Just saw on Facebook (On the post about Jimmy Barnes & Joe) that Joe would be coming to Australia in September of this year...
I checked the tour dates on the main website and couldn't see any Aussie venue pencilled in for that month. Anyone know what dates and venues are on the agenda?
That is fantastic news!! PLEASE keep us posted about details. I had almost front row seats the last time he performed at the Palais. AWESOME show!!
Would love to hear Jimmy Barnes do a couple of songs with Joe. I was hoping he would guest at the last concert and perform Too much ain't enough love I would also like to hear them play Lazy

I had front row seats in Adelaide a couple of years back. Best show ever!
Joe did play with Ian Moss in Sydney a few years back. Would be great if he did something with Jimmy as well, or BOTH of them. It will be like a 1/2 of Cold Chisel reunion... 
Still no tour dates posted on the site? Not sure if the tour is a happening thing?
You know what the airlines here are like - if you don't book at least 6 months before you fly, you'll have to get a second mortgage and sell the car and a kidney. I usually like to book a short family holiday etc. around catching Joe here in Australia... Unless by some miracle he is coming to Darwin as a venue... 
Just opened my Hotmail account and the first message I see is from Joe announcing his forthcoming tour of Australia/New Zealand. HOORAY!! Both acoustic and electric performances. YYEEAAAHHHH!!!!!
Presales open tomorrow at 10:00am.
Auckland 12th Sept
Sydney 14th Sept
Adelaide 17th Sept
Melbourne 19th Sept
Perth 21st Sept
No Brisbane show

From Australia heading to Germany: 25th Sept Mannheim ( SAP Arena). Respect. Welcome, Joe. Will see you there from the 3th row...
I was online to the ticket office way before 10:00am. As expected, I could not make any purchases until 10:00am sharp, which I did. Even then, the best seats I could get were back in rowJ (middle). Looks like Joe is getting more popular here - last time I did that, at least I got second row.
While I am very excited in going to see Joe, I would have expected to been much closer to the front.
If that was pre-sale it is actually no indication of what tickets are sold, just what they have released as pre-sale.

Trev - The last show I attended in Adelaide, I actually rang the booking centre direct, and the girl there got me row 1 front and centre for the 4 of us. Might be better than going through their online system.
Sadly, situation is that I won't be able to fly across the country again to catch Joe on this Oz tour. I strongly encourage other Aussie fans to do so. I might catch him again in a few years if the cards line up...
Thanks for the advice -a bit late though as I have already purchased the tickets. I will keep it in mind next time.
Still I am very excited to see Joe play some of his acoustic stuff.
So much for presales...............just got online and booked through the general sales and got a seat 6 rows from the front.
Jumped on that and now I have a spare ticket!!!
I scored front row seats for the upcoming Adelaide concert through the presales, very happy with that....Had second row seats 2 years ago in Adelaide was an awesome concert then hope for another awesome experience in September.
Well, Congratulations are in order! 
Movin' ON UP!

"I got tickets for the Sydney show this morning. Row P I believe. I think I was around there for his last Sydney show and the seats were fine with me. I was 2nd row for Jeff Beck last month and it was honestly too loud next to the speakers. I cant wait to see Joe again.

"I am, like others from around Brisbane, baffled as to why Brisbane is getting skipped
I mean he is playing in all the major cities, Perth is ages away from everywhere else in Aus, yet no Brisbane

Perth lead to the connection back to Europe from the west, the exit. Baffled by Brisbane or anywhere else on the planet of Joe Bonamassa missing out? Perhaps marketing data supports some reasoning or possible "explanation." If so or whether not so, there's only faith relating to a next time.

ps-(I honestly do not recall, so am not implying Brisbane) where was that backline snafu in Australia once?
