September 23, 201212 yr I didn't say he had no support I said he's deluded about the amount of it. ................ He needs to be more ambitious than wanting to be a local celebrity! Why do you think *Joe* is deluded or that it's *him* that needs to be more ambitious. Promotion is not his job, it's down to the record-label and the management. His radio promotion focused on the north and north-east because those were the stations that invited him. He gets more bookings there because those are the places that invite him. His management have to keep plugging away and using all the means at their disposal to get him promotion in other parts of the country and the word is that they are doing this. I'm 100% certain that Joe does not want to be a local celebrity.

Nice that you think you know him so well :) I think (not know) Joe feels this way because that the impression he gives by loads of little things that he does. Anyway any promotion is good all I am questioning is the focus as its clear he doesn't have many fans up there. He was very lucky to get a second chance after the Syco debacle. Let's hope this doesn't go down the same path.
October 2, 201212 yr Joe is on QVC at 9am on 4 October. This is good as he did very well on there last year. Hopefully this is the start of a second wave of promo.
October 6, 201212 yr According to his twitter a new version of 'Rescue Us' will be going to radio, I hope he does a video for this, I really love the version on the deluxe album.
October 9, 201212 yr His new stuff sounds like he wants to be the new Gareth Gates, such a contrast to his old direction, now he's sounding dated instead of trying to be cool. He always just goes for what he thinks people want to hear. If the sales are good enough for another album he needs to get in with some better songwriters cos that's what it all boils down to at the end of the day, how good are the songs? Even one hit would do him so much good. I'm glad torresgirl is finally waking up regarding sales, they matter to his long term future and you cant cover that up with chart positions. And anyway... no.74 in the album chart is Olly Murs with an album that has been out for 45 weeks, Joe is no.75 after just 4!
October 23, 201212 yr Joe is appearing in the musical Tommy. It is a one off charity concert performance which takes place on 12 November. He will be playing the role of Tommy, with Daniel Boys as Captain Walker, David Hunter as Cousin Kevin and Zoe Birkett as The Acid Queen.
