| Train to support
Live on upcoming Australian tour |
MTV Australia is reporting that Train will be supporting Live during their upcoming
Australian tour in December. Tour dates, which have yet to be officially confirmed,
are expected to be announced soon. (The Triple M radio station in Australia will
be having a "big Live announcement" in early November, so the dates will
most likely be announced at that time, if not announced on FOL before then).  posted september 29, 2003 |
