BOOOOOM!
Crazy time difference, we are slow to update and join in the fun here. It's pretty awesome news, I'm hoping they come to Perth and 2 sideshows (Mel and Syd) ... that's the dream at the moment I guess yeah?
SO EXCITED!
See you kids in July hopefully.

I'll be the first to admit that a festival show announcement didn't thrill me in the slightest. But the news that they're actually coming back to Oz is very exciting.

Wonder how they're going to arrange the side shows...... Before Splendour or after.?? Please after.!!! Not looking forward to the little Teeny Boppers at this festival...... that's if I get a ticket.!!! There's only 17,000 tickets this year AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.!!

Great interview with Billy here: www.vmusic.com.au/pages/main-menu/news/features/billy-corgan-q-aBilly hints about the idea still being the sideshows seem to be they'll play Oceania in FULL and then a bunch of 'classic SP'. So similar to the Adore tour in a way I guess, while I love the idea ... general Joe Public won't I think. Anyhoo, depending on a few things we'll hopefully make it over for at least one (maybe two) sideshows and be great like always for us all to get together, talk crap and catch up.

Do you think they'll announce the side shows before the Splendour tickets go on sale next week??

Jack White announced shows today, so maybe. Splendour go on sale next Friday, so that does leave most of the week for something to be announced. To be honest I'm not expecting anything until mid-May like SITG did last year with Pulp, The Hives etc.

I managed to snag some 3 day tickets!
Some site mentioned SP playing in New Zealand in early August so it looks like sideshows are definitely on the cards..

Looks like they're playing BIG venues. What about poor like Brisbane & Adelaide.?? Yeah Adelaide were never going to get another show going by 2010. I mean, the crowd i thought were really good back then, but the venue was scaled right down from 2008, and it wasn't near full as it was. I guess it was full or real fans, there just wasn't enough that cared - Great show none the less!

Hmm.. i'm quite worried they wont fill the entertainment centre. In 2007 they played the Hordern and it wasn't sold out, they then played a smaller venue in 2010 at Luna Park... I don't understand the decision to play such a big venue, don't want to see it half full.

I think it's because of the stage / light / Roger Waters The Wall type show thats going to be happening during the Oceania tour.!!
Should be pretty awesome.!! ;D
