considering you are named after a wombat, one of the native animals of australia, i believe it only fair and just for you to re-schedule another under 18's performance. its not often we get to see our favouroite bands in concert, especially as they are all over 18. my hopes were up, i am crushed. ps: i emphasize UNDER 18 PERFORMANCE, you cannot begin to understand the extent of my excitement this afternoon...

I'll confess i dont even know who the wombats are. i only got on here because one of my best mates is a mega fan n was disgusted at some of the comments a minority made about the show not being on.

look i who dont even know this band nor care to know, know this. that a real fan would respect the fact that a band member is sick. i real fan would get all stalkerish and try to hunt the band down so that they could deliever them home made chicken soup. A real fan wouldnt complain about travel cos a real fan only cares about the well being of the band not themselves. a die hard fan wouldnt use emotional black mail on the band they are meant to love.

have some respect people. cos if someone that knows nothing knows this. then u should be ashamed to call urself a fan.

Outside the hi-fi we enjoyed busking monks in your absense, all distressed wombats fans were invited to their party,
Hare Krishna!
