We're planning... hope they'll do a real concert, not part of the festival...

[Tupi]

yeah...so we should wait a little more to see if they're coming closer to us :D

[captainCorr]

Well, a bit of news....

Looks like the Locarno (Switzerland) concert may not go through....it's not listed anymore on the Official Site.... :confused:
So only one Switzerland gig left (Montreux)! :)

But still nothing about ticketsales.... :confused:

[Tupi]

humm...thanks for the info...montreux is a possibility...:huh: thanks for keeping us updated! :D

[Shannia]

Any new date?

[captainCorr]

Originally posted by Shannia

[captainCorr]

Originally posted by Tupi

I think it's part of the Jazz Festival.... it's within those dates and they've already played there in '98....so it's very possible! :)

[Tupi]

sorry i misexpressed myself, i meant, is it going to be a 3-songs-concert or a 20-songs-concert, kind? :smirk:;)

[captainCorr]

Originally posted by Tupi

Probably the latter....but we'll not find out before April....:(
('Coz ticketsales won't commence until then, and then we'll also get some more details)

[Tupi]

ok ;) thanks alot :p

[captainCorr]

I....I....have some bad news.... :uhh: :sad:

The 2nd (and last) Swiss date has also been removed from the site.... :dunno:

So no concert dates in Switzerland (yet) at the moment....

But I can only give 2 explanations:

1) It's has been cancelled and the deal is off....

2) It's not 100% sure yet, 'coz the official press conference (announcing the artists etc.) is on April 22th; 2 months away....
So they'll probably wait until then....:)

I'm very sorry and hope everything will turn out okay! :)

[Shannia]

Aww too bad for the swiss fans:sad:

[Pooky]

Oh... ok :( it's sad but I really hope they'll do a concert where i can go to!

[Tupi]

me too :sad:

[captainCorr]

Good news!!

Someone mailed the Official Site and asked them about the Switzerland date and he got a positive reply;
He was told that the reason the dates were removed was because ticket sales hadn't started yet (and won't be starting yet in the near future).... But when they do, it'll be put back on the site! :great:

So that means those concerts are still going through only you have to wait a bit longer (for ticket sales)....:)

[Shannia]

That´s fine!:D
I wanna more tourdates:p

[Tupi]

awesome news mathias! thanks!

[captainCorr]

Probably good news for the Spanish people!! :D

Thank you so much for the update!:kiss:

[Shannia]

I had been looking at El Corte Inglés website and they didn´t say anything about the Benidorm concert yet.It will be better if I go to ask about it and not for internet, but they will update it soon I think:)

[ka-ching]

Spanish sites...We´re always late:funny: It´s weird they doesn´t have anything about Sting or the big summer concert on Benidorm that will bring Latins singers for the human cause...They are not making very promo about that and it will be a huge moment for Alicante. I think even more than when last year went the Rolling Stones..
Anyway, like I said before, the best thing if some spanish is interested on that concert (like Silvi can be, because it´s close to Valencia) is going to the store and ask for it. If you are lucky maybe you don´t ask to the incompetent shop assistant that always appear when you do really want something or you don´t have a lot of time to go shopping...:funny::p

Valencia
Benidorm atrae a The Corrs

La banda irlandesa tocará el 15 de julio en la plaza de toros alicantina cerrando una serie de conciertos que completan Sting el 3 de junio y Bob Dylan el 9 de julio

A. C./ VALENCIA

http://www.lasprovincias.es/valencia/edicion/prensa/fotos/200402/28/1291748_encuadre.jpg
Andrea, Caroline, Sharon y Jim, los hermanos Corrs, cuyo apellido da nombre al grupo The Corrs.

La plaza de toros de Benidorm volverá a acoger nuevos conciertos este verano con la música de Bob Dylan, Sting y The Corrs. La banda británica presentará el 15 de julio su último trabajo, Borrowed Heaven , que saldrá a la venta en mayo. Los hermanos irlandeses siguen en la línea que se marcaron desde sus inicios como banda en 1990, con una mezcla de música tradicional irlandesa, pop y música celta.

En el 1995 grabaron su primer álbum, Forgiven, not forgotten , que llegó a los dos millones de copias vendidas en todo el mundo y con el que consiguieron un reconocimiento al llegar al gran público. Su segundo disco es Talk On Corners , que fue editado en 1998, obteniendo una gran aceptación sus canciones “Only When I Sleep”, “Don’t Say You Love Me” y “I Never Loved You Anyway”, entre otras.

Tanto Sting como The Corrs traen nuevo material recién editado. Sting será el primero en pisar tierras alicantinas, concretamente el 3 de junio, con los trece temas de Sacred Love bajo el brazo, su disco más reciente que vio la luz el pasado mes de septiembre y que ha estado muy marcado por la sombra de la catástrofe vivida en las Torres Gemelas neoyorquinas.

