April Edition 
Ireland's most popular duo "Foster and Allen" are back for yet another tour - this time a 30 Day tour in September 2004, including Australia and New Zealand. The Irish duo Foster Allen have been perfecting their Celtic stylings since the mid-'70s, earning top honors overseas and among the worldbeat charts. Tony Allen, born and raised in Mount Temple, Ireland, had been playing professional guitar since 1968, and Mick Foster, a native of County Kildare, had been playing the piano accordion since his teens. As a group, the two made their U.S. debut in 1996 with the single "After All These Years.
Tour Dates The Empire Theatre - Toowoomba - A Queensland Gem !  One of my very favourite Theatres I have worked in Australia, is the Empire Theatre in Toowoomba - It has kept all it's charm of days gone by - and is always a highlight of any theatre Tour. Experiencing the magic of live theatre surrounded by a true work of art is the treat for audiences flocking to the beautifully restored art deco Empire Theatre in Toowoomba. After years of neglect, the 86 year old grand lady was plucked from cinematic obscurity and transformed into a thoroughly modern performing arts theatre triumphantly reclaiming its place as Toowoomba's cultural hub. On Saturday, June 30 1997, the Empire Theatre was reopened ushering in a new era of entertainment and performing arts on the Darling Downs.
