I have been to a doctor and a speech therapist and there is nothing i can do but rest my voice. We are called the Wombats for god sake, so you will see us back in Oz as soon as possible i assure you!

This sucks, but I hope you get better soon, that is the main thing.
Please remember Adelaide when you reschedule! We don't get many of our favourite bands down here and I was really excited about seeing you guys live.

I'm so gutted about this show.
Noone ever comes to Adelaide. Or at least...anyone good.
I'm glad you were going to come to Adelaide, but PLEASE make sure you put us on the list for your next tour. You did sell out two shows after all =]]
I'm sitting at home right now...imagining what would be happening at the gov right now. I wonder how far you'd be through...
Hmmm...


Make sure Murph gets better, and come back soon!
Adelaide loves you!

my sister and i are sooo disappointed. We payed approximately $1000 in airfares, accommodation and tickets to fly to Melbourne to see our favourite band play only to find a notice on the door to say the show was cancelled. We worked really hard to be able to pay for all the costs and are really disappointed :( we hope Murph gets better soon. Lots of love from your Australian fans Jamie and Kimberley.

fair enuff your sick, but putting a second show before the first in adelaide only let the people who arent your true fans to see you. people who got in first missed out. i dont care about my money id just rather see you play, the only thing to do is come back

Ohh, that is sad to here,
I'm not from Australia,but I have an australian Pen Pal, and i was telling her about when i saw you guys in the Edinburgh corn exchange, you where great. My Pen Pal suddenly wanted to go, then realised it was cancelled.

I hope you get well soon :]]

hey, I was fortunate enough to score tickets to the uncancelled gig
just thought you should know, you guys were so incredibly amazing. Your music produced so much energy, and the drummer (sorry, don't know your names, just like your music) you put alot of power into it, but controlled it so well. If i wasn't so busy jumping around, i would have been in awe at the pure skill. Come back to Adelaide - I will so see you again
