09/03/05 - ROD LAVER ARENA,
MELBOURNE Summary
by Steven Stanley:
BA hits the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne for the final night
of the hugely successful leg of the Australian 'Room Service Tour'. Bryan made
it a special night for everybody and told everyone he would really rock out. 'One
Night Love Affair' is added to the setlist because Bryan remembered back in 1983,
Melbourne was one of the first places he tried out the song. This was when he
was the support act for 'The Police' and before the 'Reckless' album had even
come out yet. 'I'm Ready' was sung with former Westlife singer Brian McFadden
who was in town because the girl he is dating (Australian singer Delta Goodrem)
is in town also. McFadden apparently sang most of the song with BA on backing
vocals. One final surprise was Shannon Noll coming back onstage (he was BA's opening
act throughout the tour) to duet with Bryan on 'Please Forgive Me'. A 160 minute
show and an audience going wild for Bryan ended the tour nicely. A night to remember
for all the Aussie fans.
