Alistair Hulett will be touring the US with David Rovics in April 2006:
<blockquote>APRIL 10-24 or so: US tour (or parts thereof) with Alistair Hulett, great songwriter, amazing guitarist and interpreter of trad Scottish music, all the way from (you guessed it) Scotland! Details below as they become clear... Contact me [at <http:// members.aol.com/drovics/contact.htm>] to organize a date in your area!

Check out Hulett's music at <http://www.folkicons.co.uk/sound2.htm>. Listen to <http://www.folkicons.co.uk/dontsignup.ra>, at least. Also go to <http://www.stud.ntnu.no/~makarov/temporary_url_20050704hnbdv/ internationale-en-alistair_hulett_1991.mp3>.
Organizers who like their music can invite them both for about $1,000, I think, so they need to be able to sell 200 $5 tickets or get much of the cost covered by college student groups who can get money from universities.
