I would think they would tour Australia at some stage on the next tour, given the success of the LH Tour. Australia, while experiencing the effects of the financial crisis, has remained reasonably sound. Technically, we are not even in a recession.

Given just a few of the international acts touring Australia at the moment and the amount of tickets sold you would think BJ could sell out another tour:
*AC/DC sold over 500,000 tickets across the country with the cheapest ticket AUD$99
*Green Day has sold out shows in all major cities
*Pink is doing 15 shows just in Melbourne at the moment with 525,000 tickets sold across the country.

The only tour to do poorly is New Kids on The Block, they canceled their shows blaming the recession...whatever helps them sleep at night.
