If only I lived in Singapore/Jakarta/Brisbane/Sydney/Melbourne

Helloween are currently touring in Europe, promoting their latest album with Gamma Ray (my favourite band), who are also promoting their latest album.

I've just read news that Helloween are coming to this part of the world in February 2008 .. unfortunately, GR won't be... Black Majesty (an Aussie band who I quite like also) will be playing the Australian leg, not sure who is supporting the SE Asia part of the tour.

It's unfortunate cos if GR were coming, I'd spend the money to travel in an instant. I saw them in Sydney in December 2006 (thinking it was one of maybe a few chances that I'd ever get to see them), and it was the best show! The crowd, although a little small (but the venue was small too), were going nuts!

But I just can't bring myself to spending close to 1K to see Helloween (I personally think Andi Deris butchers the old classic Helloween tracks) and Black Majesty (or whatever support act in SE Asia). If I were living in those cities then I would go see them (as then it would only be $70 odd for tickets) ... Ah well... Maybe GR will change their minds and come down to Singapore? That would be a miracle, and I'd be there in an instant....
