Brisbane gig please !!!!

Well the Tivoli has no events on the 9th of Feb. hint hint
Pencilled in are the 1st 2nd and 12th Feb.

But remember the 9th is as yet unbooked !!

Right off to email Frontier again.



Anything can happen!!

Okay I'm not jumping up and down and hyperventalating ! honest I'm not, just cool calm & collected.


Hi Kelly,

Thanks for your email. A day on the green are planning to have a show in Brisbane, but are awaiting council approval at this stage. We’ll post info on our website asap if there is to be a show.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

Frontier

Okay so they said, council approval.

I feel better for knowing something might happen at least !! Whew.

OHHHH. That would be cool, Kelly!!

We might get Pete Murray, too!!!

Excellent news Ms TT

And if they're going to do ADOTG, they should just throw in a concert as well.

Maybe they could do the concert while council approval takes the usual 12 months or so (Just kidding )

Shouldn't a problem getting council approval, surely. Chris Isaac is play ADOTG this Saturday at the Sirromet Winery, which is about 15 mins from where I live. It's lovely there. Wish I was going, actually.

If the Redland Shire Council can approve it for Chris, then they can approve it for Timmy.

Just got to keep checking the Frontier site. Well.. I've done my bit for the day.

U can add my name to the "Bring Tim to Brisneyland" campaign.

Go Brisbane!!!!

At least there would be 4 of us there hypothetically.
Seriously, the 2 Finn Bros shows filled the Convention Centre and the Enz filled the BEC.

WHAT MORE DO WE HAVE TO DO ???

Get on the MMM rock jury and get Tim's music played. See if my brother can get his songs on the old boys station he works for. Move over Doris Day !!
He played Bob Geldof's - Song of Indifference, and the old codgers rang up and complained, geez we laughed!!

All for the Brisbane concert!! I was gut wrenched when I found out there was no Brissy gig... PLEASE COME TO BRISBANE TIM!!!

p.s this is my very first post! Usually I just read the forums but thought this matter warranted a comment

^Thanks for the email today PG....looks like it's going to happen....thanks. Am so excited, I've never seen Tim solo and this is a great opportunity!!!!!!

So happy for you guys, great work



THANKS TIM

Yes Tim has been reading all your emails and it is looking good for a Brisbane show. Like always we shall wait till it's 100% and we will let you know, eitehr here or on Tim Frenz.com NEWS board.
(www.frenz.com/timfinn/). Guess it will eitehr be at the start or at the endd of the Tour.

The NEWS board seems to be being updated daily, so keep checking it out every few days.

Thanks
PG

Yes well, I was about to have a big cough and bring this thread up again. But don't need to, whew !
Sorry for PESTERING some people, well I'm not really as long as we get TIM up here in Brissy, I'll be a very happy camper.

Tivoli on the 9th of Feb was free . Some other dates were pencilled in around those dates if that helps at all. Goes off whistling......

Crossing fingers.

Thanks for working on it everyone.


Welcome along Davoiii

Peter, Tim, if at all possible can you PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make the Brisbane gig after the others so that Finngirl and I can make it. Finngirl so deserves to be there after the disaster that prevented her getting on that plane to the Auckland show!

Really pleased that it looks like you'll all be getting a Brisbane gig! I just can't wait for the UK tour next year! Roll on 2007!

Riverstage for a Day on the Green on the 18th !!!

Woohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !!

OOps that's from Tim's My Space page, so direct from the horses mouth, well okay typing fingers.

The 18th of November??

The other dates are for February for a Day On The Green so I'd take it as then.

Thank goodness! That's awesome!

Yes, all his Australian shows are in February so it'd have to be. There, doesn't seem to be anything else about it online as yet.

Oh, why did it have to be the 18th????? I'm so glad that he's coming to vegus, but I've got some smooth talking to do before I can commit. I guess it wasn't the 20th when I'm going to the Kylie concert that I've had the tickets for 18 months for. The 18th is a friends birthday and we're going to take her out to dinner......I have to do some smooth talking tomorrow!!!!!

YEE-HAAA!!
Sunday in the gardens sounds great.
Chalk one up for people power.
Thanks Tim & PG!

No, MK. Nothing on the ADOTG website or Frontier page. Mustn't be 100% confirmed yet.

This is all good...

Not counting the Finn Bros; Crowded House and Split Enz - does anyone know how many times Tim has played in Brisbane solo since Escapade?

I thinks it would be a pretty long time between drinks.

According to Max TV site ADOTG in Brisbane on the 18th Feb. 2007 at Sirromet Wines Mt.Cotton, with Pete Murray.

Thanks MT....I was in a panick it was this month, but February sounds fab...plenty of time for us to get organised!!!!! Yeeee Haaaaa

Re Tim solo gigs, I've been to 3. Tim toured Before and After, playing at Kelly's Pub South Brisbane and Seagulls (Tweed) in ?late '93 or 94. Last time he played the Arena in the Valley on the FTG tour. I think he skipped us for Tim Finn and Say it is so tours; Big Canoe I don't know about.

I only went to 2 of them Skasey, certainly didn't go to my namesakes pub...
didn't know about that one, probably living in Townsville at the time.
Nobody would come and dance with me down the front at Seagull's, and at the divey Arena, gotta love blacked out mirrors, ewwww that's a gross joint, was well back in the throng with beloved. That won't be happening again.

Molten says Mt Cotton, Tim says Riverside stage. I can't get into any of the flash sites. arghhhhhh its driving me nuts. So can you guys let me know what I'm missing out on.
7 plenty of time to organise your dates, and Penny you should be firing on all guns by then and ready for a dance.

Xing fingers still.

I'll be right as rain by then, Kelly, as long as someone will volunteer to look after 3 sprogs instead of just the two I have been palming off whenever a Finn type person comes to town.

I hope it's at the Sirromet Winery, Mt Cotton. It's just beautiful, and only 15 mins from my house!!

I'd prefer the River stage......Siromet is over an hour away from me...that's ok, I'm not fond of their wine so I'll be the driver.

I've decided Brisbane ANYWHERE is good now.

I'm hoping for Riverstage too... I'm guessing as the other venue is a winery it would be 18+?

Not sure. Last ADOTG at Sirromet Winery kids were allowed, so I presume this will be the same. All ages. Fingers crossed for some confirmation one way or the other very soon.

It's on people

Article says it will be held at the Gardens Point riverstage.

It's an 18+ gig.

Feb 18 - music begins at 4:15pm - artists include Pete Murry, Tim Finn, Sarah Blasko. Tex Perkins and Tim Rogers.

Tix on sale Nov 27.

Woohoooo its confirmed, thankyou very muchly there Perfectcord

YAAAAHHHHHH.......let's get organised guys.....I'm definately there!!!!! Bring blankets, chairs picnic etc.....it's a goer!!!!!

Any ideas how the reserved seating will work, considering they don't want chairs (and for good reason since it's a fairly steeply sloping grass amphitheatre)?
