There is going to be a special on Channel Ten on July 27 on Shannon Up Close & Personal...includes songs, interviews with Dicko, duet withMarcia, some celebrities, his mum, Rochelle, his brothers and even his dog, Byron.
Just wondering how come it has not been mentioned here yet as they were advertising a competition for tickets to the taping last week on Video Hits.
All shannon lovers should get their VCRs ready and it seems later on, he will bring out a DVD too. YAY!

Idol star took pot for pain
By Darren Devlyn
July 03, 2004
AUSTRALIAN Idol runner-up Shannon Noll has revealed that he turned to marijuana to cope with the death of his father.
Noll said he used the drug to numb the pain of his dad's death three years ago.
But it was his concern for the relationship with his child that drove him to leave the drug behind.
Noll makes the personal revelations in a new TV documentary called Up Close, filmed this week. He talks frankly about the day of his father's death on their New South Wales farm, in Condobolin.
"I had a flat tyre on the farm. I went to a service station to get it fixed and that five or 10 minutes made me too late to help dad.
"I drove through the farm gate and two tanks were lying down, and dad was lying near them. In my heart of hearts I knew the reaper was coming to my family that day and dad put his hand up. That was the man he was, he said."
Noll also revealed the financial struggle that followed.
"Dad was pronounced dead at 9am and by 1pm the bank said it had frozen every account with his name on it."
The documentary will be screened on Channel 10 at the end of July.
Asked by host Ian Dixon about the rumour he was a regular at a brothel, Noll laughed and said: "I don't think I'd have to pay for it.
"I'm not being arrogant. I had a crack when I was a kid – it was a life experience and you can't die wondering about that stuff," he said.

That was the man he was, he said." How very sad. I didn't realise it was Shannon who found his dad that day. That image of his father must have been terrible to live with. Poor thing. You can understand him wanting to blot that out. That is sad. |

I was wondering the same. I mean good for Shannon...but isn't Guy the IDOL? Weird! I guess they will do it for Guy too when he is as out there doing as many concerts and appearances as Shannon is, don't you think? I think it's just this way because Shannon is so busy here right now. |

I think it's just this way because Shannon is so busy here right now. Hmmmm, dunno! Don't really see why that should be the test. It is not like Guy isn't out there working his tushy off!! They have him flyin everywhere...which is very grueling. So what if Shannon is busy here in OZ. Guy is the IDOL. I think the first Up Close and Personal should have been on Guy. ESPECIALLY because they have him away so much!! His fans here would have surely loved that!!! Would have been nice to see!! But as I said good for Shannon. Good luck to him!! |
