Rumour - George Michael coming to town

Everyone gets excited when an act comes to town, it doesn't happen that often and when they come they usually only do one night. Apparently it happened at the beginning of the year when Elton John came and the same at the beginning of the summer when Bon Jovi played an open air concert in the grounds of the Emirates Palace.

A good mixture of people go to these concerts, people that aren't necessarily big fans but go because they happen so infrequently that they just want to go to a concert here.

A rumour I heard recently, which originated from a reliable source, is that to mark the end of this years National Day celebrations (2nd December), George Michael will be performing here. Nothings confirmed yet and there are also rumours that he will stop performing live soon anyway, but having seen him a couple of years ago at the NEC in Brum, if he does perform over here, then I'm there. And no doubt certain friends and family will make the effort and come over for it.

Other acts soon to come to the UAE, admittedly to Dubai, but still worth a trip nonetheless, are Queen, Kylie and Sting!
