German Tour Round Up and New UK Tour Dates


Irish Cruise

“An incredible week in the Caribbean with Brian and Finbarr. One of the very special times we've had together, and we all had our wives with us to make it perfect. Huge thanks to Gertrude Byrne for a sensational cruise with top class artists including Nathan Carter, Engelbert, Charlie Pride, Michael English and so many more.
Great times.”

Oldenburg

"Oldenburg! Wow! That was nuts!
What a way to spend Friday night. Too much fun. Thank you to every one of you for an incredible evening." #hk18 #germany #holdenburg



Hamburg

“Tonight in Hamburg, the force that is music presented itself in all its beauty.
Our stage manager told me that during 'The Town I Loved so Well' he saw an old man and a young lady in different parts of the audience cry during different parts of the song.
Here we are in Germany, and an amazing song written by Phil Coulter about Derry has carried that far and deeply affected two people that have possibly never been to Ireland.
That's magic. That's music.” #hk18



Berlin

“Thank You Berlin. What a great night. One of the best audiences of the tour. A fantastic welcome back to your great city. To those fans we met that traveled from The UK, Poland, Hungary and Italy especially for the show...we can't thank you enough. Unreal dedication.” #hk18 #germany



Leipzig

Leipzig! What a way to wrap up the German leg of the Decade tour. Unreal night. Fantastic crowd and atmosphere. Thank you Germany! 'Til next time.” #decade #hk18



From the Archives

This time he left the accordion playing to Sharon Shannon who joined them on stage for a few songs.
