Really iffy about pre-sales. Got Pearl Jam pre-sales back in 2006 at Rod Laver and was right up the top against the back wall. Got Neil Young tix this year at Perf Arena and they were on the side up towards the back. Really don't want shite tix but don't want to miss out.
 
Pre-sales are generally good for GA.

They dish up poor seats, usually.

Unless you have access to guaranteed good seats in a pre-sale (through knowing promoter or corporate) then best to wait for general sale for seats, from my experience.

I jumped on in a Muse pre-sale (through the Muse site rather than the promoter though) and got amazing seats. Front row near the stage but not too side on, lower deck. Was wrapt.

Just putting it out there. If this midnight announcement turns out to be My Chemical Romance or someone else insignificant, there's a legitimate chance Frontier Touring will be firebombed.

Haha. NZ press have already revealed it's Bruce. SMH have also. It's him. I'm only up to confirm the ticket dates and times or I won't sleep.
 
March 2014 dates added in Australia & New Zealand!

Bruce and the E Street Band have announced they are headed back to Australia and New Zealand in 2014 for their most extensive tour of the area to date. The 2014 tour includes the first New Zealand show in more than a decade and their first-ever visit to Perth and Adelaide, kicking off at Perth Arena on February 7.​
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band brought the Wrecking Ball tour to Australia earlier this year on their first tour Down Under in more than a decade, performing three hour plus shows in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and at Victoria’s iconic Hanging Rock.​
Said Springsteen’s long-time manager and producer, Jon Landau, “Our shows in Australia earlier this year were among the very best and most satisfying of our whole 128 show tour. The crowds were tremendous, the fans as warm, friendly, and welcoming as we could ever hope for, and the quality of the performances, as virtually every reviewer commented, were spectacularly high.​
“From the moment we finished the second show at Hanging Rock on March 31, we have been working on a plan to return next year. Among other things, we wanted to expand the number of places we play to include the Hunter Valley, Perth and Adelaide, with a trip to Auckland, as well. Those venues are in addition to the new dates in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. In other words, this will be our most far reaching tour of Australasia ever – and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are planning to make it their finest.”​
Frontier Touring is also thrilled to announce that Australian music legends, Hunters & Collectors will be reforming to be special guests at Springsteen and the E Street Band at the Melbourne AAMI Stadium concert.​
Additional special guest at the Melbourne and Hunter Valley shows will be Australia’s favorite rock & roll soul man Dan Sultan. Continuing the musical tour de force that they established on this year’s Wrecking Ball tour, Jimmy Barnes will be special guest for the Auckland Mt Smart Show.​

So realisitically how many extra shows for each city will they do? Gotta allow for equipment moving time

Perth 8th maybe 9th. How much stuff has to be driven across Nullarbor? Fly it over

Adelaide 12th

Melbourne 16th

Sydney 20th and 24th

Brisbane 27th

Auckland gig is the cheapest, GA $197.
