Though it's true that people's seeming lack of enthusiasm for Tubular Bells 2003 is probably not likely to have been much of a source of encouragement for Mike, I don't personally think that it alone would stop him from going ahead with a premiere concert - if attitudes of that kind were influencing his decisions that much, he'd not have recorded the album, as they've been going since before he started.
The decision would mostly be based on whether Mike wanted to do it (and for a while at least, he did) and whether someone was going to provide the money for it. One condition of that money being provided would certainly be based on what public opinions of the album were likely to be (specifically how many people would want to come and hear it played live), but a few negative opinions on the internet wouldn't be enough to sway that on their own.
What would be enough would be the public at large being rather lukewarm on the idea of the whole thing...
I'd actually imagine that there's more than one reason for it all, even if Mike only gives one.
