The Festival's website has a blurb about the Shoes which includes ...

... much to the delight of their fans, Procol Harum took to the road again in May, June and December of 2001, playing sell-out band gigs to highly enthusiastic audiences of all ages in Denmark, Poland, Norway, St Petersburg and at The Kremlin Palace, Moscow, which was filmed for Russian TV. Procol Harum's summer dates culminated in another prestigious orchestral collaboration, this time with the Hallé Orchestra and Hallé Choir at The Bridgewater Hall in Manchester on 17th June, attended by loyal fans from all over Europe and North and South America.

As well as his work with No Stiletto Shoes, Gary has been back on the road with Procol Harum in 2002, touring in the UK and Europe to promote Procol Harum's first ever DVD Live from Copenhagen, just released by Classic Pictures.

 

No Stiletto Shoes 2002 will consist of Gary Brooker, piano and vocals; Andy Fairweather-Low, lead guitar and vocals; Procoler Dave Bronze, bass; Procoler Graham Broad, drums, and Nick Pentalow, saxes. They stole the show in 1999, so expect the same in 2002! We hope to get a report on this gig for BtP, but <blush>Kate and Anna McGarrigle present a strong rival attraction the same night</blush>!
