Thursday, 19 November 2009, 19:00 - 22:00 Hits : 120
After more than 3000 concerts worldwide we in South Africa finally get another chance to celebrate the the gifted Chris de Burgh live . He will be playing in Johannesburg 14 and 15 November 2009, 17 Nov in Durban, 19 Nov in  Cape Town.
He launched his debut album 'Far Behond These Castle Walls' in 1975 but only became really popular in South Africa after his second album 'Spanish Train and other Stories'. Songs like 'Just a Poor Boy', 'Patricia the Stripper' and 'Spanish Train' were played as far away as the Border.
1986 saw the release of ‘Into The Light', Chris' most successful record to that date and sold in excess of 10million copies world wide, it also featured the single ‘The Lady In Red' which was no. 1 in 50 countries and is still to date one of the most played records on the planet.
He describes his latest album 'Footsteps' as 'Inside this record you will find some of the songs that I have always loved to sing and that inspired me to become the performer and the songwriter I am today. Recorded in the studio with orchestra, band or just a guitar they represent the footsteps that I took on a musical journey that started as a dream and has gone further than I could ever of imagined'.
Anybody who has ever seen the Irish Maestro live should already have their tickets but remember 'He who hesitates is lost'.
Don't miss this one.
