looks like they are actually being realistic this time around. 

[FunkyMonkey]

Thanks estebanf.  Yeah, those are smaller venues.

[cfcsfc]

Awesome!
Look forward to seeing them in a smaller venue- I saw BLS at the Enmore and it was great, I like the venue.

[Dead N' Bloated]

Dont think I'll go to this. Maybe. But last time i saw them the sound was shit and the performance was lacking.
Anyone know the prices yet?

Easiest way would be train I think...get off at Southern Cross (which used to be called Spencer St if your're a local) station then you walk up Spencer St towards Dudley St.

Its an old school venue...should be awesome for VR....

[Grouse]

Thank god they're playing smaller venues this time round although I still think this is too big...I'd rather see them doing club shows I'm not a fan of those 2.000+ concerts...

[williambailey]

Hey does anyone know if there's going to be any kind of meet and greet in Australia? I'd KILL for that!!

its a waste of money. You shouldnt have to spend money to meet someone. I did it for Alice Cooper a few years ago and I will never do it again. Even tho Alice was great i have partied with bands since then and realised you shouldnt have to spend money on it.


 

[monkeychow]

^ Yeah...while I agree with you in principle...for me its just easier this way...like lots of people would want to party with VR while they are here, and sometimes its just simplier for fans to pay a spot of cash to take the headache out of trying to orginise a way to bump into them!

yeah I understand that.

Is there anything you get with the meet N Greets for vr? With Alice we got a tshirt and Alice Cooper money a backstage tour and 1st 2 rows for seats. I think that made it alot more enjoyable.
