Then you can't come to Australia.

I believe you need to have arranged the hotel stay prior to being granted an entry visa

And now military (unarmed) is patrolling Sydney to check if positive tested people stay in home? Lol@dystopian. ;)

And the third vaccine shot is getting more and more traction.

People get offered money to get a vaccine. In the US companies are starting to demand people are getting a vaccine.

I mean, that's straight young adult dystopian story lines.

In fairness, the good folk of Sydney have proved that appealing to common sense is of no value

Junior question!

What ever happened to the fat chicks swimming video played live and why was it removed?

Was it a conscious decision to make the shows more PG?

Some content just gets retired. I can't even remember how long that one was around, but it was a while.
Also, some of the older content is so lo-res that it just doesn't look good on the current screens. Not sure if that was one of them.
For the most recent tour, the band commissioned Dominic Hailstone to make a bunch of new screens content. I'd imagine the old stuff just didn't fit in to the plan anymore.

That's certainly a bummer, but I don't even know who is in charge of that.

Thanks for the reply Junior, much appreciated. I dont know who is in charge either. Hopefully they make this right. Refunds aren't the answer....im stuck with NO tickets now instead of my VIP package.

Hey Junior! Got my tickets for Houston in Feb! I would love to buy you a beer if you have any inclination (or time). No pressure considering I’m some rando on a forum.

So, Junior, the boys are going back to Europe this tour, do they bring you over with them or do they have to use local guys? How many people do they usually bring with them overseas?

International traveling crew was probably around 10 of us back in the mid/late 90's and early 2000's, and around 20 in recent years.
Could be around 35 this next time.
We've got core crew who go everywhere who are from a number of countries.
Brits, Aussies, Canadians, and US.
The rest are often supplied with with lighting, video, and sound companies and then they travel with as long as we are in that region (examples: all of Europe, or all of the US/Canada.)
Then there are also local stagehands at each venue who work with our traveling crew for the day. Somewhere around 60, I think, in recent years.

Another trip planned to the large hardon collider?

Someone really needs to check on what they are actually doing there . . .

No shows in/near Geneva this time, unfortunately.
They are always up to something, though.

It does look like we will have some days off in good locations. Depending on the status of covid by then, we might still have to be on the cautious side about going out to see things, though.
