Last time they were in Melbourne, they played 3 shows. This time there is only one announced. I notice though that they have a week between the Melbourne and Adelaide gigs, which would indicate to me that they will probably put on an extra show or two in Melbs depending on demand. They could also fly into Sydney early if they had to and play one or two more shows there.

So....Australia gets lots more gigs than the UK. Looks to me like the band have eschewed all the 'grimy' locations of the world for sunnier, more relaxing gig dates in warm climates...South of france and Italy, Australia...the list goes on.

This is a strange tour. I don't get why they wouldn't play Scotland and Ireland. Not only that, but if this is the end of the tour, then why would they blow off the entire Southern and Midwest part of the US? Italy is getting 5 shows...go figure.

Just checked out the European Dates.. Guess I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed that I land somewhere near a gig at some point..

Trying to get our shit together to make it too a Tool gig over there but it's proving a pain in the ass & a mass of cash..
