Live Nation Australia & New Zealand: “The response has been quite incredible”

Live Nation Australia & New Zealand has posted a comment on the official Per Gessle Facebook page. Here is what they say:

This is all they have announced at present however the response has been quite incredible. Once they hear how things are going we’re hoping they’ll consider visiting other cities – we’d certainly like to take it further than the one show planned at the moment!

Cheers from the gig in Tienen, Belgium. 4-day festival, Rox was headlining Day 4! We had a blast! Marie in top shape, great great crowd, beautiful evening and setting! Thanx for showing up, love to come back here.

At the airport in Brussels w/ Magnus, Chris & wonderful Helena. We just realized that after those 12000 ppl showing up last night in Tienen we have played in front of almost half a million ppl since Feb! Wow! Cheers.
