well, hard to say exactly, but I'd wager that he was being sarcastic. Or maybe the crowd was a bit too tame for him and he was sick of seeing them sit or something?

Just checked the shows section of this site, and do not see any mentions of any shows in Melbourne. Do you still have your ticket stub by chance? We could use that show date for the archives. http://enterthesoulasylum.com/shows

Thanks!

Only mention of any Melbourne is one in Florida in June of 1988. I'm assuming he's referring to Melbourne, Australia (judging by the quote of "doing my best to get to the U.S. for a live show of there's..." )... but I don't have any archives of them playing anywhere near Oceania.

SA came out in '95 and played at 'The Palais' which is in St Kilda (Melbourne). I was working for a major record company at the time so I was able to score tickets and be at the meet and greet which was organised for after the show (SA never came).

I chatted a little with Dave once about Australia, as I've spent a lot of time there and I remember him saying they did a tour down there in the Mid 90's and even filmed a video there, think it was Promises Broken.

I noticed a while ago that the show archive dosent list any Australian shows, Would be great to somehow find out when and where they played down under and add them to the archive especially as it's yet another continent where the band have played!

ok, the search feature when I use it does not find this show.

Might it be the Oct 23rd show from 1995? And we have the wrong venue/city/country listed ??

The search feature is based on Microsoft's Bing, so it has the same gaps in content, unfortunately. :(

I have to take that statement back, while adding the setlists to the show archive, I('ve already found over 60 shows that weren't added); and one of those was a few Australia shows (in November of 1995), including in Melbourne. When I was looking at the "archives", I was referring to the one on the site (and just saw the Melbourne in Florida listed; I wasn't looking at the massive Word document I am compiling all the setlist information from.

I would have most likely found them sooner or later, but since the topic has been mentioned I already added them under November of 1995 in the shows section.
