visit.

I will be bringing a rack with my effects so my requirements beyond that are a power amp and speakers or an in house PA system.

My new CD is primarily songs with myself and drum grooves. Some songs have vocals and some are instrumental.
This is something I have wanted to do for some time so I'm happy that its finally happening.

I would love to come to the Netherlands and I am trying to put something together in Frankfurt during the time of Musikmesse.
I will play anywhere there is an audience that will listen if I am able to schedule travel.

I just love to play.

Thanks again to all of you.

Hello everyone.
Currently planning performances in France and Frankfurt.

Thanks to everyone who sent emails and Facebook messages.
This is exciting!

Hey Kevin ! Would you like to come back in Nantes (France) ?
BTW I know something is preparing around Paris and I'll be there for sure.

I would love to return to Nante again.
I really enjoyed the city of Nante and the people there were wonderful.

Youenn Landreau lives there and he is a great Stick player. I may contact him and ask his thoughts on this.

Thanks.
Kevin
