SpikeMinoda Posted November 18, 2010 Author Posted November 18, 2010 but the 25th is not a monday.........not my fault I just copied it from LP.com^^ but it's fixed now XDDDD Quote
Spin Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 Wow, cutting it close in terms of announcements, the show's in less than a month. Congrats to Canberra though. Quote
troub1eboy Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 (edited) well another aussie date but still no New Zealand? whats going on? Are new zealand fans being rejected or something? Edited November 18, 2010 by troub1eboy Quote
annare Posted November 18, 2010 Posted November 18, 2010 You people say this announcement is very close to the date? Madrid show wasn't even announced in LP.com and we found they were going to play a full show the very same day... Quote
lp_faint43 Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 well another aussie date but still no New Zealand? whats going on? Are new zealand fans being rejected or something? i know! this is very sad how could they ignore us? Quote
troub1eboy Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 i have heard rumors of a show but nothings being said Quote
maxstar Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 I happy for all Australians but I believe they wouldn't forget to visit Europe again in countries like Russia, Czech Republic or Poland Quote
JZLP-Benningstrong Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 too many shows in one country... is this a record? didnt knew that people were crazy for LP in australia... Quote
danielhj Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 too many shows in one country... is this a record? didnt knew that people were crazy for LP in australia... If there was a record for most consecutive dates in one country excluding the United States then it would be a record of 9 for Australia. But the previous record of 7 would also of been held by Australia Quote
Pez Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 too many shows in one country... is this a record? didnt knew that people were crazy for LP in australia... US hasss to have more. I think the only states and territories that dont have an LP show in them are Tasmania and Northern Territory. Quote
arbiter Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 too many shows in one country... is this a record? didnt knew that people were crazy for LP in australia... If you think about it, Australia is almost as big as the the United States. So of course it would have more shows. It is a record. The only problem i see is how close to the show they're announcing it. I usually need two months in advance to plan for a concert. A good thing i'm not in Australia. Quote
JZLP-Benningstrong Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Well, the US is their hometown so im not counting it didnt knew that Australia had the old record, 7 shows? in one country that's crazy... i thought that Germany had more concerts lol Quote
JozM Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Linkin Park rarely play in Australia so they might as well make the most of it. It may seem like a lot of shows but it is really just a show (or two) in pretty much each state. Quote
jessiexo Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 I think the biggest tour of Canada is 3 shows... Quote
hahninator Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 They should play more shows in Canada and Mexico. Maybe a return to South America for more in 2011, or some in South Africa. Other than that, LP does pretty well in hitting a lot of different countries. Congrats to Australia. I'm sure they don't add shows for the hell of it...this seems like the work of the LP promoter who probably told the band there was a lot of demand for them and wanted to see if they could add another show. That's usually what happens with the second night in London, second night in Sydney and what happened in Dortmund. I think they might add New Zealand after Canberra because I don't see them playing more than 9 shows in Australia lol. Maybe 2 in Auckland for 11 total to wrap it up. But dang they sure are announcing them close to the show! Quote
kurtis912 Posted December 4, 2010 Posted December 4, 2010 Cannot wait until the Canberra show!! Been trying to promote it like crazy! Does LPLive need help with setlists, etc? Quote
mikeatron85 Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 this is the only aussie show i won't be able to attend i've had to take some unpaid leave from work to do all of the others so i think if i asked for another day i could actually lose my job lol. bit concerned about how the ticket sales are going to go for this one though... newcastle was announced very late as well - and according to the mates i stayed with while in newcastle, it wasn't advertised very much either - hence the fact that the gig only ended up being probably 60-70% full. bit disappointing but the band played a show matched to any other - if they were disappointed with the attendance you most certainly would not have known Quote
kurtis912 Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Yeah 3 weeks is pushing it to try and sell out a show in Canberra in December. Canberra people are snobs at the best of time. Look at attendance at raiders games (noone goes). Then they win and people come along. Not sure of the capacity at AIS arena for this concert or sales so if anyone knows let me know. Also if LPST/LPU needs help getting posters around let me know ASAP!! Quote