Tras nueve años de trayectoria con Police, Gordon Matthew Summoner (es su verdadero nombre) inició una carrera en solitario que ha dado como fruto once trabajos en los que ha coqueteado con el jazz y ha mezclado el estilo de Police con otras influencias. Fiel a su compromiso con el planeta, Sting destinará un euro de los 35 que cuesta la entrada de este concierto a la Fundación Terra Natura.

Cuarenta y tres álbumes
El 9 de julio será el turno de Bob Dylan, mito viviente y cantautor por excelencia. Lleva cuarenta años sobre un escenario y en ese tiempo ha publicado 43 álbumes, incluyendo directos y bootlegs oficiales. Como cantautor ha colonizado varios estilos. Su voz ha roto moldes y su fuerza creativa ha marcado poderosamente la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Incluso en la actualidad se están utilizando sus canciones para anuncios en televisión.

Las entradas para estas tres citas ya están a la venta a un precio de 30 euros en el caso de Dylan y The Corrs (cada uno), y a 35 para Sting. Podrán adquirirse en El Corte Inglés (902 400 222), en ServiCam (902 444 300), en el Kiosco de la Plaza Triangular de Benidorm (965 861 718) y en la plaza de toros alicantina (966 802 405).

Sting, Bob Dylan y The Corrs, confirmados este verano en Benidorm

El consistorio y Mundosenti2 todavía negocian la llegada de Prince a la espera de su gira europea y las actuaciones irán de la Plaza de Toros a Foietes si hay demanda

LA VERDAD/BENIDORM

http://www.laverdad.es/alicante/edicion/prensa/fotos/200402/28/091D6ALIP1_1.jpg
HERMANOS. Los irlandeses The Corrs llegarán en directo a Benidorm en julio. /LA VERDAD


Los cantantes Sting y Bob Dylan y el grupo The Corrs actuarán este verano en Benidorm, ciudad que continúa afianzando su posición en el mercado internacional como destino de grandes conciertos, según comentó ayer la empresa organizadora, Mundosenti2.

Los tres conciertos se ofrecerán en la plaza de toros de Benidorm, en caso de no venderse más de 10.000 entradas, aunque si se supera esta cifra se celebrarán en el campo de fútbol de Foietes, recinto en el que ya actuaron artistas como The Rolling Stones, Elton John y Luis Miguel.

El ex líder y vocalista del desaparecido grupo The Police, quien actuará también en Barcelona, presentará el próximo 3 de junio en Benidorm los trece temas de Sacred Love, disco editado el pasado mes de septiembre.

La trayectoria de Sting está jalonada de reconocimientos, como el reciente galardón que recibió en la última edición de los Grammy.

Fiel a su compromiso con el medio ambiente, Sting cederá, según el responsable de Mundosenti2, Lorenzo Pérez, «un euro de los 35 que cuesta la entrada del concierto a la Fundación Terra Natura», creada con el objeto de promover y contribuir a la conservación, investigación y educación del entorno.

Por otra parte, Benidorm recibirá el 9 de julio a Bob Dylan, cuya actuación estaba inicialmente prevista para septiembre de 2003.

Mito viviente y cantautor por excelencia, mostrará en vivo su característico modo de concebir la música, tras cuarenta años sobre los escenarios y docenas de discos en estudio y directo.

Populares

Según los críticos, su influencia en la música popular es incalculable y va desde el pop al rock & roll, folk-rock o country-rock.

El concierto de los hermanos irlandeses The Corrs tendrá lugar el 15 de julio y servirá para presentar su último trabajo Borrowed Heaven, que verá la luz en mayo.

Siguen en la línea que se marcaron desde sus inicios como banda en la década de los 90, con una mezcla de música tradicional irlandesa, pop y música celta.

«El de Benidorm será uno de los dos conciertos que The Corrs ofrecerá en España, ya que es un grupo que no se prodiga mucho por el país», declaró el responsable de Mundosenti2, promotora del concierto.

El alcalde de Benidorm, Vicente Pérez Devesa, indicó que «falta todavía por confirmar el concierto de Prince, que está pendiente de organizar su gira europea», y se mostró convencido de que «todos los conciertos se celebrarán en Foietes» y de que se venderán más de 20.000 entradas. El Ayuntamiento ha querido anunciar con antelación las fechas de los principales actos musicales del verano para que «los tour operadores puedan incluir en sus paquetes de vacaciones la entrada de los conciertos y lograr así una mayor promoción de la ciudad a nivel internacional», explicó el regidor.

Las actuaciones de Sting, Bob Dylan y The Corrs se suman al 46664 Latino, el concierto benéfico contra el sida que promueve la Fundación Nelson Mandela y que tendrá lugar en el estadio de Foietes de Benidorm el 21 de agosto.

