PHIL COLLINS - Not Dead Yet Live - Australia and New Zealand 2019
-
Wow! For a guy who didn't want to tour anymore he is sure getting around a lot. Good for him, very happy for Phil.
-
I am happy for him and I am also happy for myself!!! I will be there.
-
Great news for those folks....
Where next after here do you think he will perform? If at all...... but hopefully he will keep it up -
just where?
-
Japan perhaps, and South East Asia. He could then relabel his tour "Not dead yet - but everywhere live"
-
I've got my ticket. The VIP package is expensive but I'm in the 5th row. 'It's a chance I've got to take'.....because I very much doubt he will come here again.
-
How much do tickets cost down under?
There is a whole range of prices from about $172.00 to $993.00. The median price for normal reserved seating is $300.

Curious what Phil will play down under. Do you expect setlist changes? I remember there was a rule that oversea artists had to include Australian artists in their live band? is that still the case?

I have never, EVER, heard of such a rule. I have seen a lot of concerts over the years. I would be curious to see where you got that information. Are you sure you don't mean as a support act? Even so, the majority of shows I have seen don't have a support, or they don't have to be Australian. As for what he will play, I imagine it will be the same as he has played elsewhere. I will be in the fifth row at the first Sydney show in just under a fortnight.

My understanding is any touring musician must demonstrate "net employment benefit to the Australian entertainment industry" when they perform there. That's why you had a string section joining Genesis on stage, for example, for a couple of songs during the Invisible Touch tour.

Well, thank you for that. I honestly hadn't heard of it.

However, This says precisely nothing about employing Australian musicians. You have to provide details of any Australians you intend to employ, but it isn't compulsory:
The appropriate union may need to be provided with a variety of documents which may include:Contracts for engagements and/or Letter of Support;
Your itinerary;
A copy of any qualifications you have to undertake the position;
Details of Australian support artists (and other employed Australians);
Details of health insurance;
Details of worker’s compensation cover; and
Evidence that overseas members will receive remuneration and be afforded working terms and conditions including accommodation, travel and transport whilst in Australia.So the phrase 'net employment benefit to the Australian entertainment industry' strikes me as somewhat misleading.
-
Yes, that was fun. Two nights away!

I'm counting down the hours. What amazes me is that after this show I will have seen three of the classic Genesis lineup. I don't think that's too bad for someone who was only really a 'casual' fan until a couple of years ago.
