It's a sad sad day as AC/DC's promoter has confirmed that there will be no further shows in Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth.

Across the cities, hopeful fans signed petitions to get more shows after the initial tickets were snapped up in hours.  Angry fans unable to get tickets vented their fury at scalpers selling tickets online on popular website E-bay for 200% over the retail price.

Extra shows were added for Melbourne and Sydney as the legendary rock stars are making their first trip down under for nearly 10 years.

Do you think it's fair?

  I am very upset I will miss seeing Australia's greatest Rock Bands I amy never get to see them live.

  All I wanted was 1 general admission ticket and they sold out the ticket staff negleted to go up and down the line to advise us that general admission tickets were sold out I could not afford the reserved tickets so I wasted a whole afternoon waiting in line for tickets that did not exist.

  I can't afford to go interstate to see them. I think they should rethink about Adelaide. Other states get two concerts why does good old Adelaide miss out once again??

  WHAT'S WRONG WITH ADELAIDE?
  
  You hear of sooo many concerts not coming at all to us, or, doing ONE SHOW it's ridiculous.

  We are the friendliest state in the hemishpere, where celebrities can actually walk up our streets, without being mobbed by the media or fans.

  We may not be as big as other states, but the fans are all just as loyal and it is they who the bands should be thinking of, I guess it's all about the money isn't it!

  I've waited 30 years to be able to see ACDC and the chance has possibly gone from me as I cannot afford to travel interstate for a concert

  ACDC YOU'RE FANS ADORE YOU, EVERY LAST ONE OF US, WHY DON'T YOU CONSIDER US HERE IN ADELAIDE? TELL YOUR PROMOS YOU ARE IN CHARGE NOT THEM!

  PLEASE BRING US ANOTHER ADELAIDE CONCERT

  THIS IS NOT FAIR!!!

  Other states get two shows and I bet the second is just as a sell out as the 1st show!.

  Adelaide deserves a 2nd show!

  that rreally sux, Us Adeladians deserve a second concert just like the other states, what's wrong with doing us a favor for once. I was actuall really surprised that they were even gonna do an Adelaide show because almost all the great acts miss Adelaide, which is really not fair we are people too and we love concerts, I think AC/DC should grow some balls and tell their promoters that we deserve another show. I mean look the concert is sold out, i could understand if it wasn't.
  Come on AC/DC please

  No 2nd Show but Dave Evans is coming to Adealde.
  Dave Evans, the voice of the original AC/DC and then hit makers Rabbit from Newcastle, does his first national run in almost thirty years. Evans, who is based in Dallas, Texas and tours continually around the US and Europe, did a handful of dates around Victoria late last year and appeared at The Adelaide International Guitar Festival. His Australian crew for the Classic Aussie Rock part of the show. Adelaide's 4aM will be support band for the South Australian leg of the tour in July / August

  It has been brought to my attention in an email that Melbourne and Sydney have just had more seats released for more AC/DC concerts.

  Gool old Adelaide can't even get a second concert where is the justice?

  Adelaide fans are no different to Melbourne or Sydney fans we all love AC/DC.
