I was reading the Brisbane's Courier Mail yesterday that Premier Beattie has lifted the ban on concerts being performed at Suncorp Stadium. There was legislation preventing such things at the venue but it was scrapped in parliament yesterday to allow a benefit show for the Cyclone Larry Relief. The report said it now means any rock show could be held there!
Some of you may remember I went on a little crusade last year about this as I was (still am!) very opposed to using ANZ Stadium (sorry...QSAC).
This is our chance! What should we do? I think I will email Coppel and inform them. Changing venue isnt THAT big of a deal, it happens lots!
Thoughts...

It's been like that for a couple of weeks now; it's just a means of keeping the dates on the calendar in the event that there is an imminent announcement. As long as I'm being such a party pooper, has that announcement on the Ericsson Stadium website really changed at all? What it says now looks exactly like what it has said from the beginning; I don't believe that the wording has changed in any way. I honestly don't mean to be insensitive to the plight of the ill family member in question, but it's time to either s**t or get off the pot, as they say. How about just an announcement to officially say, "Hey, the dates are coming, it's just taking a little while to work everything out..." One simple message like that and everything is fine. I guess it's too easy and makes too much sense, so it will never happen!ChargedVT said:Have a look at the Ticketmaster website...
Do a search for the U2 concerts and they all have a date next to them! However its same date on all of them - November 30.
Got excited for a minute there

TampaDan said:Fresh and hot off the Rumour Grill, these tantalizing tenderloin tidbits from Zootopia:
"Telstra Dome is booked for Fri 10th and Sat 11th November. Yay! This is confirmed with the venue with the option of another show. Sydney looks to be the following weekend. Don't know about Brisvegas or Adelaide yet. According to my source (ooh, doesn't that make me sound much more important than I am..), an announcement will be made sooner rather than later."
When asked who the source was, the poster replied:
"Hi Bunny, without wanting to sound like a complete [deleted], I'm not allowed to say! Let me just say it is very reliable info. The boys have booked the Dome from the 10th to the 17th but have only confirmed the 10th and 11th as actual concert dates with the Dome staff. I guess they were just playing it safe and have probably booked the same amount of time at other venues. Better to be safe than sorry!"
But naturally, nothing about Auckland...
That's kind of a good question: if the Auckland shows are rescheduled for 1 and 2 December as one rumour has had it, then I may have to go to Melbourne instead, if ETS Tours will let me switch packages, of course. But if the Auckland shows are 3 and 4 November, then it's definitely going to be Auckland. Good thing it's not complicated or uncertain or anything like that...MsGiggles said:TampaDan - which shows are you attending down under???
Only too happy to replentish your IV bag with a fresh dosage of intravenous Rumour. I prefer to have mine directly injected into my brain stem for an even more intense and immediate rush!adrball said:nice. it is only the steady drip feed of rumour that is keeping me sane at the moment.
Hope they are able to confirm soon - if only so I can stop thinking about it so frequently
