17th October
We have just had confirmation from the Australian
promoter that the Rewind show (Oct 30th ) has officially
been cancelled. The promoter has issued a press release saying that everyone
can get their money back from the box office where they purchased their
tickets.
This does not affect any of the other Australian Go West shows, as
they are being organised by our usual Australian Promoters and infact they are
trying to see if they can now put in a show together in Sydney to replace
Rewind.I will keep you posted on that
and when there is news I will let you know.
Richard has also completed his Cambodia Trek , everything went well, Monsoon conditions included. You can still sponsor him by clicking here
