TOM JONES IN HONG KONG
Tom Jones fans in Hong Kong will have an opportunity to see and
listen to the world-renowned singer at a giant open-air concert to be held
at the Government Stadium next month.
The "Tom Jones in Hong Kong" show, to be staged jointly by the
Urban Council and the Fee Lun Radio Service (T.W.), will take place on
Sunday (February 25) at 8.30 p.m.
The two-hour performance is being organised because of the
great success of several similar musical shows held in previous years.
Performing with the singer will be his 40-piece band.
A spokesman for the Urban Services Department said: "A total
of 32,000 tickets, ranging in price from $10 to $200 each, will be on sale,
and we are expecting a full house this time."
He added that a sum of at least $20,000 from the proceeds of the
show would be donated to the Community Chest.
Note to Editors:
A press conference for the show will be held at the Banquet Suite, Section 2, first
floor, Excelsior Hotel, Causeway Bay, tomorrow
(Friday) at 3 p.n.
