When George first announced his 25 Live Tour in 2007 tickets, were snapped up in minutes. The critically acclaimed tour saw George perform in front of over 2 million people worldwide with a 49 date 25 Live Arena Tour and a 30 date 25 Live Stadium Tour. In summer 2008, George took his 25 Live Tour to arenas across North America touring North America for the first time in 20 years. In London alone, 350,000 people collectively watched him performing in Earls Court, Wembley Arena, The Roundhouse and the newly renovated Wembley Stadium, where he made musical history as the first artist to perform at the momentous venue in June 2007. George Michael has enjoyed one of the most successful and enduring careers in the history of pop music, selling more than 100 million records globally and encompassing six US No. 1 singles, a Grammy award, three American Music Awards, an MTV Video Music Award and two prestigious Ivor Novello awards for songwriting. His record "Faith" has sold over 20 million copies alone. In addition, Michael has garnered 11 British No. 1 singles and eight British No. 1 albums. He recently was declared the most played British artist on radio over the course of the last 20 years. His exceptional performances in the UK, Europe and North America received unprecedented praise from both critics and fans across the globe. "George proved he is simply one of the best vocalists this country has ever produced." — The Sun "King George still reigns supreme" — Mail on Sunday "A masterclass in pop genius" — The Observer "A tremendous singer, a complete showman. All George Michael needs is a mic, his songs, and the magic on stage is instaneous" — La Parisien "As he closed with the still stirring 'Freedom,' his hands raised high, testifying like an evangelist for self-determination. Then he was on his knees, giving the 'I'm not worthy' bow several times towards his fans. His crowds roared back, still dancing to the music, suggesting that maybe he was." — Rolling Stone It was in 2006 that George broke the all-time record for both tickets sales and gross income at the Parken stadium in Copenhagen, a record that was formerly held by international rock group U2.

Australian promoter Paul Dainty said "It is thrilling to bring George Michael to Australia again, he last toured here on the Faith tour in 1988. He is a consummate performer and will deliver a stunning show to his fans who have waited 22 years to see him perform in Australia."

George will perform material taken from the entire span of his career, including classic Wham! tracks.

Grinning George Michael looks like he's got success in the bag as he arrives in Australia yesterday for a tour.
The former Wham! star, 46, touched down in a private jet clutching a giant brown leather hold-all ahead of a series of gigs which start in Perth tonight.
The concerts will be George's first Down Under for 22 years and promoter Paul Dainty says fans are "thrilled".

George Michael on Australian stage
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainment/george-michael-on-australian-stage/story-e6frf96f-1225832582934

BRITISH pop star George Michael kicked off his first Australian tour in 22 years at the Burswood Dome on Saturday night.



Despite the venue change from ME Bank Stadium to the oft-complained about acoustics of the Burswood Dome - 15,000 punters eagerly awaited the pop stylings of the legendary gay icon.
There were some production problems during the test run on Friday night - it was the first time the stage was setup in over a year and a half.
Yesterday, the elaborate platform was revealed as three large screens and two smaller ones decorated the stage to allow even the furthest of seats to see the British singer perform.
...
For reasons unknown - the start time was delayed to about 8.30pm, but Michael was worth the wait.
He greeted the crowd looking debonair in a black shirt and his signature shades. It was a far cry from his ''Choose Life'' t-shirt he wore in his heyday as part of 80s pop group Wham!
It was wall-to-wall hits from the man of the hour as he asked the crowd ''Are we ready to make up after 22 years?'' in reference to the last time he visited Perth.
``Fast love'' was a hot favourite, but everything he sang throughout the evening was lapped up by the adoring audience.
