The Spice Girls may have initially included Sydney as one of their world tour pitstops, but hopes that they’ll actually fulfill the obligation are fading fast. Late last year they cancelled their announced Sydney date to allow for more performances in London and now an inside source at their record company, EMI Music, has let slip that they don’t expect the Spice Girls to make it to Australia.
“Let’s face it, scheduling a massive one-off concert like this in a country so far away was never going to happen,” they said, citing logistic and financial reasons as to why Ginger, Sporty, Posh, Baby and Scary wouldn’t make it down under. “Unless they tour the whole country, the Spice Girls won’t be stopping off in Australia.”
They suggested the original false announcement was a clever tactic to increase album sales before Christmas.
With the cancellation of the original date, and the fact they continue to book new dates in Europe and America, this source could be on to something.
