Haha, thank you. Yeah, there were a lot of "erm, best not"s before I arrived at those two.

I didn't hear him say that, but as someone who lives there, I hope he did... 😁

Do you think he was referencing low ticket sales?

I put one on Twickets and there are lots available, expecting to lose the money to be honest.

Is it possible that they've toured Dreamworld so much, most casual people have now seen it, and so it's only hard-core fans attending now?

I could believe that. Even I'm on the fence about going again if they decide to bring it to North America after the condensed Unity Tour version.

Perhaps he meant they needed help singing if they fluffed Streets and had to break out the choir for two songs. :lol:

Did anyone get the stick of rock? I see there's one on eBay already for twenty quid.
For your own good, call me tonight.

It's time to move on from "Dreamworld" even though I'm sure it's been a nice cash cow. This vision has been going on now publicly for 5 years (https://www.petshopboys.co.uk/news/2019 ... es?archive). Next.
