Carly Simon planning European dates

October 09, 2009 Singer/songwriter Carly Simon is planning to play concert dates in Europe early next year for the first time in her 38-year career, she told Reuters on Thursday. Times and places are still being worked out, but she expects to perform at small venues beginning in January, to promote her upcoming acoustic album "Never Been Gone." To coincide with the album's October 27 release in the United States, she plans to leave her home on the island of Martha's Vineyard, off the coast of Boston, to perform in New York on both ABC's "Good Morning America" and NBC's "Today."
