Brad Cox Postpones June New Zealand Tour To November
ARIA-nominated Australian singer-songwriter Brad Cox is shifting gears: his much-anticipated New Zealand tour, originally set for June,will now take place in November, with new South Island shows added to make it a bigger, better summer visit.
While the Wellington show unfortunately won't be going ahead this time, Christchurch and Auckland tickets will remain valid for the new November dates. Refunds for Wellington tickets are available through the original points of sale, and Brad sincerely thanks all his Wellington fans for their support and understanding.
Brad Cox shares:
'Hey everyone, Coxy here. Unfortunately, I've had to postpone my NZ dates to November for unforeseen circumstances, but the good news is we have added some new shows in the South Island. Unfortunately, we cannot make the Wellington date work now. Christchurch and Auckland tickets will be valid for the new dates, and I really look forward to partying with you in November. A full refund will be available from your points of sale if required. As this tour poster states, I 'really do love NZ,' and as unfortunate as it is to have to postpone, it actually means I'll be able to spend a bunch more time in your beautiful country with your beautiful people.'
The rescheduled New Zealand tour supports Brad's fourth studio album, Endemic Intelligence In Multiple Dimensions, out Friday, September 26. The 15-track album promises a bold new chapter in Cox's artistic evolution – unfiltered, emotionally raw, and sonically adventurous.

The razzmatazz of a bullseye sport
When Australian darts champion Damon Heta aka The Heat does his 'walk-on' to the oche for tonight's New Zealand Darts Masters title in Auckland, he'll be rarking up the fans to a different tune. The Perth-based world number 10 will be tapping into his kiwi roots when he walks on to The Exponents' smash hit Why Does Love Do This To Me. The walk-on theme music is a vital part of the razzmatazz of the World Series of Darts tour and Heta, with his trademark handlebar moustache, is famous for his whacky dancing and headdress of flames. He loves the crowds and the crowds love him. Damon Heta, The Heat (R) and Ben Robb aka Big Rig. Photo: Supplied Usually on the world tour, Heta gets the fans chanting to Bruce Springsteen's Dancing in the Dark, but this weekend he hopes he can win over the famously boisterous crowd with a tried and true Kiwi crowd pleaser. 'It's the rugby one, isn't it, that everyone sings to,' says Heta, who is proud of his local connections. 'It's crazy. Today I'm going to meet some family that I've never met before.' Heta hopes the Auckland fans will be on his side as he vies for the championship against the world's best, including teen sensation Luke Littler. He's beaten 'the young punk' once and reckons he can put him back in his place again. 'It's like he doesn't have a care in the world, like most teenagers, you know what I mean,' he jokes. 'No, fair play to him, he's brought the sport along in leaps and bounds … so yeah, it's getting good knowledge and expanding the game.' Darts legends, commentator John McDonald and referee Russ Bray tell The Detail how they've watched it go from a boozy pub game to a global event . 'I go to Mongolia and do darts in Mongolia,' says Bray. 'The change is massive.' 'It's grown beyond anyone's comprehension now,' says McDonald. 'It's a major sport, second to only the Premier League Football in the United Kingdom, with television ratings that most sports would be envious of. 'So it's grown into this enormous global brand and a very, very exciting night out.' Heta says when he played his first darts match in a pub at the age of 15, he had no idea that he could make big money from it. 'It wasn't until the big boys came over and then finding out that I could compete and from then on I just went on and on and did all the protocols that you need to do to become professional and sure enough I'm back here and I'm one of the big dogs,' he says. New Zealand amateur favourite Ben Robb, aka Big Rig, says the game has developed in the years since he first played in a pub. Top level darts now attracts all ages and women, and the money is so 'grand' there is a professional mindset. Robb reckons mental strength makes the difference at competitions. 'Once everyone learns how to throw a dart it's about being composed, handling big moments, owning the stage and being the big guy. ' Check out how to listen to and follow The Detail here.