-Vale-

[captainCorr]

The Official site finally lists all of the (9) Canadian concerts.... :scowl: :smirk:
No word there on the US dates, so it's likely more dates will be announced....:)

Ticket sales for the Canadian dates will commence (according to the official site) in the first week of May.... (although the Ottawa date is listed with a June 4th date.... :uhh: )

[captainCorr]

For the Spanish fans....more info about ticket sales for the Benidorm gig:

Tickets for Benidorm (http://entradas.elcorteingles.es/programas/Espectaculo.asp?numEspectaculo=200400282)

Click on "seleccionar entradas" (= select tickets)
Then in the next window you have to put under "Cantidad"(=Quantity) the number of tickets u want to buy and then click "Aceptar".
then in the next window you have to click the green button (Aceptar) again but you'll have to get the tickets in any of the "El Corte Ingles" shops. You can see where they are if you click on "Centros El Corte Ingles" (only in Spain and Portugal)

btw, I bought them through ServiCam and they sent me an e-mail telling me the concert will b in July 19th instead of the 15th and they are sending me the tickets yet.
the tickets are available there also (www.cam.es and click "ServiCAM Venta de Entradas" on the right side of the site)

But they will give a gig in Sweden at the RIX FM Festival on May 21st in Stortorget....:D

[captainCorr]

Update....

The Alberta gigs in Edmonton & Calgary are cancelled.... It's still not clear why or if they will be rescheduled, but they're off....

2nd September 2004 - Ottawa, National Arts Centre - ON, Canada ---- CANCELLED

Hmm... I know someone who isn't happy :eek:

[Paul]

OK this seems like a good place to do this:

OMG I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL MONDAY!!!!!! :D

Paul:)

[aFinn]

Ah, Liverpool awaits, eh? :D

Say hi to Sharon and Caroline for me :funny:
Don't wave to Jim though... you know... :p

[Roger]

Hmm... I know someone who isn't happy :eek:

Yes, that would be me!! I think if they went so far as to sell tickets, they have an obligation to follow through and uphold their end of the bargain. As far as I am concerned, ill health is the only acceptable reason to cancel out. And we know it isn't that because the Toronto concert is still on.

Well, if I don't hear a persuasive reason for the cancellation, I have bought my last Corrs CD and certainly won't be tempted by another Corrs concert in the future.

Way to break into a new market, guys!!


Roger

[Paul]

Ah, Liverpool awaits, eh? :D

Say hi to Sharon and Caroline for me :funny:
Don't wave to Jim though... you know... :p

Yeah my kinda town!!! :D Just hope it doesn't rain......

Paul:)

[aFinn]

No, rain is Shania weather :funny:

[Paul]

Hmmmm rain is ANYONE'S weather in this country! I don't care, as long as there are no clouds between me and the stage I'm fine with that.

Paul:)

[aFinn]

You should be fine then! :D

Have fun at the concert! :D And remember a review for us :D

[Paul]

I will......Thanks, I'll try and take some photies! My first Corrs concert.....

Paul:)

[aFinn]

I will......Thanks, I'll try and take some photies! My first Corrs concert.....

Paul:)
Ah, greatness! :up:

Ah, first concert? Cool!!! I wish they'd announce a concert in Finland or Sweden, but they haven't added any lately... so I don't know if I'll ever see them live :sad:

[Roger]

Still no explanations to Canadian fans as to why they cancelled concerts in Ottawa, Edmonton and Calgary. How rude!

It will be a frosty Friday in July before I even play a Corrs CD again.


Roger

[aFinn]

As far as I know, no reasons given for rescheduling the Shania concerts either back then. Does that mean you are not listening to any Shania cds either? :p

[Paul]

Well it was a superb concert last night. :up:

They were so professional, the new songs from the new album got a great response, and they performed the majority of their greatest hits. Andrea was great, she reminded me a lot of Stevie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac, very "floaty"!!! It was almost like being at an Irish Wedding party!!! It had a great Irish feel to it, especially being in Liverpool.......a real party atmosphere with everyone dancing jumping and singing.

Caroline did really well being so heavily pregnant, each of the girls sang solo at one point. Sharon looked amazing, very feminine and wearing a stunning dress. Andrea wore a red dress and was barefoot the whole night!!! Jim was there too, I can't remember what he was wearing.........it was interesting because this concert was a year to the day after Shania's Hyde Park concert, and again when "Breathless" was performed I was hearing a Mutt Lange song one year after listening to Mutt Lange songs.....!!! I think this guy must be pretty good.......

