“It has been way too long, and I couldn’t be happier that LIVE is finally returning to Australia for the first time in 5 years,” Live’s Ed Kowalczyk commented in a statement. “The band and the show is so good and so strong, and the fans who have seen it so far have been extremely happy! So, it was most definitely time to come and share it with our mates down under.
