RE: Paul, Come To Australia
blakbrd:
Hi Guys heard from an inside source Paul is coming to Australia in February 2010!! Only three shows, apparently, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Pity Adelaide and Perth may miss out but I will be there anyway. Now this is not confirmed but I have been told Gold tickets will be $1200.00!!!!!!!!! I certainly hope not because that sort of charge prevents "REAL FANS" from getting the good seats!! Keep you all informed. Cheers Chrissie
it boggles the mind you would even believe that for a second.

Simon and Garfunkel tomorrow Mum Smokes/La Dispute w/ To The North, Quiet Steps, Arrows (haven't decided which show to go to) on the 10th of July Sounds of Spring festival in September The B-52's with The Proclaimers and Mental as Anything in November
Simon and Garfunkel still perform? I didn't know that....hmh
They reformed for a tour in 2004 and reformed again this year for an Australia/NZ/Japan tour only.
But...there are rumours that they "may walk off to look for America" in the fall. I hope that happens! By the way CharlieD, how was your S&G concert?
it was alright. Not amazing, but good. Mrs. Robinson was very disappointing, and a terrible classic rock guitar solo in America almost ruined it. The Boxer was mindblowing and hearing Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard was great. They played For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her for the first time in like 10 years and haven't played it at another show on the tour since, so I feel very lucky to have heard that. In other news I'm seeing the B-52s with The Proclaimers and Mental as Anything in November, and GZA in December I think.

RE: Paul, Come To Australia
If Paul was going to do a one-off concert here it'd either be for Sydney Festival or Q150. I'm guessing he'll probably headline Sydney Festival next year. On a similar note, I am very sad I missed Grace Jones at this year's Sydney Festival - and I think Brian Wilson headlined the year before that.

RE: Paul, Come To Australia
beatles1909 if Paul McCartney didn't do something because people doubted him he would have given up a long time ago. Besides, I doubt he reads this forum and feels less compelled to come here because three people say they don't think he'll come. :