All in all a wonderful night!!! I recommend ANYONE to see them. Roger, I hope they reschedule those dates for you, please don't hold it against them! I'm sure there was a reason for them cancelling. I really think you would love to see them. Trust me!!! The Corrs are such great musicians and it was just such a great party atmosphere.......my advice to anyone thinking about seeing them would be just GO!!!

Paul:)

[Paul]

I have only a couple of pics......as usual my pics turned out blurred!!! But I know some of you will want to see at least the two which came out.....

Paul:)

[captainCorr]

According the Ottaway Sun (?) the official reason is promoting commitments in Europe.... that seems to be the most logical reason....

The next is Angel and it's being released at the end of this month or next month.... and if they keep touring till September, they can't promote the song.... which is badly needed for the album's performance....

So we'll see....:( But I have no doubt they will definately come back next year, after Australasia....:)

[Paul]

It seems that The Corrs caused quite a stir last night......the Liverpool Echo gave them a magnificent 9/10 rating!!! They liked the way Andrea said that "Liverpool is not a sit-down city"!!!!!

Paul:)

[Roger]

As far as I know, no reasons given for rescheduling the Shania concerts either back then. Does that mean you are not listening to any Shania cds either? :p

It seems to me simple courtesy to people who have bought tickets to explain why a concert has been rescheduled or cancelled. Lots of people arrange holidays and make reservations for flights and accommodation based on having bought tickets (as you know Marika). If Shania did not explain why in your case, she should have. Of course I am still listening to Shania's CDs. In the first place, she did not reschedule any concert I had bought tickets for. In the second place, I already knew as you did the reason for the rescheduling. But she should have left word with her ticketseller as to the reason.

BTW Shania did cancel a scheduled Ottawa concert back in 1998. The day the Ottawa concert was announced, it made page 3 in the Ottawa Citizen complete with a huge picture. Two days later they cancelled but did explain that the Ottawa date was a mistake. I saw what had happened. They added a second Toronto date by cancelling the Ottawa one. But Shania's tour manager did grant an interview with the Citizen right after and promised Shania would return and play Ottawa. She did in March 1999. To make up for the earlier cancellation, she scheduled two concerts in a row.

Roger

[aFinn]

Oh, I agree that a reason should be given. But the other things you mentioned seem over-reacting, especially now in the light of your Shania concert story. That didn't keep you away from her music.
And I think it's weird you would not get upset if others would not be told about their cancellations/reschedulings, only if you yourself have been affected.
Just seems weird, that's all.

[Roger]

According the Ottaway Sun (?) the official reason is promoting commitments in Europe.... that seems to be the most logical reason....


This is an unsatisfactory explanation.

1) when tickets for a concert have already been sold, as was the case for the Ottawa concert, the ticketseller should be able to explain to those who had bought tickets. Ticketbuyers are most likely to ask them. An announcement in the paper may not be noticed. Today Ticketmaster Customer Relations had no information as to the reason for the cancellation.

2) for the ticket promotion explanation to sound likely, there has to be enough time for them to do this in Europe. Here is the Corrs concert schedule before and after Ottawa:

Aug. 28 - Boston
Aug. 30 - Toronto
Aug. 31 - London (now also cancelled)
Sept. 2 - Ottawa (now cancelled)
Sept. 3 - Montreal

It seems unlikely they would go back to Europe in the middle of a North American tour. Excluding days for travel there would only be one full day for promotion in Europe.
Give me a break! If this is their official explanation, it is not truthful.

Roger

Not weird. We knew all along the reason for the reschedulings in Europe. Ill health is a good reason to cancel or postpone. I did not know you had not been told the reason for the postponement.


Roger

[aFinn]

I have only a couple of pics......as usual my pics turned out blurred!!! But I know some of you will want to see at least the two which came out.....

[aFinn]

Not weird. We knew all along the reason for the reschedulings in Europe. Ill health is a good reason to cancel or postpone. I did not know you had not been told the reason for the postponement.


RogerNo, in light of your earlier Shania Ottawa cancellation story this strong reaction seems strange (I see an contradiction) to me, sorry for the confusion.

[Troll]

Thanks for the review and pics Paul

[aFinn]

[Paul]

Ah, thanks for the review, I also wish I could see them, my main wish would be to hear No Frontiers and see the drum duel I keep hearing about :D

I hope you do one day, its a really memorable show. The drum duel was fantastic!!! :D The tour programme is also pretty good, Mutt gets a mention in there too.

Paul:)

[aFinn]

I hope you do one day, its a really memorable show. The drum duel was fantastic!!! :D The tour programme is also pretty good, Mutt gets a mention in there too.

Paul:)Oh, what does it say about him?

