Bryan Adams Treats Adelaide To The World Premiere of ‘Roll With The Punches’, Perth Cancelled Last Minute

Bryan Adams premiered a brand-new song ‘Roll With The Punches’ for the first time for Adelaide on Friday night but for Perth it was a different story on Sunday. The show was cancelled at the last minute.

In Perth Sunday night the Adams concert literally turned into a shit show due to sewage leakage along Wellington St outside the venue which threatened the inside plumbing of the arena. An alert went out “As a priority, Water Corporation crews are working to clear the large blockage of fat, grease and rags, which has caused several wastewater overflows at properties along Wellington Street.
“Acting on public health advice from Department of Health, the Bryan Adams concert at RAC Arena this evening was cancelled due to the risk of sewage backing up within the venue toilets.”

RAC Arena updated fans with “RAC Arena advise that tonight’s performance by Bryan Adams is postponed due to an external Water Corporation water supply issue which could not be resolved.”

“All existing ticketholders will be notified of an update as soon as possible and need not take any action at this time.”

As for Adelaide on the new song, ‘Roll With The Punches’ is the title track from Bryan’s 16th studio album and follows up his 2022 release ‘So Happy It Hurts’. ‘So Happy It Hurts’ is also the title of Bryan’s current Australian tour.
