I WOULDN'T usually put the name Daniel O'Donnell in the same sentence with the words rock 'n' roll, but just look what the Irish singer is offering his British fans.

Get ready to boogie the night away this autumn with the Daniel in Blue Jeans Rock 'n' Roll Tour. Daniel will perform many of his favourite tracks from his rock 'n' roll albums with his own band, including brass section, dancers and backing vocalists.

Enjoy a two-day all-inclusive coach break with Newmarket Promotions to join Daniel at the Clyde Auditorium in Glasgow on September 17, or travel to London to the Royal Albert Hall on September 30.

Prices start at £129 per person and include one night's bed and continental breakfast based on a twin room with private facilities at a three-star hotel in the central belt of Scotland, London or surrounding area (depending on which venue you choose); a stalls, arena or tiered box ticket for Daniel's concert; return coach transfers between your hotel and the concert venue; a visit to either central Edinburgh or central London on the second day, again depending on which concert venue you choose, and your return coach travel between your selected local pick-up point and hotel.

Or make your own way to a host of venues including the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle, the Manchester Evening News Arena, Sheffield Arena, NIA Birmingham, Cardiff International Centre or Brighton Centre. Included in the price of £135 per person you are guaranteed an arena seat in the front 15 rows for Daniel's concert at your selected venue; one night's bed and full breakfast based on a twin room with private facilities at a four-star hotel within convenient coach transfer distance of your selected venue and return coach transfers between your hotel and the concert venue. A central London hotel upgrade is also available for a £15 per night supplement per person.

If Barry Manilow is more to your taste, Newmarket Promotions has secured tickets for the singer's Music and Passion show at The Las Vegas Hilton. Departing on October 24 and November 1, prices start from £609 per person (based on two people sharing a twin/double room) and include return flights from Manchester to Las Vegas; three night's accommodation in a room with private facilities at the Four Queens Hotel (upgrade to Circus, Circus Hotel available); airport to hotel transfers and a ticket to see Barry Manilow in Las Vegas (ticket upgrade available).

Music fans should reserve their tickets by booking through Reader Travel on 01904 567123 or request a brochure by telephoning 01904 567124.
