Australia Tour

[Mick]

When did you play somewhere in the N.T. or in W.A.-cities other than Perth for the last time?

[Crusty]

when will u play in Warrnambool? haha i know, it's shit, but it's where i live. :cool:

Warrnambool looks like a nice place to spend one's holidays. But how does it feel to grow up there?

Hey Crusty,
Alchemist played Portland in about 95 - A metal fest with Damaged just after they lost Jamie. that’s pretty close to you eh, unfortunately we don’t have any plans for anywhere near there in September - I guess Adelaide or Melbourne would be closest.

So what about those poor guys in NT, etc.? Have they ever been able to see you live?

Mick,
about your question regarding shows in NT and WA. We played in Perth city and then a bit up the Coast - but still Perth really. The distances are so huge and the audience just isn't there for us outside of the big city's. We have not been to Darwin as it's so far we could probably go to Japan cheaper. Australia is just so big with so little in between. You have to broadly popular to tour every city in Australia – like Powderfinger or something.

I see, living in Germany I just cannot comprehend the empty vastness of your country. Still, I've always been fascinated by it. I'd love to experience it one day! It's too bad my two little kids would be bored to death by this type of holiday ... but one day I'll be there! Until then I'll have the "Australian touch" of your music that makes me feel as if I were there.

It's ok, Melbourne ain't too far too travel to see Alchemist.
I think the last time I saw u play was in Wagga, 'Duke of Kent'. :)

Good to see you fellas getting in some last minute practice before heading OS. But just a word of warning-leave comments like 'last show before...' off of promotional materials. Still makes for a collectors item i spose.
