Hear hear! I guess those superfans didn’t bother to read as far as “Hopefully there will be some other AU/NZ dates in the bigger cities toward the end of next year but we won’t know for sure for several months”!

I agree whole heartedly Gary.The ridiculous statements of the so called 'real' fans & how they should be rewarded for their loyalty??The Oils are still going more than 40 years after they started & it's nice to be amongst people who appreciate that...
Glad that sanity prevails on here 😀Cheers, Joanne.

I’m really pleased to see the positivity (or at least an absence of negativity) here on this list.
As soon as I saw the latest news from the band I also saw a whole bunch of corresponding gripes on Facebook whining about the things the Oils are not doing... Eg why no shows in my neck of the woods, etc, etc. Sheesh!
Just a couple of short years ago, a Midnight Oil wishlist probably looked like this:1. Reformation- done!2. World tour- done!3. Box set full of rarities- done!4. DVD, CD, Blu-ray of concert from world tour- done!5. New merchandise- done!6. Additional European tour (effectively providing confirmation that Midnight Oil remains a going concern)- done!
Hard to believe some people (on Facebook, not here) still seem to feel a sense of entitlement.
Though I will say this... if the band were to write new material and release a new album, the circumstances to allow that would probably look a lot like the published agenda for 2019. 😃
Cheers,Gary.

Subject: Re: [powderworks] Digest Number 2856I’m sure you’re right… warm ups, or after or both…And yes I think they’ve been pretty clear they’d want new music to play and not just a further greatest hits tour…The Festival run picks up a few areas they cancelled last year…
We live in hope of some Sydney and Newcastle action at my place!!

Nope.... but I see that they're going back on tour for europe / festivals in June & July.
Now that the market's been warmed up with the Domain / Armistice DVD (gosh...... and BluRay!), watch out for a new album for them to be touring on.... I'm betting that they'll be getting a few shows in OZ, juicing the market for a christmas album release...
Anyone keen to put a Darwin Stubbie on it?? 😝
