Matt Goss Fails To Sell-Out his London Palladium Show.

 Matt Goss Fails To Sell-Out his London Palladium Show. 


Editor Stephen Hill 6th April 2024

In the late 1980s, the name Matt Goss elicited preteen girls. However, the once-celebrated singer, who has sold over 17 million albums and 10 million singles in collaboration with his brother Luke and best friend Craig Logan, is now facing challenges in filling seats for his performance at the London Palladium this evening.      

Matt Goss has returned to his hometown of London on his "Hits and More Tour ." 
This event marks the twelfth show of his tour, which has witnessed notably low attendance figures at previous performances.  
The attendance for tonight's concert is reportedly better than that of earlier shows, primarily due to the concentration of Matt's fan base in the London area. Nevertheless, he has still been unable to achieve a sellout show even in his hometown.  So far the singer has only managed to sell around 6,294 tickets in total for his 12 performances.

Fans were able to acquire tickets from seat filler websites for as little as £15, indicating difficulties for promoters in filling the venue.  A source at LW Theatres has confirmed that the concert has not sold out, with the promoters placing over a thousand tickets on the seat filler site Central Tickets.  





Despite these challenges, Matt's dedicated fan base has expressed enjoyment of the concert, which featured swing arrangements of Bros hits and various cover songs.  
At the age of 56, the artist continues to encounter difficulties in securing a record label deal and has partnered with the boutique record brand "So Let's Talk." This label specializes in representing artists who are unable to secure contracts with major record companies.

 However, concerns have been raised regarding the credibility of the label's claims, particularly in relation to its representation of artists such as the current lineup of East 17, which has not experienced notable success since the departures of Tony Mortimer and Brian Harvey, leaving only one original member.  
Most recently, Matt Goss posted on his Instagram account that his new single had been played over 15 million times on TikTok. 
After engaging with both the platform and the record label, it appears that the singer has been somewhat mislead by the label and  his new manager Stephen Endleman.

It's clear from our investigation that his new manager is well known for over hyping his Z list acts in hope their post may gain attention.

Fans of the singer also question why his long time friend and Manager Rob Ferguson is no longer representing the singer.

  1. The show wasn't bad, and for £15 you can't expect it to be brilliant.

  3. I am fan of Matt's and also work for LW theatres. I can confirm the show was not sold-out as claimed by Matt's team. The venue sold around 97% of tickets with the promoters selling tickets through central tickets. To be far it was an ok show.
