You guys downunder sure are lucky!

[Petie]

Awesome. The Palace is literally at the end of my street - the band can all crash at my place *LOL*

[Frankie]

anyone thinking of going to multiple shows?

i'm gonna go to the Adelaide show (obviously), probably do Melbourne and MAYBE Sydney....

Vai roughly comes down every 3-4 years lately - you gotta make the most of it!!

[cerealk]

Wooo Hooo!!

I expect I will be trying to get to most of the shows

Anybody in Adelaide, Sydney or Brisbane want to put me up for the night?

Cheers

Simon

[cerealk]

I suggest some Aussie Jemsiter beer get togethers before each gig

I emailed the guy who runs this site to tell him about the tour (I've done some work for this zine before) and he said he'd already got the press release. Looks like he didn't read it too closely though - Steve's last Australian tour was in 2000, not 1997. He does list a ticket on-sale date, but I would wait for Mikey's confirmation.

hey since hes below the equator anyway, itd be pretty cool if he makes south america again... i know ill go every date he plays here

[Chris Brooks]

Should be a great tour for Australia. I hope the industry watches and sees that we could do with more support for instrumental music. The artists are here plugging away when they're ready.

I spoke to Brett earlier this evening and he is really looking forward to the tour!!

[Petie]

Awesome! Will this be a 'Trouser' set or a Brett solo set? Eh, we can just ask him on Sunday.

[cerealk]

He isnt playing on Sunday Peter and it will be Brett solo stuff I'm sure
