See, the D last came here mid 2002 just after 'Tribute' and the self titled CD was released, and played smaller venues - showcases really - as Australia was really an untested fan base for them. They haven't been back since then as they haven't had any new material to promote as yet - they have been working on their film 'Pick of Destiny' with director Liam Lynch, and a soundtrack to go along with which will be their second CD.
So I guess they may do a bigger tour later depending on the success of that CD, but as Jack is in NZ at the moment filming 'King Kong' with Peter Jackson, they are doing a couple of NZ shows and a couple of Oz shows without any new material to promote. Kyle's family wanted to have xmas in Oz, so doing a couple of shows while they're down here is just a way to further test the fan base in Oz.