[Paul]

"The Corrs have mastered the art of doing things that are sufficiently sweet and refreshing to garnish the sought-after plays from conservative programmers, while also being sufficiently distinctive and finely wrought as pieces of music, to stand well apart from the mass of what is deemed acceptable by radio programmers in general. It came as no surprise, then, when Breathless - written by Andrea with producer Mutt Lange, and which featured on the In Blue album - became the most played track on radio in the US in 2000."

Just part of the programme notes, not that much mentioned about Mutt really, but enough to get me excited!!! It's a nice programme, big and glossy full of stunning photos. Although not quite like the Shania UP! programme.

Paul:)

[aFinn]

Ah, thanks! :up:

This reminds me I forgot to ask you to get one program for me too :funny: I'm always late :uhh:

[Shannia]

Thanx for the pictures Paul. The Madrid concert will be only in two days. As far as I know the tickets aren´t sold out. :uhh: Very understandable thanks to the price... :rolleyes:

[Paul]

Hey Carolina you're most welcome!!!

Are you going to try and get tickets for the Madrid concert? I recommend seeing them very highly!!!

I can't believe how much they travelled this week, Paris, London, Liverpool and now Spain all in 4 days.

Paul:)

[Tupi]

i bought my tix today for the 11 october gig....still 90 days to go :D
the zenith gig last 10 july was more than awesome...words are not enough! :D

*excited!* :bounce:

[captainCorr]

Well.... all Canadian dates accept for Toronto & Vancouver are cancelled.... so they'll do one gig in Canadia, head to the US, and then head back to Canada for the last show before heading back to Europe....
They will be in the US after the last European date (Mallorca) on July 21st.... and are slated to perform @ the Today Show on July 23rd and doing other promowork in the US (/Canada).... they'll have to resume promoting in Europe after the NA leg....

[Shaniabomber99]

Any idea if they're coming back to Australia????

Carley

[captainCorr]

Any idea if they're coming back to Australia????

Carley

Definately! :up:

They'll be there early next year....;) :great:

Btw, did you know the Corrs were almost Australians? :p :D

(Gerry & Jean wanted to move to Australia before all of them were born, but didn't at the last minute....:p)

Now I'm still going to 3 so that equals with Shania! :great:

It's strange concerning the date though.... the one in Zurich, Switzerland was supposed to be on the 30th.... :confused:
So I don't know if it's cancelled or rescheduled.... omg.... my back account is going aaaall the way down! :eek: :cry:

But like Andrea sings in 'Confidence For Quiet'.... "I don't caaaare!" :p :great:

So you can see more dates will be announced....:)

[Tupi]

eek

i prefer them irish :D

[Tupi]

why did they cancel almost all canadian dates?

i wanna go to lyon too...or amnéville (i have no idea where this town is but well...:funny: )....gosh...:nervous:

[captainCorr]

No official reason(s) given....but probably due to a combination of low ticket sales and promotional commitments....
(low ticket sales isn't the case with most of the dates.... 2 of them were even sold-out!)

But they'll most likely be back next year....it's probably bad planning.... :rolleyes: :scowl:

LOL!! Lyon is far down! ;)
Btw, I recently checked were Amneville is, and that place is just below Luxemburg! :up: It's just above Metz.... (though it's a weird choice! lol) :)

I must say I have seen no promotion whatsoever about the Corrs now cancelled concert in Ottawa. Certainly, all National Arts Centre patrons will have heard about the concert through the NAC's regular updates but most of the NAC crowd are classical music buffs who would not go to see the Corrs. If you wanna sell tickets, you gotta let people know you are coming. Also the NAC is a very small venue, only about 2200 seats in Southam Hall. There are larger venues in this area they could have chosen and they were available.

Cancelling shows, especially when they have already sold tickets, is not a good way to impress the people who otherwise would have been the most likely people to go to another concert. It feels as though the Corrs have treated us with contempt when in fact it may have been simple incompetence. I probably won't bother going to see the Corrs if they do come back this way again. Their treatment of fans in this area, whether by design or incompetence, has been shabby.

Since this is their 1st NA tour, it's only logical to start at the small venues.... And what you just said is also the problem.... there has been no promotion whatsoever (not until late this month), so that was already a problem....
They should've promoted the gigs earlier or do them later.... In some cities sales went extremely well, but in a few others they were mediocre....

So I think they'll be back next year.... First they'll be promoting the album and gigs for 2 weeks in the US(/Canada), then proceed to perform, then head back to Europe to have a little break, after that start the European Leg of the World Tour (without Caroline), a little break, then head to Asia & Australia and after that.... we don't know....
Jim said they're planning 'to go 2 all 4 corners in the world'.... so perhaps South America & North America will be included too....:) We'll see....

