OK, I'm really tired, having come back late last night (really, this morning) from seeing The Jesus and Mary Chain, so please bear with me, my bad grammar and probably a lot of incoherences.
Live Guide and
Undertheradar have released some additional info about the upcoming Australian/NZ leg of the DEP tour.
Ticket prices: $52.00 + BF for all Australian shows, and the NZ show is NZ$58.00 + BF. I have no idea when the Australian shows go on sale (I've been looking them up regularly myself), but apparently the NZ show is
on sale now from Undertheradar.
Support: Undertheradar have posted that
Akaname and Strangers will be the NZ support acts, while apparently (according to Live Guide) Coliseum will be supporting on the Aus dates. However, I'm not sure if this is correct because
Coliseum's MySpace account has a big list of U.S. dates at the exact same time.
All Ages: No info on this yet for the Aus dates, but Undertheradar have listed the NZ show as all ages. I'm assuming the Aus dates will be the same.
As soon as I found out more info on support, ticket sales and whether or not the shows will be all ages I'll update this post.
*Update 1*: Apparently Melbourne based
Five Star Prison Sell will be supporting DEP in Perth and Melbourne (though their MySpace account has only Perth listed). I don't know if this is an indication that FSPS will also be supporting DEP on the other Australian dates. Thanks to Fraudulent Wretch for the heads-up.
In other news, I'm still tired as hell. Late concerts and early morning neighbor renovations do not slice and dice nicely together.
*2nd Update*: OK, apparently all tickets for the Australian dates go on sale April 14th
according to Your Gigs. However, they also have Coliseum as the support act for every show. I have a feeling that the lineup will be Five Star Prison Sell + Coliseum + DEP for every show, meaning that Coliseum pulls out of their U.S. shows to tour with DEP (similar to what happened with Liars pulling out to support Radiohead). Then again, my guess is as good as yours. Tickets will probably be sold through Ticketek, though you'd better wait for some confirmation on that closer to April the 14th (not sure if there is going to be a pre-sale but doesn't seem likely).
*3rd (and final) Update*: Coliseum ARE going to be the support for the Australian dates, as confirmed by a
recent post made by the band on their MySpace account. Tickets sales are still going ahead for the 14th of April (no pre-sale that I'm aware of).
This listing (finally) came up on Ticketek for the Sydney show, confirming that it will be an ALL AGES show, but also that it's going to cost $75.10 + BF, which means live guide is wrong and I'm going to have to cough up some more money somehow.
