Promoter Michael Chugg has turned into somewhat of a hero in Northern Queensland after announcing he has included Northern Queensland on Elton John's forthcoming Australian tour for the very first time.
Chugg announced the Elton show for the remote city of Townsville last week, but the locals half expected that it was a practical joke.To confirm the show, Chugg flew to Townsville and made the trek into town in a ute.
"North Queensland, Elton is locked in, confirmed and is coming here to Dairy Farmers Stadium on December 4" Chugg said from Townsville.
"This is a once in a lifetime to chance for the North, and for me," he laughed. "If it doesn't sell out I'm in big trouble."
Tickets for Elton John's Townsville concert will go on sale on August 27th.
Gold tickets are $245.00 and silver tickets $140.00.
