Hey everyone,
The Pavrotti concert was so highly publicized, it almost became the "event of the year" kind of thing. Tickets were sold out fast. People were put on waiting list for the tickets. There have been cases of people being bumped off the waiting list to sell the tickets to those were who already at the box office. When the new batch of tickets came in, 100s of the people lined up at the Spinneys supermarket, where the line went outside of the market, around the block. People were excited about this Farwell Pavrotti concert.
So, I think the letters to the editors in the Gulf News proved to me how great and awesome this concert was, not!
Let's hope Westlife and Destiny's Child prove to be better shows. I remember when Westlife came two years ago. 99% of the people there were 9 to 14 years old girls! Goes to show who their real fanbase are! :)
In fact, I think I was really lucky to be able to see the Bryan Adams concert, which was a great one, hassle-free one, and quite an enjoyable and energetic one!
Take care you all--- you did not miss anything with Pavrotti!

Hey HA
I always hear time and again from different people in the newspapers and magazines that they are upset with this or that concert. Remember the Peter Andre one? That was embarrasingly short!! :) Many people are upset with the organizational structure of ticketing and seating. There are very few successful concerts. Which is why I said I was very lucky to go to Bryan Adams concert with you-- everything went well and we actually enjoyed it!