I agree....it's not good for them and it's not good for the that bought tickets.... I think they over or underestimated the sales in NA and are going to do a different approach...but John should really watch out now.... He has been very good for/with them since the start, but it seems that's not the case anymore.... :rolleyes: :scowl:

yeah, and i checked where it was too, cuz i didnt know, and it's closer to paris than lyon...maybe i'll be going to this one, im really addicted!

wanna join mathias? :p

Hey Carolina you're most welcome!!!

Are you going to try and get tickets for the Madrid concert? I recommend seeing them very highly!!!

I can't believe how much they travelled this week, Paris, London, Liverpool and now Spain all in 4 days.

Paul:)
Yep and Portugal as well:)
I have been searching all ways to go to the concert but the Madrid concert hasn´t been prepared as good as in the other spanish cities. Here is more expensive and not in the center of Madrid so I won´t have the chance to go this time to their concert:(
I cannot complain I went last week to other 2 concerts! :funny:

Jajaja but one of them was totally crap :scowl::down: :p I didn´t want to go but a friend forced me :funny: The other one was great! :up::D

[Paul]

Oh I thought you meant they were both Corrs concerts..........sorry I'm stupid sometimes....... :rolleyes:

So which concert was the bad one?

Paul:)

[captainCorr]

So which concert was the bad one?

Paul:)

Both....:p :funny:

[Steve F]

Yes, that would be me!! I think if they went so far as to sell tickets, they have an obligation to follow through and uphold their end of the bargain. As far as I am concerned, ill health is the only acceptable reason to cancel out. And we know it isn't that because the Toronto concert is still on.

Well, if I don't hear a persuasive reason for the cancellation, I have bought my last Corrs CD and certainly won't be tempted by another Corrs concert in the future.

Way to break into a new market, guys!!


Roger

Hi Roger! I know how disappointed you are. You sounded very happy about this when we talked about it. I take it they won't do something for you. I just bought and watched their DVD from 1998, "Live At The Royal Albert Hall." It was good. I see they are coming to Boston too. Better luck next time. Remember it could have been worse, it could have been Shania which for me would be very depressing if that happened.

[Shannia]

Both....:p :funny:
No! :p :funny:
Paul, the Avril Lavigne one:down:
Dido was great. She´s georgeus, very friendly and she has an amazing voice. She makes new versions of her songs in the concert and she sounds damn good:D

[captainCorr]

Carolina....perhaps some news....
I've just heard that there are reports in the spanish press about a gig in Bilbao in October or November.... perhaps you can look into it?

I have a feeling they'll add a few more dates after the UK Tour....:)

Wow really? I haven´t heard anything here yet. That would be great:) Although I could not go either to Bilbao:funny:
Well I have a little picture of Andrea yesterday in Santiago de Compostela:)
There were more than 25.000 people watching The Corrs:D They started saying Buenas noches Santiago= (Good Night Santiago:p) at 23.00 pm. The review says that the most special moment of all the night was when The Corrs sang Borrowed Heaven and said that the song was dedicated to her mother died last year because of a cancer :cry:

[captainCorr]

Well, it appears to be true! :great:

According to THIS (http://www.eitb.com/castellano/noticias/noticia.asp?id=187096) Spanish article, The Corrs will play at the new Exhibition Centre in Bilbao on November 13th. Apparently it's the first event ever at that venue! :great:

What an honour! :D :D

So it looks like more dates will be announced! Stay tuned....;)
I hope for a Madrid one Caroline! ;) And of corrs one in Finland, one in Sweden & one in Norway! :p :D

[Shannia]

Wow great news:great::D Aww Maider won´t be able to go either.. But I am sure there will be a lot of people at that concert:)I´m not sure if they will come to Madrid... :uhh: It´s weird that they haven´t add any date in Barcelona :huh:

They did seem to do only shows in the summer over there....:)
(Though they did perform in Barcelona in November 1998! ;) :D)

[Shannia]

:funny: I know but I still think that it´s strange that they even don´t go there for a summer gig.

[captainCorr]

Unexpected but another (new) French date has been announced! :D

It's on October 9 in Douai.... @ the Gayant Expo.
Thought they were going to start in Paris... seems they won't....:)

Btw, I looked up where Douai is and it's just over the Belgium border with France.... a bit further than Lille....:)

[Shannia]

The new gig in Cournon D'Auvergne, France, isn't in October but in November....kinda strange 'coz the rest of the French dates are in October.... But it's understandable, otherwise they'll be playing 4 shows in a row....

I think there won't be anymore new dates before Douai.... Caroline is expecting her baby late September/early October so it's probably the family wants to be there....:)

More dates as they're announced....

[captainCorr]

A bit of news about some of the cancelled Canadian dates....

