Has Peter had warm up acts for any of his prior New Blood shows? I'm thinking it might be difficult given there is an entire orchestra to seat. I kind of hope he doesn't as it would be nice to get right to the show. I always hate the wait between the warmup acts and the headliner.

Ane Brun will most likely be the warmup act. It's just her and her guitar. She has a lovely voice.

Yes, as Take a Wild Guess mentioned, Ane Brun will most likely come out and do a few songs (and I mean a very few - like, two!). She's got a marvelous voice and it's a nice way to start the show.
BTW - This is one show that begins promptly - with Ane Brun opening, PG coming right on afterward. For those of you who like to hang outside, waiting for the main act, you don't really have much time, so it's best to get your beers, go to your seats and just sit back and relax . . . and please pee before you take your seat and hold it in until the intermission or end of show :-] (If necessary, I will set up a booth and I can place a foley catheter for the duration of the show :-] I'm a registered nurse, quite capable in the procedure and I promise you that it'll be well worth it! :-]

You crack me up Pat!!! You could and should have placed several catheters during the Hammersmith shows, to keep the foot traffic down in your row next to the door to the Men's room! I was in the same row on the 24th, but way over to the opposite side of the theater next to the Women's room, and the backstage door. The only foot traffic we had was at the very beginning of the show when a parade of lucky people with backstage passes paraded past us to go to their seats, which also included Peter's Mom and his wife passing by.
