When Dyke played in Sydney in 1988 they filled the Sydney Opera House
Concert Hall (2-3000?). However other UK bands often gain poor attendances
in Sydney, and I guess for the same reasons - lack of promotion. The
visiting Salvo bands always draw big crowds, boosted by promotion within
the SA I suppose.
