    Not exactly big acts....but it could be worse....

    Hey Climber 07,
    Thank you for being optimistic.
    You're right... I apologise for being a boob in my message. And that Greese Chick is coming August.

    No Dharma, you were right to begin with. Hong Kong is a worldwide city which should be getting more attention from bigger acts that are popular around the world. Nobody gives a $%!+ about eric chapman or roger water... We need some stars~!

    You are right, but Hong Kong has to do something about that as well. Let's face it, Hong Kong is not exactly a "Culture" capital.....The Museums are shit, The Art Museum is worse than the Art Gallery of Hong Kong University.....Theatre doesn't exist. (Heck look at Tokyo, they're even getting their own production of Broadway's Wicked coming in June). Stuff like that doesn't happen in Hong Kong. But a big part of of it is not that the stars are ignoring it....its because the city isn't doing enough to bring them here.

    Some more info on Avril Lavigne

    I'm not sure how much more this will add, but I hope it helps.

    Avril Lavigne will have a private gig or "party" on 3 May 2007 at HITEC in Kowloon Bay. It's billed as Avril Lavigne's "The Best Damn Thing" Party. Approx. 700 tickets are available but are NOT for public sale. Her record label have struck a deal with a number of corporate sponsors for distribution of these tickets. I believe these are Meko the beverage company (main sponsor) and Commercial Radio 2. I understand Yahoo will also distribute a limited number as well as SmarTone-Vodafone through their Music Now Service.

    How do I know this, well, before you all shoot me, I work for SmarTone-Vodafone. I hope you accept this as a friendly notification rather than a "commercial" announcement.

    I also understand that Avril Lavigne MAY add 1 gig (here in Hong Kong) later in the year to her Asia tour. If it happens then it will be open to general public.

    I hope all this helps.

    Regards
    Ricky
