Abi Moore live in Lincoln -
8.45pm
Union Road
Lincoln UK 01522 514000
Price: Free
Back to giggage? Ok then, if you insist. I shall throw my old mate Mr Tanglewood over my shoulder (oh, but he is soon to be replaced with a brand spanking new guitar!), stamp all over Vito, the magic red box and wrap my lips around my beautiful and ever trustworthy EV microphone for one night only. Yes indeedy, and that night shall be SATURDAY 26th MAY and the establishment in which I shall do this is THE VICTORIA PUB in the glorious old town of Lincoln, or Lindum as it was once known.
Shall I try out some new stuff? Yes, I think I shall. And would you do me the honour of bringing your lovely bodies, gorgeous hearts and open ears down to engage in this fabulous spectacle? Oh, please do. It's free and everything...

Abi Moore Live in Munich -
6.45pm
Munich University
Munich Bavaria Ger
Price: see website
Hooray! I'm jetting off back to Munich for the very cool StuStaCulum Festival, held at Munich University. (This jaunt to Munich is becoming a twice-a-year thing now: I'm very much liking it!)
I'll be "Leeeeaviiiing oooon a jet plane," then climbing into a Lufthansa airport shuttle bus, then shooting through the UBahn and arriving (guitar in arms, if the baggage handlers know what's good for them) at the University site in good time for my Saturday evening set.
Last year was absolutely phenomenal, and mightily humbling. I presumed that being a songwriter from England no-one had heard of, that I would be playing to one man and his dog. Instead, the venue (Café Dada, for those of you who are coming) was packed to capacity with 160 amazing people who bought CDs and humoured me by pretending my German was understandable!
I had an amazing time and look forward to more of the same. Would be great to see those of you on my mailing list who've been coming to see me in Munich at the festival and Café Camera... x
I play an hour's set.

Abi Moore Live in Grantham -
8.30pm
The Drift,
Harlaxton, Grantham Lincolnshire NG32 1AD
UK 01476 577076
Price: Free
In today's Gigging News, I shall be trotting along to the very beautiful Gregory (which, for those of you who haven't been, is a lush little place for food, drink and music.)
If you get there earlier than me, it probably means you've booked a table in the restaurant (lucky you) and you'll catch me setting up my wares in the porchway ready for an evening of lovely live music.
If not, then you've probably come just for a drink and to watch me play: in which case...get yourself a seat while you can because it always gets busy in the porch and bar area with lovely devoted listeners (oh, how I love you!)
It's free entry, which is always a bonus, and I will be trying out some new songs from my next album: I'm aiming to do this at every gig now so I can try them out and let you get to know them. (That way, y'see, when you buy the album you can sing along with it straight away!)
And for your reference: my favourite drink at the bar is the Belvoir Fruit Farm Elderflower Pressé. Anyone wishing to leave a glass of it by my piano is welcome to do so...

Golden Fables/ Choir Invisible -
2pm
The Embassy Centre

Price: £5
I'll be soloing with the fantastic Choir Invisible in a new project: Golden Fables. You can read more about the project here: http://www.sofestival.org/golden-fables-2012/
The project is part of the Olympics and we will, quite terrifyingly, be broadcast singing at the Games to a potential audience of millions, so this is the first step in that process! The next step will be our performance at Latitude Festival. So come along and be part of the audience and you may find your face projected onto the Olympic screens this summer!

The Latitude line-up this year is astounding in my eyes (although I do favour singer/songwriters): Laura Marling, Bon Iver, Michael Kiwanuka, Rufus Wainwright, Paul Weller, Elbow, etc. Also appearing are Tim Minchin and Jack Dee, so if you're not watching me onstage with Choir Invisible, you'll find me navigating the music tents in search of these legendary musicians and comics!

The Bowl Full
Abi Moore as you've probably never seen her before! -
TBA
T.B.A
Price: TBA
OK, so I can't give you very much info on this yet as I'm not sure what's happening myself, but there's a slight possibility that I will be performing at the Bowl Full in Lincoln on this date, but not in my usual role of singer/songwriter...
...Err, it would appear that my secret hobby of flamenco dancing has taken a turn for the better and I may now be booked for a flamenco show with Fiesta Flamenco on a special Spanish evening. I think the restaurant are doing a big Tapas night with fantastic wine, tapas, music and flamenco dancing!
So I may be parading around in a Spanish dress, stamping my feet manically (in my GORGEOUS flamenco shoes that I love) and curling my wrists wildly across a stage.
I'll only do it if you come and support me... :-)
More details to follow...
