It seemed suprising that a second show was announced when the 1st Sydney show's sales were slow. If he really wants a second show he should try it in Melbourne or Brisbane. The other idea is he might use the Thursday night to do a live performance on JJJ or soemthing. That would be cheaper and would get the sound out to a much wider audience. Ben

I think its time I came clean... The reason he cancelled the show is coming to my place for dinner. I've gonna do roast lamb... Heh.

Just some more fuel to the fire for those unhappy with Michael Chugg. This week's 'Drum Media' (free street press) in Sydney had a full page colour advert for the Billy Corgan concert on page 2 of the magazine, but only for the 1st Enmore Show. But go to page 11 and there is an article promoting the announcement of the 2nd show. Why did the full page colour advert not include the second show? And just how serious was Michael Chugg about staging the second show considering there was still 300 tickets left for thre first show. I though Chugg being involved in the music industry for so long could have handled the promotion for this tour a lot better.

chugg has done a pretty shitty job at advertising this tour, corgan was on sunrise - they did not mention the tour (he should have been over that like a bad rash), corgan's tour dates are not on triplej or channelv.com.au, i have not heard the tour mentioned once on channel v or mtv australia.
and its not like he is looking after any larger acts for the next few months, that would consider taking time away from the corgan tour.

corgan's tour dates are not on triplej or channelv.com.au There is a competition at the Music Max website. So i guess BC has proceeded to become a MAX artists! Not cool enough for the other channels anymore? hehe. And i also think that the advertising has been non existent. But i live in adelaide and am travelling to Brisbane so there has been NO ads in adelaide of course. At first i was shocked that the shows hadn't sold out on the day. I bought my tickets on the net as soon as they went on sale, then went to work and expected it to be sold out when i got home, but they werent! I then thought, well the only reason i knew about it was from his website, so i am guessing that not many ppl really know that he is coming. I hope that it goes well and that he isnt put off my a badly managed tour. I think he loves australia though, so we should get some great shows see you in brisbane!

There was a big 2 page pumpkins/corgan fold out in the Melbourne herald sun a couple of weeks ago, that mentioned the melb gig.
I think the promotion sucks ass. I got to the ticketmaster7 in myer at 8.30 in the mourning, and it was only me and another girl lining up. And there has been barely any adds, only a half page in beat magazine.
Compared to the coke live and local tour (which is a few local aussie bands) I went into the city the otherday, probably saw 30 live and local posters and 2 Corgan. And the Sunday Herald sun hit magazine hasnt even mentioned corgan in the gig guide
Hey if anyone hears of any Triple J gigs happening, interviews or whatever post it all over the site (coz i missed the sunrise interview and the letterman live gig)
Thanks If I wasnt 15 I'd be following Corgan round with you guys, that would be awesome) When I meet billy im gonna show him a 5 star review i clipped from a paper, I think he will like that much better than rolling stones 1 star.
