I merged the two threads about these gigs. Sorry I was preoccupied with trying to buy tickets at the same time... Just a bit of background about gigs at the Opera House. SHO has done this thing recently where they pay artists a fortune (and trust me, that cost is passed on to the customer) to play Australian exclusive shows — people were furious when New Order and Stone Roses weren't allowed to play anywhere else in the country. So if you're in Melbourne/Brisbane or otherwise, do NOT hold out for a second announcement. SHO is also, obviously, an orchestral venue so I'd expect a set list and performance very heavy on strings (Rewired, Stevie etc). Hopefully there's a new track or two outside of what we've already heard and I'll report back on the Wednesday before possibly getting a video on Thursday. |

Hopefully they'll tour some more there at a later point for people who can't make this one. The National played the Opera House a few years ago and there was a stream on Youtube, maybe we'll get something like that? |

I just noticed that it says they're celebrating their 20th anniversary. I wonder if that's something official or the promoter just looked them up on Wikipedia and noticed the date.

But it was still streamed on the SOH Youtube channel, so my point stands. |

I don't understand all of your posts, so sorry if you've already talked about it, but, do you think they are going to make a tour this year ?

Oh great!! thank you Hope they'll go to France When people from such countries like France/Germany/Italy say smth like "Hope they'll come to France/Germany/Italy" makes me laugh a bit. I mean, this is so weird to me. Of course they will come to these ones. But will they go East to such little places like Belarus/Latvia/Lithuania/Ukraine? God knows, this is a lottery. They've been to these only once. No shows in Lithuania at all. No Russia in this list and you all know why. No offence melissa |
