I know many US game shows..ie Name that Tune and some new shows like Young Rock with the Rock is being filmed in Australia as they have seemed to have gotten ahead of the virus. Should Duran tour this year late summer early Fall there and New Zeland? Serves 2 purposes IMO... 1). They would be able to release a new single..and possibly get some tour dates Down Under as they have not played there in a while..I know touring Australia can be very expensive as U2 took forever to go there and hit cities...but still a valid option with ongoing Covid... 2). With Covid numbers and variants increasing back up again in places where they haven't gotten ahead of the virus--I still think many of the UK dates and other shows Duran is in will be cancelled. I hope I am wrong but at least touring Australia with the new album and we can hear a few songs and maybe a new video would be AWESOME. I threw this out to Katy...does anyone know if she ever answers anyone back? I have asked her questions many times on various social media but crickets..... news.yahoo.com/festivals-2021-ones-still-going-015106065.html

We’ve had international comedians through and currently Crowded House are touring NZ. A local band Six60 embarked on a stadium tour and are about to do a concert at Eden Park, where I’m sure they’re sell 60,000 odd tickets. DD wouldn’t shift those stadium numbers though , unless on a package tour. I just can’t see them doing the two weeks quarantine. They haven’t bothered to visit here since the RCM days so I can’t see them doing it now, even though I’d love it, obviously.

Plus another argument against is that there’s a limited amount of space in quarantine. Bit rough on Kiwis trying to get home to lose places to DD.

I’m (jealously) watching the updates on the Crowded House tour from afar. They are one of the few bands I still haven’t had a chance to watch in live in concert that I would regret not having been able to see.

The concert sold out where I am too quickly! They’re playing a mixture of theatres and arenas, the sort of venues DD would play. I quite like their two new tunes as well.
