Rumour: Roxette to play in Toronto

by

The news seem to have been circulating for a few days now. It is however still not confirmed at this point.

We have received some messages from fans indicating that Roxette are to play at Molson Amphitheatre in Toronto on August 30, 2012. But again, as mentioned above, the date is still not confirmed and the information we could find was published on ticket reseller websites.

Per Gessle commented in Facebook some weeks ago that they would probably be in Canada end of August and in US in September (Articles no 1, no 2 and no 3).

We will post the official information and the link to the official ticket seller when we receive it from Live Nation. For now we can only recommend to wait a little bit and avoid super expensive reseller websites.

Per has revealed in several interviews so far that Roxette is to tour US, Canada and Mexico in August and September this year – with a final concert on the World Tour 2012 taking place in Mexico City. Now he adds more info on the Roxette’s Facebook page – tickets for North American gigs should be on sale in April. No details re locations are known at this point. The official press release about this leg of the tour has not been sent out to media yet.

Party crasher: review on AllMusic.com & Canadian release

by

We were informed that AllMusic.com published quite favourable review of Gessle “Party crasher”. Suprisingly, the album seems to be released in Canada on Sony BMG Music lable. We do not know if it is the same version as it was published in United Kingdom or is it something different.

Thanks to roxtexanet at TDR for information.