According to Chart Attack Canada, the Halifax and St. John's shows were canceled because of poor ticket sales....
(Though it's still a bit strange because the Ontario show was sold out.... :rolleyes: :confused: )

Here's part of the article:

--------------------------------------
Atlantic Buzz: Some Shows Nixed, Other Shows Kick
Friday July 23, 2004 @ 02:00 PM
By: ChartAttack.com Staff

Toronto isn't the only place that suffers from cancelled shows. With the recent announcement of the Toronto Bluesfest's demise, along with the death of Lollapalooza, three big East Coast shows have suffered a similar fate. The Corrs, who were scheduled to perform in Halifax and St. John's, NL on September 5 and 8, have backed out due to poor ticket sales, and the Rock The Island festival, scheduled for August 1 in Alexandra, PEI has also been nixed for the same reason. Unfortunately, this means that Train, Fountains Of Wayne, Five For Fighting and Default won't be dining on fine island potatoes this year.
--------------------------------------

Unfortunately bad/low ticket sales is a trend in North America at the moment.... :uhh: :scowl: And unfortunately The Corrs are affected too (couldn't be at a worser time! :().... :sad:

Oh well, perhaps they'll return later on their world tour....:)

[aFinn]

They are now adding Europe dates? :D So the Finland gig for December will be announced soon then :]

*gotta dream!* :p

[Tupi]

cournon in november? hummm...sounds interesting...

oh god! why dont they play closer to paris! :cry:

[captainCorr]

cournon in november? hummm...sounds interesting...

oh god! why dont they play closer to paris! :cry:

LOL! What's the point....;)
The deal is to do some gigs spread out over a country (France)....what's the use to have 2 gigs in different city's that are next to eachother? :p

It's pretty spread out at the moment, so the fans in France don't have to travel long distances....:)
Perhaps if you help to do some promoting Paris will sold out and they'll do another one there....:supwink: :p :up:

[aFinn]

So, where is the Finland gig? :cry:

[captainCorr]

So, where is the Finland gig? :cry:
Still on paper....:p :( ;)

[Shaniabomber99]

Will the Aussie dates be announed soon? Markiza maybe an idea if you or the mods pin this...

Glad to see The Corrs corner is back :)

More dates as they're announced....:)

[Roger]

Well, I took my two pairs of tickets for the Corrs Ottawa concert back to Ticketmaster and got my refund today. I asked the girls behind the counter why most of the Canadian dates had been cancelled and they said they were told because they conflict with the European tour. This is obviously untrue if you look at their itinerary. I spoke with a TM rep on the phone and they said that the decision to cancel the Canadian dates came from the Corrs themselves and it had nothing to do with ticket sales because sales had been good. So the Corrs decided to pull the plug but did not have the decency to give us a reason.

When Keith Urban cancelled a series of Canadian dates last year, he gave a reason (voice problems) and promised to return. He did six months later. And they honoured our original tickets.

Result: I will buy more of Keith's CDs and go to more of his concerts. I will be damned if I will do the same for the Corrs.


Roger

[captainCorr]

Well.... you could say the same for Shania.... also no reason givin'.... and I'm sure it came from The Corrs themselves, and I certainly don't approve of the cancellations though I can see where they're coming from....

Angel (/the 2nd single) was planned for a later release date, but it was hanged to late August/early September.... And in order for them to promote the song (and everyone knows promotion is very important) they just had to cancel some dates....and some of those didn't sell very well either....

And I agree they really need to figure out their priorities.I know cancelling gigs like that is unacceptable, but they can't drop their established succes for one that isn't being very much succesful at the moment.... The Corrs have been away from the other side of the world for 2 long and it's been 4 months since the latest & first single, far too late! :scowl:
If they continued in NA, they're chance for BH becoming a 'bestseller' would be nihil. They really need to focus on their established 'fanbase' and go and 'explore' new ones later when they have enough time for it (again, bad planning).... it's hard, but that's just how it's got to be.

But rest assured.... they will be back. And that's from their mouth's too.
They'll definately back early next year. Either before the Australasian leg, or after. And don't cloud your judgement because of something like this. You didn't do the same with Shania. And I know you're a bigger fan of hers, but that doesn't matter in this case. If you really want to know why, wait till they come back and ask John Hughes himself. And believe me.... don't trust what the venue itself says, because it's different each time. Frankly, they don't know the real reasons either....

It's really a shame you're thinking this way.... it's not as if you're flying all the way from the UK....It's not as you have spent thousands of dollars on plane tickets + hotel costs. It's not as if it's life threatening.... Fans from Europe were flying in to Canada to attend a few gigs.... well, they 'just' accepted it and went to another one.... Of course they didn't approve of it, but what else can you.....

