Missy Higgins in the Vines

If your Easter diary is looking a little empty, consider spending Sunday with Missy Higgins and a host of other talented Aussies!

Missy will play a homecoming show at the Rochford Winery outside Melbourne in a bid to encourage folks to return to the bushfire ravaged area. She’ll be joined by The Cat Empire, The Whitlams’ Tim Freedman, Skipping Girl Vinegar, and The Audreys.

Missy’s been spending her time in Los Angeles these days, so local shows like this are a rare treat. Tickets start from $89 through Ticketmaster.

Victorian Bushfires Force Simply Red Show Cancellation

Raging bushfires throughout Victoria have forced Simply Red to cancel their Day on the Green show at the state’s Rochford Winery.

Country Fire Authorities and state government officials advised the promoter Roundhouse Entertainment that the weather situation was too unpredictable to risk the safety of concertgoers.

As I write this 108 people have been confirmed dead in the fires, while 750 homes have been destroyed. That makes these fires the worst in Australia’s history. Given the scale of the tragedy, I doubt anyone would have felt up to attending the concert anyway.

Ticket holders are advised to hang on to their tickets at this point, as A Day on the Green organisers are attempting to reschedule the concert around lead singer Mick Hucknall’s international commitments.
