Harvey Goldsmith gets early Xmas present
Harvey Goldsmith has been chosen to promote
the Live 8 concerts in the UK and Europe. It
must be something of a surprise to many in the
industry, given that in 1999 Goldsmith went
bankrupt owing the Pet Shop Boys, whose UK
tour he was promoting, several hundred grand.
Goldsmith transferred profitable tours he was
promoting with Sting and Jools Holland to a
different company. UK laws allow this, but
it left the Pet Shop Boys bearing the brunt
of an enormous loss Goldsmith had made that
year with the Eclipse Festival.
So Live 8 provides Goldsmith with the perfect
opportunity to rebuild his reputation...
making him the first benefactor of the
Live 8 concerts.
(FYI: An anagram of Harvey Goldsmith is
High Stardom Levy.)
