I have a floor ticket to Orlando on the next leg. Going to wait and see if any set list changes coming in 2015. If not, I'll most likely sell the ticket. Even though the band seemed to be playing better than ever I simply don't feel it will be worth the trek to see the exact same show with all the exact speeches and acoustic set again. This will be a first for me since 1982 if I only see them once this tour.
Count yourself lucky that you have seen them at all! In February 2004 I think they were in Sydney, well I was 10 years old and didn't know anything about them. In late 2009 again I wasn't a fan at 16 years old.

In 2013 I had four tickets as a birthday present from Dad.

Then John had to go and get cancer, the bastard!

Now they are delaying Australia to the very end of their tour as always because we are like the poor cousin of Canada to them, like some decaying long-fawned over 51st state of the USA.

John Howard would have married your ex President George W. Bush if he wasn't so stridently anti-gay. Howard who lauded himself as such a great believer in families, who believe in middle-class welfare and cutting boat people adrift, who believed in demonising gay men and women by specifically passing amendments to put in the Marriage Act a requirement for the two consenting adults to be opposite sexes.

Howard who honestly believed that the typographical error that led Bush and him to invade Iraq instead of IraN was an excuse for that horrible flawed War on Terror that looks to have achieved a little but not much with this ISIL death cult (our PM Tony Abbott's words, not my words) flourishing in Sydney and in Cairns.

Sorry. A bit too political there.
