1. Cher for Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame was created 25 years ago for the purposes of "recognizing the contributions of those who have had a significant impact on the evolution, development and perpetuation of rock and roll" (RRHOF).
Cher (born Cherilyn Sarkisian) has not only been a vital player in the growth and evolution of music genre and style, but was and is the INSPIRATION for celebrated artists worldwide, including already inducted artist, Madonna.
Cher has been at the face & in the heart of rock and roll for every decade since the 1960's from her first industry job as a backup singer to her latest album announced for release September 2013. That is more than 50 years of talent, perseverance and dedication.
Cher has more than paid her dues for this award and it is long past time for her to have received recognition of those accomplishments from her peers.
This petition is also affiliated with 'The Lovelie Project 2013'; a collection of art, multimedia, letters, tweets et. al. planned for presentation to Cher at her Toronto stop for the 'Never Can Say Goodbye' Tour (TBA).
If you would like to submit something to TLP, please visit our facebook site here https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Lovelie-Project/458934417509979 or email submissions to thelovelieproject@hotmail.com with instructions as to credit/copyright.
Shock Australia (who distribute Razor & Tie, HIM's new label) have confirmed that Razor & Tie have NO intention of distributing HIM in Australia, so all music purchases will have to be online.
They have also added that they do NOT intend on supporting an Australian tour of HIM. iTunes Australia have said that they will not have Tears On Tape available for digital download.
3. Vans Warped Tour Perth 2013!
This year it was announced that Vans Warped Tour would be returning to Australia and will not be coming to Perth. As we get Soundwave and completely sell out tickets for Perth Soundwave I see no reason for us to miss out on another popular festival with similar music.
"Soundwave boss AJ Maddah will team up with Warped founder Kevin Lyman to bring the festival back to Australia and has confirmed that the tour will travel to Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and a couple of regional centers on the east coast. Perth will not be on the schedule."( - http://www.fasterlouder.com.au ) This is ridiculous. As the manager of Soundwave he should see Perth as a potential market and we need to show him we want the festival as much as the festival wants us.
The festival came to Australia for the first time in 1998 and never came to Perth either. Its time for a change! Grab your keyboards and lets show the Perth music scene isn't as weak as they perceive.
Legendary band Tool have announced their first AUS/NZ headlining tour since 2002. But they have skipped the City of Perth to the dismay of many Tool fans living there.
Perth would easily be able to accomodate a Tool gig in the newly opened Perth Arena, and more than likely be able to sell all the tickets.
5. Deathstars show in Adelaide May 2013
Another fantastic band. Another "Australian" tour.
The Deathstars are a "deathglam" band from Sweden which have had a massive influence in the music industry in the past 10 years. They are currently coming to Australia to do a tour in May 2013.
Like most "Australian" tours, this tour is an exclusive east coast tour with Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne only featured on the bill.
Obviously we Adelaidians need to show promoters that there is a sufficient fan base in Adelaide to have a date on this amazing tour.
I have had a chat with the promoters and they have stated that if 100 GENUINE signatures were signed of the public in Adelaide then they will seriously consider a show in Adelaide!
6. Reinstate Lance Armstrong's Ironman Eligibility
Lance Armstrong began his athletic career as a triathlete winning his first race at the age of 13. At 16, Lance Armstrong became a professional triathlete and became national sprint-course triathlon champion in 1989 and 1990 at 18 and 19, respectively.
In 1993 Armstrong focused his attention on cycling and became a decorated cyclist before being diagnosed with stage 3 testicular cancer at the age of 25. The cancer spread to his lungs, abdomen and brain. He had a 20% chance of living. He had surgery removing his diseased testicle and began chemotherapy. He also had brain surgery to remove the tumors on his brain.
After successfully defeating cancer Armstrong went on to win a record 7 consecutive Tour De France titles. With this unrivaled success he mainstreamed cycling in the United States, and used his celebrity and prestige to raise hundreds of millions of dollars for Livestrong and touching an unmeasurable amount of lives in the process.
After retiring from cycling he returned to triathlon in February, 2012 at Ironman 70.3 Panama finishing 2nd overall. He also entered half-Ironman distance races in Texas (7th) and St. Croix (3rd) before breaking through with victories at Ironman 70.3 Florida and Ironman 70.3 Hawaii setting a course record.
In recent weeks his Tour De France titles have been stripped, and he has been banned from cycling and all other sports governed by the US Anti-Doping Agency based on insurmountable evidence that he used performance enhancing drugs during his cycling career. It is yet to be seen whether the titles will go to the second place finishers of those years. Note that the 2nd and 3rd place finishers of all 7 years that Armstrong won his titles have at one point in their careers been suspended for the use of performance enhancing drugs.
7. For a Newcastle, NSW show on P!NKS 2013 Tour
In past years P!NK has come to Newcastle and had sell out shows, but with the 2013 tour upcoming, many people have been shocked to find that there are only Sydney shows for us Nova's.
8. Nicki Minaj for Odyssey Arena Belfast
Hell of a lot of Northern Ireland Barbz missing out!

