Title: Is Brian touring Australia nationally?
Post by: The Trader on June 16, 2006, 06:19:31 PM
Well as we know, Brians doing the spleandour in the grass festival next month (which i wont be able to attend :-[ ),

but is there any word on a national tour of Australia, or have any other dates been announced around then?

They mentioned a national tour on Triple J a few weeks ago, and i would be crushed if that wasjust a lie!

doesn't look like any other dates - I think there was talk of a Sydney show but that doesn't look like happening. Very strange arrangement!!

Hardly your normal BW event -

THE HEALING ELEMENT will also offer a wide range of healing therapies, from Byron and beyond, including; kinesiology, naturopathy, reflexology, tarot & psychic readings, chakra clearing, massage, reiki, crystal & shamanic healing, Hawaiian massage, astrology and more.

and another bit might be interesting -

The TENT OF MIRACLES crew return with their The Church of Two Hands and a Chicken. For the uninitiated, they are a carnival of freaks that will perform a host of rituals including same-sex weddings, divorces, exorcisms, faith healings, whippings and other stuff.

could be the spot for the Beach Boys Reunion!!

Nice.  I'm a little closer, California, but I consider myself Australian in spirit.  It is the country that may or may not have had "fun fun fun" conceived within it's formidable borders, after all.

The "debate" was memorialized in the brief film that played before Brian's shows in the summer of '99...I remember Brian and Mike together, must have been taped in maybe '97 or '98 - and Brian says Fun Fun Fun was written in Australia, and Mike says "No, we wrote that in Salt Lake" - then Brian says "No Mike, I think your mind is getting senile!" - which drew great laughter and applause from those of us in the Calvin Theater...
