Powderfinger have announced a new intimate and interactive national tour that will give their fans the "ultimate" concert experience.
Returning to theatre venues for the first time in eight years, the ARIA Award-winning Brisbane band will perform two hit-filled sets - an acoustic set and a rock set separated by an intermission.
The Upstairs at the Downstairs Tour will also give ticket buyers the opportunity to help choose the band's set list, by voting for their favourite Powderfinger songs online.
"For this tour we're doing something a little different, something a little more intimate," guitarist Darren Middleton said.
"We're trying a concept we've never done before on a tour, and that is to split the show into two halves.
"One of our main focuses for this tour is to make it a little more personal and have more interaction with our fans and what they would like to hear us play.
"Hence, they're choosing our set list... we will be at their mercy!"
The tour will take in the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth in June supported by Victorian singer Whitley.
Tickets for all shows go on sale on at 9am Friday, April 11.

Nice!!
Somehow I have a sneaky feeling that "Tail" still won't make it on to the setlist, but you never know, stranger things have happened.
It'll be good to have the chance to hear some old stuff though, that I haven't seen them play for quite a few years such as Living Type, Boing Boing, Belter, JC, d.a.f., Up & Down & Back Again etc

Yay that sounds awesome!! I love the tivoli! oooh maybe i will finally get to hear oipic. I think i've seen them play about 10 times over the years... cool.
Now Fish there was just no need for that 'like' right there - the yanks are getting inside your head
How the heck did so many people on the board keep such a thing quiet??? Mind you I havent read it all yet but its surprising
morning Brendan
i guess they had to keep if mum if you know what i mean? if eddie/pearl jam did that here, and you know the venue is the size of someone's apartment... would you risk your place there by telling the world?
I am doing nothing else today until I get this sorted!!! I didn't pay US$965 delivery for this shit!!! That board had better be on it's way here from Sydney, by this afternoon.....OR ELSE!!!!! :mad:

but f*ck.. you'd be tempted to
Even me with my big mouth didn't spill when they played in my backyard a couple of weeks ago :eek:

I knew a day before the "official" announcement that PJ were playing Newie. I was busting to tell people but was sworn to secrecy. The easiest thing I found was to stay away from this place

GRRRRRR! :mad:
ohhh Kylie :( do not give up the abuse/calls/etc.. let 'em know who's boss.. this is ridiculous :(
It's about time they rehearsed more of their catalogue. Lazy bastards
yeah, but i've got the feeling like you said, that i think we'll only have a limited amount of songs to choose from for them to play, i doubt they would say "anything from the whole back catalog"
i'd make sure nothing after Od#5 got on the setlist.
it'd be pretty much E.Ps/ Parables/D.A. if it was up to me.
