more from same (The Goodies) |
Another Goodies live show has been added in Perth. It will be held on Thursday, 17 November at 7:00pm. Tickets for this show will go on sale this coming Friday (9 Sept) from 08 9484 1133 and the His Majesty's Theatre box office (www.bocsticketing.com.au). There will be a handful of preferential seating for club members at this show; the code word is visible to fan club members who are logged into the website.
I believe there are still some tickets available for the two Perth shows already on sale (to be held on Friday, 18 Nov at 7:00pm & 9:30pm), although seats for the 7:00pm show in particular are very limited.
Shows in additional cities are due to be announced either later today or tomorrow. I'll pass along the news as soon as I get it.

| The Goodies tour is returning to Australia! |
more from same (The Goodies) |
Here's some exciting news - the Goodies live stage show is returning to Australia! To quote from the press release, "The Goodies Still Alive On Stage stars UK comic legends Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden. Bill Oddie will feature in the show from London via the wonders of video. The Goodies Still Alive On Stage returns in a new form to continue the tour that may never end, hopefully satisfying demands from every Australian town and city for a Goodies visit."
To answer some of your anticipated questions:
Q: Which cities will the tour be visiting? When do tickets go on sale? A: Tickets for Perth will go on sale this coming Monday, 5 September, at 8:30am. The show date is Friday, 18 Nov at 7:00pm. Tickets can be purchased through 08 9484 1133 or the box office of His Majesty's Theatre Perth (www.bocsticketing.com.au).
Further dates and cities to be confirmed.
Q: Will there be ticket pre-sales for club members? A: While the producers were unable to set-up ticket pre-sales they have arranged to offer a limited amount of PREFERENTIAL SEATING for the club. In Perth, this will be available for the Fri, 18 November 7:00pm show. When you order your tickets (from 08 9484 1133 or the box office) you must mention the code word. The code word has been emailed to the goodies-l mailing list; it is also available to registered users of the website. If you are logged in you will find the code word in a box on the left side of the page.
Please note that the preferential seats are available on a first come, first served basis. As there is only a VERY LIMITED number of these seats I advise you to book early for the best chance of getting them.
Q: Why is Bill only participating by video? A: Despite his best efforts, Bill wasn't able to reschedule all his filming commitments in order to join Tim and Graeme live in Australia (as fan club members will know, Bill has a heavy travel & filming schedule for his BBC nature shows).
Q: When will we hear about additional show dates and cities? A: Again, further dates are being confirmed; the club has been promised updates as soon as they are available. While I cannot guarantee this, I believe we will have further information by the end of next week.

Updates will be posted as they become available.
