Different strokes for different folks.

The whole "only has one song" is demonstrably a load of nonsense that's regurgitated for many artists by people outside of the fan base. She wouldn't be going this long if she had one good song.

Ozzy diagnosed with Parkinsons been some sh!t yesr for him had tickets for him but had to get them refunded. Do you actually think he will honour his commitment and perform cause his health isnt great and Sharon is just milking every last cent out of him. Ill only buy a ticket once i see hes done some shows of the tour saw a pic of him recording his new album from a chair cause he couldnt stand how on earth is he going to perform for 2 hours at his age abd health is beyond me

Well like Sharon said, it's not exactly a death sentence, it's manageable with good days & bad days, also given the crazy life Ozzy has lived, it's going to take more than a Parkinson's diagnosis to slow him down.

But she does only have one truly good song. Everything else doesn't come close to that ONE song.

Compare her to Pink who broke out around the same time. The difference in the amount of recognizable hits between the two is massive.

Keys doesn't command a 107 e ticket. Id be surprised if the gig sells out.

Vicar St the 17th too.

That's a great booking for St Luke's.

Must say I don't get the fuss myself - great voice, music a little drab - but it should sell out sharp, which is always the concern for small bookers like the lads in St Luke's.

Sounds like the right setting for it too.

Much better, I will be going to a good few gigs.
The National, Diana Ross, Cat Stevens, Crowded House, Tom Jones and probably Dido.
MCD targeting the kiddie market for Independent Park, I've no interest in anything there.
