Thanks to some comments left on THIS POST I found out some bad news. NAHIN!!!!!!!! Right now it looks like some of the Explosion 2009 tour dates have changed and I no longer see my fair city of Minneapolis listed as a stop. I hope the show gets rescheduled, and if not I hope I can get my money back for my tickets. Here’s the latest on the remaining tour dates from his site:
Sonu Niigaam, Sunidhi Chauhan, Hard Kaur live in Concert…With pleasure we announce the schedule for the tour.. Be there to witness and experience the biggest explosion of 2009..It will be one you will remember all your lives!!
7th August 2009 - Houston
8th August 2009 - San Fransisco/Oakland
9th August 2009 - Denver
15th August 2009 - Phoenix - but not confirmed til now
16th August 2009 - Los Angeles - NEW DATE
25th September 2009 - Boston - NEW DATE – but not confirmed til now
I went over to the Explosion 2009 tour site and personally asked him to come. It can’t hurt, right? Maybe this will help too:

UPDATE! as of 8/5/09
It’s now back on!


Hi I love your site. It is a really cool site and I have to say…love the Aamir Khan banner. Ghajini was a totally amazing movie and Aamir Khan is my favorite actor. Please check out my blog Bollywood Masti at http://desifilmimasti.blogspot.com/
BollywoodRocks-ji,
Hey! Thanks for stopping by and I checked your blog and am looking forward to a more thorough viewing of it. I LOVED Ghajini and was really surprised that I did. I put off seeing it thinking it may be too violent, but it really wasn’t. It was one of my very favorite new movies I’ve seen this year. If you like Amir, you must check out theBollywoodFan’s site.
I contacted the promoter

and he emailed back saying that they were in the process of trying to reschedule the Minneapolis show.
Thanks for the updates. I’m afraid if it gets rescheduled, it’ll be on too short notice for us to rearrange again and get down there. Grr … But will remain glued to new developments, just in case.
At least we didn’t put any money down, or reserve a hotel room yet. So I hope you don’t lose out at all.
Anarchivist-ji,
Here’s the latest from the promoter and it’s back on!
Yippeee!!! It’s back on!!
OK, OK, OK,
Make note of the REVISED DATE. Now it’s August 23rd (not the 22nd!)
This is what the promoter sent ticket holders:
Date Changed for Sonu Nigam show Due to LA show being canceled and postpone to Aug 16th,
NOW Mpls show is on Aug 23rd @ 7pm, MPLS Convention Center
Aug 23rd is the final date. No more changes- I hope everyone would be able to make it. I am just trying my best to accommodate everyone possible. I hope everyone understands that all of these changes are not my fault. I am just trying my best to host the show in our town. I really appreciate everyone’s support.
Sorry for inconvenience this may have caused to people who have all ready purchase the tickets.
All tickets are valid that have been purchase before and now.