Anyway. it's your choice of course, but I think you're taking this a bit too far.... (I mean; what would the people of the Memphis gig say? Remember that one?) But good you had a refund.... now you can broaden your Keith Urban collection.... :smirk:

Well, we all know why Shania cancelled some of her European concerts and she did go back later to make up for it. We don't know why the Corrs cancelled and we don't know if they will be back. So if they renege without explanation why do they deserve loyalty? Not explaining shows a contempt for the fans who bought tickets. The onus is on them to explain not on me to try to find out.

I did not follow the Memphis thing so can't comment.

True....but if you believe their word why they were cancelled you surely have to believe their word that they'll be back....
And yeah.... we knew....why? Because we're her fans.... but what about the non-fans? Or the ones who are a big fan of one artist and a bit of another....like yours?

And you surely know about the Memphis show.... wasn't Shania supposed to give one late November '03? Wasn't that one mysteriously rescheduled & cancelled? Was there any reason given? No....
(if you count 'due to her tv special' as a reason)

Every artists/management have their flaws and problems. And till last month, The Corrs have NEVER cancelled gigs.... never.... not even with a good explanation. If you read the interviews with them back in late 2000/early 2001, when Andrea got an ear-infection. Well that was their very first time they had to reschedule shows, so this is the first time they had to cancel concerts. And I'm sure you'll get your official explanation in the near future....

Well, if they do at some point explain why they cancelled a show for which they had already sold tickets, I will feel a lot better about them. But if they don't, it doesn't much matter to me. I won't miss them.


Roger

[captainCorr]

Well, after a quiet period 2 more dates have been announced! :D
This time again in France! ;)

The Corrs will give 1 concert in Toulouse (Nov 22) & Marseille(Nov 24) .... :great: And tickets are on-sale NOW! :)

(I already have a feeling Marika's gonna come in here and ask: where are the Scandinavian dates? :rolleyes: :p)

There seems to be some space between the 13th and 22nd so perhaps more dates will be announced or perhaps they'll have a little break inbetween those dates (and if it's the latter more dates will probably take place after these new ones)....:)

So that makes the current itinerary:

From the Ischgl site (http://is0.info/portal/content/2001/index.php?act=CONTENT&site=10201&cssFile=winter.css&lang=SPA&type=1):

the corrs - live in ischgl!

The beautiful and stylish ski resort of Ischgl, in the Austrian Tirol, is set to launch an exciting 2004-2005 ski season with the announcement that top band The Corrs will perform the winter opening concert on Saturday 27 November. The resort has a gloriously long five month season, thanks to its high altitude of 1,377metres, and a great reputation for big name concerts to open and close the winter activities. Ischgl has many devoted fans, who return year after year, but is also attracting new skiers and boarders keen to share the excitement on and off the slopes. This winter marks the 75th anniversary of the Ischgl Tourist Office and also the Ischgl Ski School.

The Corrs

The first day of skiing for the 04-05 season will end with a spectacular open air concert by The Corrs. This chart-topping group are currently on tour in North America and the Ischgl venue will round off a European tour by the four members of the Corr family - Andrea, Sharon, Caroline and Jim – who are from Dundalk, Southern Ireland. Their latest single, Angel , from the successful album Borrowed Heaven jumped straight into the top 20 of the UK charts in the first week of release. The Corrs have sold 30 million records around the world and it is an endorsement of Ischgls status that they are performing the opening concert. "We are thrilled to make this announcement," said Ischgls Tourist Director, Andreas Steibl. "This will be a really great concert to start another great season for Ischgl." The Corrs join a roll call of top names to have performed in Ischgl – recent stars include Ronan Keating, Enrique Iglesias, Peter Gabriel, Amici Forever, The Sugababes, Sting, Rod Stewart and Sir Elton John.

So it seems the gig in Ischgl will be their last one for the European Leg....
(but I have to say, it's really a beautiful place to end it! :D)

From the Official Site (http://www.thecorrswebsite.com/news/sept04/sept23.htm):

http://www.thecorrswebsite.com/images/news/sept04/myslovitz.gif

The next leg of the European tour kicks off in early October and opening for the band from the 11th until November 8th will be Myslovitz. One of the most successful bands in Poland, their melodic, melancholic, guitar orientated music is complemented by the distinctive voice of their lead vocalist. Their live performances, polished through years of constant touring, has led to them being compared by journalists to the likes of Radiohead, Placebo, Travis and Coldplay.

Touring since 2002 they have dazzled audiences with their performances at the best European summer festivals, as well as successfully opening for Simple Minds on their European Tours. This summer they continued to promote their album, “Korova Milky Bar”, and now is your chance to see them live. For more info check out their English and Polish website: www.myslovitz.pl.

*sigh* :cry: :sad: :scowl: *sigh*

[captainCorr]

There's still room between France and Portugal and they could still do some shows in December (if there's any request for it)....:)

And maybe they'll do another leg in Europe at the end of the tour.... some kind of homecoming....:) But we'll see....
