Last show of 2017 before the two month break and the release of Thought Contagion in 2018.

Information

Second show in Australia since 2013.

Presale began at Friday 4 August at 2pm AEST.

General on sale starts Thursday 10 August at noon AEST.

The show included last performances of New Kind of Kick, The Globalist and Drones to date.

One day earlier, Marc Carolan tweeted "16 years...Then you revisit Eternally Missed...", which led some fans to speculate Eternally Missed was going to be played in Melbourne, however this turned out to be false and Carolan was refering to the La Cigale by request show, which took place two months after this gig.
