I doubt that there will be a Meet&Greet offered due to the Corona situation. I just hope that there will be no further delay of the tour.

It was mentioned on the ticket, therefore I thought it was something special.

doors open 20:00, show starts 20:30 (local time)

ticket includes free public transportation in Luxembourg on show day.

Got my first tickets from the ticket-seller Reservix. All are computer-tickets and differ only in the text printed on it. Some variations in the title are

Heather Nova & Guests
The Pearl Acoustic Tour

and

The Pearl Acoustic Tour
Heather Nova
+Guest

Presale of the tickets for the german tour dates starts on February 17th,2021 at 14:00 CET.

I'm doing some tour planing right now. Well from a fan point of view Checked the address of DeSinger with Google StreetView and there is just a normal house from the outside visible, no concert hall or so. When you look at the photos from previous events on the website, it seems to be a very small venue, like just a big cellar. Maybe for 30 to 40 people. Would explain of course why it is already sold out. No idea why this small venue was choosen. Anyway, great it will be a quite intimate concert.

33 concerts is a big challenge! Heather about 7 days performing in a row and then a little break. Quite a big stress to the voice. On the other hand I so much understand after this long break that she loves and values even more to perform. Just so much hope it works for her and her fans!

It is also a challenge in regards to distances. Without having counted the way from maybe London and back it is something 11.000+ km's of driving. But Heather loves it anyway to be on the road and the bus and is used to it for plenty of years.

As I'm really independent and have time, I thought I can join this entire tour, like I did sometimes in the past. But this tour is much bigger than ever thought. For me it would be 12.500 km. From rough early thoughts I think I can make 22 to 26 concerts. Guess I will skip some to just explore towns I do not know or were I haven't been for a long time.

A Heather Nova tour is always vacation for me and it opens heart! I'm so grateful that Heather is thinking hopeful "sees light at the end of this long and harrowing tunnel".

Fingers crossed!

This message was part of the announcement of the german tour dates by Target Concerts, the german tour agency. I'm on the mailing list of one of their agents.

"Acoustic Tour 2021" seems to be now the official name of the tour according to this tour poster/flyer/foto. Target concerts wrote in the info-mail "Acoustic Duo Tour 2021". Maybe a hint in terms of number of musicians.

(thanks to Heinz for this foto)

This will become the new tour thread for 2021. Also the tour name changed, as it seems not just a Pearl acoustic tour anymore.

I will add all dates in the first posting of this thread.

Just found another tour date. There are tickets available for

2021-10-27 Vienna, Porgy&Bess

It's the same location where she played in 2019.

In this time of terrible uncertainty and fear, the one thing we have to hold on to is hope. And through this dark time, one of the things that’s brought us hope and comfort has been music.In light of this, and I do see light at the end of this long and harrowing tunnel, I’m planning to go ahead with my acoustic tour in October & November, (which was already planned before the pandemic).
I know this will be an extra special tour; I have always felt it a privilege to play live concerts, but now the privilege will feel even greater. I hope you share my hope, and that you will join me, to once again gather together and share music.

With love and thanks.
Heather

For sure it will be more paper work and might cause additional costs, but as the tour is still plenty of month ahead, her management has enough time to manage this, i think.

I wouldn't mind if the tickets will be a little bit more expensive due to it. I would be happy if she still tours Europe as often as possible.

'21 is gonna be a good year (from Tommy / The Who)

And for sure, the New Year Concert from Vienna is the best concert to start into 2021!

Is there a way to participate online, to clap during Radetzky March maybe?

Concert highlight today: Roger Waters

German TV 3SAT sends concerts 24 hours on New Years Eve. A few hours ago Roger Waters from the 3 concerts in Amsterdam of his US&Them Tour in 2018. A 2 hours show. And you can still watch online and also download somewhere (Not sure so in terms of Geo blocking)

https://www.3sat.de/kultur/pop-around- ... ock/roger-waters-100.html

Happy Birthday, Arne!

Have a wonderful birthday Matt!

I hoped I could open this thread, but Bernd is always faster, or to say better, I'm to slow

Anyway, Happy Birthday Estelle!

My next concert will be Vienna Teng on December 12th, 2020

https://www.viennateng.com/tour

It is a virtual concert, streamed live and a"pay what you want" concert starting a $10. You can of course pay more if you want to support the artist.

I would for sure bid for her Taylor T5! It's beautiful! Told Heather years ago. But ths guitar she will never sell.

I like the wood of this Telecaster, but I doubt I will bid. Would be a nice decoration item so on the wall for me.

Thanks for the info!

Just looked in my archive. Heather played this guitar at the fall tour in 2011 when performing sugar. Picture made in Mainz, Germany 2011.

On heathernova.com in the live section the concert is really listed as Sold Out!
Is this a special intimate concert with a very small audience? Anyway, I'm happy to got a ticket and will tell.

Really sad, that this concert scheduled for today had to be posponed. My new and first Apple Watch reminded me and showed me the ticket to present at the entry. Oh well, no concert today.

Just wonder, if I will get another reminder, whenever the rescheduled concert will happen. I doubt Apple devices will do automatically!

Yes and I think Vincent really well captured this in this photo.

Maybe I should open a separate thread about masks.
I do know Indigosongs, they have very beautiful masks and will order.

I think even longterm, even if Corona is dead one day, we will need masks to protect each other, be more sensitive each other, even if you just have a little cough. Japanese people do for plenty of years just to tell other people, I want to protect you from my possible illness. It's a thing of respecting each other. It is not just about Corona!

And I really would like to have unique masks for my own feeling to wear it, when I have to do. It just feel more comfortable to me.

Recently I ordered a pink mask with white stars on it. Just want to feel good wearing a nice mask, not just the standard ones.

I really would like if Heather would do some artwork for masks! Would be a nice merchandising article as well.

Germany released an entire travel warning due to Corona for Belgium now. I so much hope, it will not happen next year in autumn.

Just a note from them:

Got an email by SPOT Groningen:

Just received an email by Rowtown. New concert date in Arminius is Friday October 8th, 2021.

Already bought tickets remain valid. If for any reason you cannot join you can get a full refund or a parcial refund, if you like to donate some money or the entire ticket price to Rowntown.

I have no doubts that The Pearl Acoustic Tour will happen sooner or later. There is no new album so far scheduled. Sure Heather has already new songs written. And I'm really sure Heather wants to perform live again in front of an audience as soon as possible.

I sent Heather an email two days ago, asking which concerts will happen in 2020 as I/we need to plan hotels and whatever. I didn't get a direct answer, but on her website the 2020 tour dates have been removed now and the Bospop Festival in 2021 is now listed. So it's clear now, no concerts in 2020 due to the virus.

All "old" tour dates are still on heathernova.com and you can order tickets for those dates.

I do have tickets for all concerts. Still haven't booked hotels. I really would appreciate an official information if the concerts will happen or not. Some venues have Corona concepts. Some might be ok to perform and join. Well just 3 weeks left.

Where is that announced? Source?

The concert in Groningen seems to be rescheduled. I found the new concert date on the german ticketmaster website

https://www.ticketmaster.de/artist/heather-nova-tickets/5022

New concert date is Saturday October 9th, 2021
