Anybody heard anything at all about a second show in Adelaide? I'm getting sick of listening to the roosters on Adelaide TripleM for any further tour news.
 
I'm now on the hunt for an extra GA for Adelaide. Got somebody else who would like to come for a cruise over to SA from Vic with us. Can anybody point me in the right direction or know of anybody who has one to offload?

Scope out the Facebook pages. Or just wait. More will drop.

Where are these added shows? Pretty surprised to be honest.

Given they jacked up the prices they might be waiting a week or two to let people get paid again before announcing them.

Perth sold out in seconds so was needed instantly.
Melbourne's stadium is huge so they wanted to start selling tickets for that one ASAP.

My theory at least.

Yeah I'm a bit worried. Don't like my chances of snagging a face value Brisbane ticket if its the only show.

Yeah, the whole thing feels like it has lost a bit of momentum. Admittedly it's only 3 days since the tickets went on sale to the public, but I'm also a little surprised that we haven't had any additional shows announced for Sydney, Adelaide or Brisbane. Still crossing my fingers for Adelaide.
 
B Reserve tickets for Brisbane were dropped last night, must have only been a few because it's back to 'allocation exhausted' again. Let's see some of those sweet, sweet GAs.

If there's not going to be a second show, at least tell us so I can buy Melbourne tickets instead. Any excuse to head back to Melbourne for a week like I did on the last tour would be great.

I've got a spare GA Front Zone ticket for Melbourne 1 if you need one.....or know of anybody that needs one. I was going to take my son in the pit on the Saturday, but scored really good seats for the Sunday as well. I can jump around on Saturday without worrying about him now.

I think they're hoping people travel to Melbourne for the stadium shows, hence why they put a second AAMI show immediately, which was weird. It's not selling well.

Wouldn;t surprise me if they put the second show on in Melbourne to get the diehards from other cities buying tickets for it, thinking there won't be added arena shows, then add them. They make their money twice.
 
I think its bad timing at the moment. A lot of people both in NRL and AFL dominated states might be holding off for footy finals and saving their monies.

They could hold off until January to add new shows given so many people had their Bruce fix less than 6 months ago. He has sold out 4 shows 2 x Perth, Hunter Valley and Auckland. He is close to selling out Adelaide, Melb 1, and Brisbane. So there is 7 shows that will sell out and there is 130,000 tickets sold and Sydney problem has sold 15,000 with 2,000 to go. How many has been sold for Melb 2??

So its not like it hasn't been a success so far. I'm sure if Adelaide went on sale half the tickets would go in an hour probably the same in Brisbane.

I think PJ is right about they want peoplr to travel to Melbourne for the 2nd show.

The other thing to consider is how many acts have come to Australia already this year. I remember when Brisbane shows were on the Courier Mail had a list of international acts that had played in Brisbane in 2013 and Bruce and 4 others had played in Brisbane over the previous 7 to 10 days. Bruce fans on the margin, might have already spent up big on concerts for 2013.
 
There'd be a strategic reason to not announce added shows early. Not sure what the strategy is though...!

Perhaps they want to give people more notice to prepare, rather than randomly put them on sale. That, or add them later in the year to run momentum in to the new year.
