Boom! Just like that, your day has changed for the better. But not just this day, I’m talking about the days 28-31 January, 2010, which sees God’s favourite TV show coming to Cape Town. That’s right, my sweet smelling friends, Jeremy Clarkson and the crew are stopping by as part of their Top Gear Live World Tour!
Read on to find out how to win tickets from 2oceansvibe..
Check it out:
Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May officially launched this year’s Top Gear Live World Tour, on Friday 25th September, from London’s Royal Geographical Society (RGS) in true Phileas Fogg-style; suspended below a hot air balloon.
In preparation for this year’s tour, which will play to over 340,000 Top Gear fans, the Top Gear Live crew have been hard at it knocking about new ideas, welding things together they don’t understand and nodding to each other a lot. The result? A completely new show featuring the world’s fastest cars pushed to their mechanical limits, acrobats laying their lives on the line and some middle aged men falling over…. and catching fire a bit.
Fans on four continents can expect an edge- of –their- seats experience with flaming rally cars, extreme underground street racers and cars which change colour in the blink of an eye. Other sequences will feature the infamous Stig who will be leading our troop of international stunt drivers via a mix of hand gestures, sonic pulses and Morse code, showing audiences the ultimate in precision driving.
That’s pretty rad.
Luckily there is nothing else on in Cape Town the weekend 28 to 31 January, 2010!
Can you imagine, The Stig will be in Cape Town… My God!
The live nature of the shows will give fans the unique opportunity to interact with some Top Gear favourites. The Cool Wall will feature so that fans can have their voices heard (and then possibly ignored) and audiences will be pitted head to head for the Top Gear lap. The presenters will receive a number of challenges during the show and this tour’s burning question is “can our intrepid presenters really solve the serious issue of traffic cone deployment?”
The size of the tour makes for some interesting statistics. This year, it will play to over 340,000 fans on four continents; and 135 trucks, 3 ships, 1 freight plane and 94 cars, and 150 sets of tyres will be required to keep this high-octane show on the road. The audience will witness an eye-popping 92,160 sq feet of fireballs and have their senses assaulted by decibel levels that reach 104d.
The all new spectacular show will play to arena venues in each host city. Each leg will consist of 10 shows presented by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, with South Africa playing host for the first time to a combination of Jeremy and James for the Johannesburg show and Jeremy and Richard for the Cape Town show.
