With his new Live In Manchester album dropping today, Don McLean has made it a particularly good Friday for his fans with an announcement of Irish dates for this September.
His May 31 and June 1 shows in Vicar St are already sold out - and visits to Derry and Cork are very close to doing similar - but the legendary 'American Pie' singer will be back on Irish shores for visits to The Seapoint in Galway (September 26), Vicar St (28), Limerick's University Concert Hall (29) and The Waterfront, Belfast (30).
Tickets, at €50 and €42, are available now.
