Posted July 14, 200619 yr ENTERTAINMENT CONCERT BY NEW 'KING OF POP' http://www.fans-supreme.de/coppermine/albums/userpics/10688/normal_Robbie_Dresden_028.jpg Robbie to play in Bangkok Robbie Williams, who has declared himself the new King of Pop, is bringing his record-breaking 'Close Encounters' world tour to Bangkok. He will play a concert on Nov 14 at Aktiv Square, Impact Muang Thong Thani. Organiser BEC-Tero believes it will be Thailand's biggest concert since Michael Jackson's 'Dangerous' tour in 1996. Williams has performed in Thailand before, in 2001, when 15,000 tickets sold out quickly. For the November date, the outdoor venue is expected to host around 30,000 revellers. This tour has put Williams into the Guinness Book of World Records, as over 1.6 million tickets were sold in one day. The organisers said the show will incorporate a six-storey high stage, 25 tonnes of pyrotechnics, lights and video walls, and a roof specially brought in from Australia, along with 400 crew members to handle the production. After the Bangkok show, Williams will perform in Singapore and finish off with four more shows in Australia. Beginning his career as a heart-throb in the band Take That, Williams embarked on a successful solo career in 1997. He is currently one of the highest grossing pop stars in the world. Tickets priced at 3,000, 1,800, 1,200 and 600 baht will go on sale on Wednesday at all Thaiticketmaster kiosks and at www.thaiticketmaster.com thanks to fansupreme for the picture Edited July 14, 200619 yr by Jackie
