Cambodia Redux

I wonder if Mr. Cohen is considering a show in Cambodia after the previous plans went down the tubes.

Perhaps a gig in Hong or Bangkok?

Re: Next tour?

Don't they owe a show in Cambodia? I think we'd take one in Hong Kong just the same.

Re: 2011 Tour ?

Yes, after the fiasco with the cancelled concert in Cambodia, I think a concert in Hong Kong would be a great idea.

After all, it's likely the same market and Hong Kong actually has the quality venue and equipment for such a show.

Re: Phnom Penh Concert Statement

"postponement"? Let's be honest. "Cancellation" would be the more appropriate word here. After all, if ticket sales were slow the first time round, do you really think you are going to be able to sell tickets a second time round? If somehow Mr. Cohen does make it to Phnom Penh, I...

Re: Announcement of the Nov 27 concert in Phnom Penh

Word has it that it was the local promoter that dropped the ball.

Mekong Sessions made promises which could not be kept. In the end Mr. Cohen's management had to make the difficult decision to pull the plug.

I guess we'll just have to hope there is another tour in 2011/2012.

Re: Announcement of the Nov 27 concert in Phnom Penh

For those of us who are still heading to Phnom Penh, perhaps we should get together for a drink and a Cohen-less evening!

Re: Announcement of the Nov 27 concert in Phnom Penh

I share the major disappointment of the cancelled show. If there was more notice, I would have flow to Australia/NZ to catch the tour. If ticket sales were an issue, they should have simply moved it to a smaller venue, stripped down the performance. I tend to agree that it was a political issue wher...

Re: Announcement of the Nov 27 concert in Phnom Penh

Yes, I think in the back of our minds this was a worry for all of us. It stings to have taken time off work and bought a flight out to Phnom Penh for the show, and even worse that we will probably never know who "dropped the ball". I would discount any promises of rescheduling the show. So...

Re: Announcement of the Nov 27 concert in Phnom Penh

The concert has been "postponed". Considering that the tickets are being refunded, they should be upfront about it and simply announce that the show has been cancelled. My opinion was that they could not sell enough tickets. For the past several weeks, I would check the AEG online site and...
