Van Morrison for Joey
Concert
|
|
Music legend Van Morrison will be performing a Joey
Dunlop tribute concert during the TT festival. The singer, whose hits include
the classic Brown-Eyed Girl, is set to appear at an outdoor show at the Villa
Marina, Douglas, on Sunday, June 3.
Like the late racing star, killed
last year after notching up 26 TT wins, the singer is from Northern Ireland.
Tourism and Leisure Minister David Cretney said: 'The opportunity to
have Van Morrison to do the Joey Dunlop tribute was discussed with Linda
(Dunlop, Joey's widow) at Christmas or just before. She was supportive and he
was very keen when we heard what we proposed to do.'
Tickets for the
concert go on sale soon.
