Lil Kim Gig is now officially canceled.
Friday, August 27th, 2010
I’m unsure how to take this news. Why, well for one when I originally posted about the gig postponement and linked it to a couple of social networks the feedback from others who had been around long enough to know said it wouldn’t happen. I guess, I thought those days were behind us, with all the tours that do actually eventuate these days.
A few days later I received a very strange call. The person wouldn’t say who they were but they had information on an alleged promoter involved with this tour. Now, before anyone starts getting fired up, Joint Adventure and The Espy are top notch promoters. I know for a fact that Joint Adventure genuinely cares what happens in this culture and The Espy have really become an institution for Hip Hop acts in Oz over the past few years. I believe 100% that both of them would have done everything they could to make this tour happen.
Asides from that, this anonymous person started reeling off other failed tours that never happened and insinuated that they were all rip off jobs and suggested I follow it up. Well mate, maybe if you had given me your name I would have (but probably not). So this is all you get.
Moving on here’s the press release about the tour
It is with regret that we must announce the cancellation of the upcoming Lil Kim Melbourne show, which was scheduled to take place on Thursday Sept 16th at the Esplanade Hotel.
Event organisers, Joint Adventure and The Esplanade Hotel, worked day and night to make this show happen but due to circumstances beyond their control, were unable to get Lil’ Kim into the country for the scheduled performance.
All tickets previously purchased will be refunded in full by the outlet they were purchased from. We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused by this cancellation.
