Firstly, I don't know if this means anything for an LP tour in Oz (here's hoping) but I had to weigh in here and say I heard an interview this morning on my local rock radio station with Tim from Rise Against (who are currently in Australia supporting the Foo Fighters) & he said they'd be back in Australia in a couple of months for another tour.
Don't know if that fits in with everything else, but we'll see I guess!!!
