I just wanted to thank you all for giving me such huge support throughout
the year, from Witches of Eastwick to the Hyde Park Benny and Bjorn concert, to
the Concert Hall in Dublin, the release of the Chess in Concert dvd and all the
other concerts and events I've done this year, having your support is always so
important and has always touched me. We have an exciting year ahead which will
start off with the imminent launch of my new website and the tour of Chicago....
after that - you'll always be the first to know...
wishing you a safe, peaceful and joyous Christmas - love 2 love Marti
Sacred Flame and official website update!
Many of you will have received "event reminders" from Ticketmaster regarding
Sacred Flame on 28th December. The show HAS been postponed until sometime next
year. These reminders were set up automatically when tickets were purchased and
they should be ignored. The show's producer is working hard to arrange a date
that is suitable for everyone involved, that can be accommodated at the O2. I
know that everyone is waiting for the new date and I'm sure that we will be told
as soon as it has been settled.
Marti's official website should be launched soon! I have been told that it
is looking great and I'm sure that it will be worth the wait!
"Winter Across Her Brow" - the beautiful new song on
Marti Pellow Official
is taken from the acoustic album "King Of Yesterday". Release details are as yet
unknown.
People that already have tickets should contact the
O2 directly or
Ticketmaster. Tickets can be carried forward to the rescheduled date or
refunds will be given.
