Here's the "answer" I got back from RoadRunner Records - totally ignored the question, and contradicted themselves.

Question:
Who was the promoter for the recent Nightwish tour in Australia? You mentioned that a promoter was interested in a Within Temptation tour do you know any that might be interested in a tour by The Gathering? (Aussie fans certainly are...)
Answer:
Mmmmm, I doubt the Within Temptation tour is going to happen any time soon. They have quite a large stage production and it would cost a lot of money to bring the band and their equipment out. Unfortunately there doesn't appear to be enough interest here in Australia to facilitate this. Never say never though!
Anyone got any contacts at the Royal Netherlands embassy/consulate? New Holland must be due for a "cultural exchange visit" from The Gathering by now.
Edit: Odd - I posted this on June 20, yet the message timestamp says June 6.
