ayeah, glad that you alive!

[SomeKindOfStranger]

ironic...I have a friend from Australia who is a massive fan but never seen them live, so she decides to fly over to London especially for the Roundhouse gig.
Was talking to the travel agent the day before this announcement.....
Now she gets to them twice, but thats an expensive pair of tickets!

yesssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[splintered thing]

I have ordered my tickets!! woo hoo!

[ozjohn1]

Tickets for Sydney booked, never thought this would happen.

[splintered thing]

Now have Bris-Vegas and Melbourne !! I am literally lost for words, I am so happy! THANK YOU ANDREW!

[splintered thing]

Tickets for Sydney booked, never thought this would happen.

So surely you don't need to be jealous anymore?

[ozjohn1]

Ooops, should change that really....

[andromeda]

Just bought my ticket. And the countdown begins!

[Blitzkrieg]

I too have my ticket, very excited!

[andromeda]

I wonder what the chances of sideshows are..

[bilderberg]

I wonder what the chances of sideshows are..

the only other artist not tied to Soundwave (Alice Cooper) just announced sideshows. Fingers crossed.

[andromeda]

Apparently Soundwave is cancelled!

EDIT: Yep, it's official they cancelled it. http://www.soundwavefestival.com/node/119415

[splintered thing]

Officially?? The soundwave site & Sisters sites are still up and confirming dates as a go.... details please if you have them!

The link I just posted before (http://www.soundwavefestival.com/node/119415) is their only official statement they've made so far apart from the promoter talking on the radio.

f**king ridiculous. They cancelled because the 2nd headliner who they hadn't even announced yet pulled out! Apparently many of the bands are still touring here. If the sisters aren't one of those bands i'm going to very upset

[splintered thing]

Holy cow, that has pretty much just wrecked my day/week/month/year.....

Surely they could just play the hifi in Melbourne or something....

[andromeda]

I hope so. Otherwise we're all going to have to fly to New Zealand to see them.

[bearskin]

I hope so. Otherwise we're all going to have to fly to New Zealand to see them.

Hoping that, if they cancel Aus, the girls will still come to NZ..isn't that a wee bit unlikely though - for one show? Like you said, maybe they can just organise a whole bunch of gigs anyway...

[Being645]

So all of the Australian festival dates are cancelled ... ... oh nooo .... ...

That's really bad news.

Hhm, for Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne they are still organising some other events to be announced during the next few days ...

So perhaps at least in these places, people will be able to see The Sisters ... ...

[SomeKindOfStranger]

just had a tweet reply from chris catalyst: The promoter cancelled the festival this morning. We're looking at next year.

Yes. Powerstation now saying Auckland gig cancelled.

Might not be that bad news, if they are looking at indoor club gigs for next year instead. Because I don't think they intend to try it with Soundwave again...

[splintered thing]

Seriously chaps - for Melbourne get yourselves to the hifi bar or even the Palace Theatre..... or anything really. If I had a bigger backyard.....please make it down here...
