To help sweeten the deal a little more, a live interactive press conference will be streaming via www.twitchtv.com/videogameslive on Wednesday April 25th at 9pm EST. The show will be hosted by the tour’s organisers and will include announcements regarding other details and negotiating show set lists.
Tickets go on sale starting Friday April 27th at 9pm ET, however Montreal’s performance tickets begin the following day. Here’s hoping we can see some similar treatment with a few more shows in Australia, too!
