No Justin Bieber for Durban!




Big Concerts?? More like small concerts. 
Thanks for nothing!
By now we are sure that everyone woke up to the news this morning that @JustinBieber is officially coming to South Africa in May 2013.  @BigConcerts released the tour dates over twitter this morning, yet once again our joy was short lived when we realised that Durban was left off the venues.  This is not new news to anyone, every time an International star is set to perform in South Africa Durban is left out.  @LadyGaga for instance only visited Cape Town and Johannesburg in her recent visit to South Africa.  After numerous attempts to get in touch with @BigConcerts over twitter, where we queried why Durban was not included we got no response.  Surprise surprise!  They would rather answer questions over why there were no tickets being sold for a meet and greet with the Biebs in the JHB and CPT concerts.  Our advice for the CPT and JHB concert goers is be grateful you are getting the concert; don’t complain over not getting a meet and greet.   We did however read in the newspapers this afternoon that the official statement from Big Concerts was that there is not a demand in Durban for the Biebs and that it would not be beneficial financially for them to include Durban.  Personally I am sure that there are thousands of Beliebers in Durban that would buy tickets for the show.
No matter how much we #Believe Durban wont get Justin!


Durbanites have to travel to either CPT or JHB if they want to attend one of the shows.  We have to pay for not only our tickets but then for transport to the city where the show is taking place as well as accommodation food etc.  Not to mention having to try take time off work to make one of the shows, and how are we to know in advance if we will get time off so that we can purchase the tickets before they are sold out.  So as you can see this works out to expensive for the average person.

Our advice to Big Concerts?  Why not share the concerts between Durban, Cape Town and Johannesburg.  If two of the cities get one act for e.g. CPT and JHB got Lady Gaga let Justin Bieber perform in CPT and DBN the next star can perform in DBN and JHB and so on.  If the Durbanites can travel why can’t the other cities!  And please don’t tell us anymore there is no demand in Durban, if you gave us half the chance I’m sure we would show you!

If you are a Belieber in Durban let us know how you feel being left out of the Bebier Fever!
