The American trio of +LIVE+, Bush and Stone Temple Pilots had been set to play the same Australian bill together for the first time.
That was until COVID-19 came and took all our fun away.
In great news for Under The Southern Stars fans and patrons, the rescheduled dates of +LIVE+, BUSH and STONE TEMPLE PILOTS tour have been announced 🤘
Promoter One World Entertainment released a statement
"Webeen working hard behind the scenes to secure the rescheduled 2021 tour routing and thanks patrons for their patience during this time.
The rescheduled tour – which sees +LIVE+, Bush and Stone Temple Pilots alternate their playing order across nine outdoor and two indoor shows - will commence in Perth on February 16, 2021 and end on the Sunshine Coast QLD on March 7, 2021.
Special guest support acts Rose Tattoo and Electric Mary have also committed to the rescheduled dates.
+LIVE+ frontman Ed Kowalczyk said: “While the world is in an uncertain place right now, we can be certain that the UTSS festivals will go ahead in early 2021. We are super excited to get in front of our Australian fans so please, keep your tickets for the rescheduled events as they are 100% valid. We can’t wait to be playing for you very soon, so please come and celebrate with us.”
Gavin Rossdale from BUSH added: “I wanted to reach out to all our fans in Australia and say that UTSS is going to be happening in 2021. Our hearts go out to all the medical teams around the world and the first responder teams that have been taking care of everyone. We’re going to be back better and stronger than ever as an entire human race. Australia, I love you and can’t wait to be there. All tickets will be valid – so much love and take care.”
And STP’s Robert De Leo: “We thank you for your patience as we got all this sorted out. Stay safe, spend some time with loved ones and we will see you all very soon. Much love.” As has been reported, the Australian music industry has been completely crippled by COVID-19. Those working in lighting, sound, production, rigging, security, site management, catering, ushers, not to mention the musicians themselves, are all now unemployed and, will likely be, for many months. With so many concerts and events cancelled, the industry desperately needs support and any positive news about the future is welcomed.
All 2020 tour tickets are valid for the rescheduled festival dates and no exchange is necessary, so just hold on to your tickets and we’ll see you next year. The rescheduled dates are listed below.
There are two noticeable changes to our 2021 tour dates, being that the Tuncurry event has been cancelled. Ticket holders for Tuncurry will be contacted directly via email. We also have a new venue for our Sunshine Coast show – The Sandstone Point Hotel!
All tickets purchased for Sunshine Coast Stadium will be valid at Sandstone Point Hotel. We will also be in contact shortly regarding our complimentary bus service directly to The Sandstone Point Hotel for existing ticket holders (purchased for Sunshine Coast Stadium)! By today’s announcement, +LIVE+, BUSH and STONE TEMPLE PILOTS have signalled their support for the Australian live music scene, along with Rose Tattoo and Electric Mary. So make a diary note of the rescheduled dates, and let’s all look forward to seeing this cracking tour. Roll on 2021 we say……!
See you all in February and March 2021 for the Under The Southern Stars rock carnival! 👏⚡🤘
Tickets for the rescheduled dates are on sale on Friday, April 3 from 10.00am.