9. Leehom to perform in Europe
This is a petition by Wei Yi U.K & Europe on behalf of Wang Lehom's European fans.
Leehom, you are loved all over the world and your concerts are always a huge success. Despite touring all over the world, you have never performed in Europe. We appreciate that it would maybe mean putting on a much smaller concert than you are used to but you have a huge number of fans here who would love the opportunity to see you perform.
As such we, the undersigned, request that you come to Europe to perform for your fans here.
10. Get Mindless Behavior To NJ
Mindless Behavior hasn't been in NJ for a very long period of time.
They have a new tour coming up; but they haven't scheduled any time for their NJ fans.
As all of you directioners know, One Direction's management missed Perth on their Australian Tour.
We want to make One Direction's management and the media aware of this so our chances of having a concert here are very real. Please sign and tell all of your friends! Tell your friends to pass it on too!! Let's do this together!
12. NKOTBSB please come to Panama
During the summer of 2010, the Backstreet Boys joined New Kids on the Block on stage at the Radio City Music Hall (as a part of NKOTB Casi-NO Tour) and this was the beginning of this nkotbsb-manía. Great and important stars came to tour in Panama, this is time to show how them are important here.

Please invite everyone you know to this page! SPREAD THE WORD!
14. Get KRA to tour in the USA
KRA is an incredible Japanese Rock band mixing punk, indie rock, and funk all into an incredible milkshake. They move and play with such technical ingenuity and passion.
We need to see bands like this supported so they can go country hopping. This broadens our horizons as a country and stimulates the spread of culture on both ends. And the music rocks, need I say more?

16. Weezer fans for Australia tour
The U.S. band Weezer enjoys popularity among music fans worldwide. Performing to audiences across the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia, Weezer has played to sell out crowds.
Their last tour to Australia was in 1996, playing to festival audiences and at local venues who embraced Weezer's music with enthusiasm.
Since then, the band has maintained an active fan base online through their website and social networking sites. Frequently aired on national radio network Triple J and music television programs, the band has continued to connect to a new generation of fans.
Audiences are eager to hear the band perform live in Australia and are looking to promoters to support a tour.
17. Bring the Goo Goo Dolls to Australia 2011-2012
Goo Goo Dolls have not toured Australia since 2002 and Australia holds a very large fan base!!
The Goo Goo Dolls are one of rock music's greatest artists. They have a career that has spanned twenty years.
With a mix of rock songs and ballads a live show is worth every cent.
They have never been to Australia for a full scale tour. It is time the tour promoters organised for this brilliant band to come out and tour all capital cities.
Please return to Australia!!
It has just been announced today that Xanadu may finish in Melbourne and not tour. The Sydney siders and Brisbane people could miss out on this wonderful musical.
I have seen this musical three times, each time had a wonderful time watching it. It's the only musical where you can sit on the stage.
19. Words Versing Verses to support City in Colour
Throughout life there are times when you need to follow your heart and let whatever comes of it, just happen. When vocalist Damion Page paired up with guitarist Kevin Leggett in 2009, the Brisbane duo had no idea that this was the journey they would in fact take.
Coming from varied music backgrounds and many years of experience in the industry, the two experimented with different sounds and acoustics to create the original and organic sound of ‘Words Versing Verses’.
“All of our old things, all of our roots have brought us to doing what we are doing now. We haven’t just abandoned everything. We’ve just kind of moved on from it and taken what we’ve learnt. I think this is more of a release for us.”
In March 2010 the duo made the major decision to head to Brisbane’s R & D Records to work with producers Ric and Darran Parker and start production on the self-titled EP.
“The ideas just seemed to pour out of us. We wanted such a raw emotional sound and we soon learned it was better to stay with our initial spontaneous ideas. We didn’t want these ideas and stories to become over produced and lifeless.”
“We are really excited about this EP release, touring and seeing what people get out of it.”
Having already SOLD OUT their first two home shows in Brisbane the boys are quick are excited to announce that they have been signed to Brisbane label R&D Records for their new up-coming single and Video for "TIGERS"
20. Arcade Fire to do a tour with a full orchestra
We've seen several bands such as Elbow and Snow Patrol take to the stage with the backing of a full orchestra in recent years. The results on many occasion have been mindblowingly good.
Arcade Fire are one of the finest instrumental bands on the planet and to see them perform live alongside a full orchestra would quite definitely be ranked amongst the greatest shows of all time.
21. Antiques Roadshow COME to OZ
Antiques Roadshow came to Australia in 2005 back when it wasn't on free to air television. Now that it is in a prime T.V. time (5.30) it has become a favourite of teens, families and just generally everyone.
It's a great show to wind down to over a coffee after a hard day at work and just enjoy the thrills and shocks that happen each and every show! BBC and Antiques Roadshow need to say thanks to Australians for their support with a tour down under!
22. Get Mike Krompass & Dave Filice back in David Archuleta's band!
Mike Krompass and Dave Filice were the best guitar and bass players David Archuleta ever had. Mike has been with David since the beginning, co-wrote 2 songs from David's debut album with him, 2 songs from David's new album The Other Side Of Down, and produced one of the songs as well.
Dave Filice was David's bassist on his summer tour 09 and his Christmas From The Heart Tour 09. Both are great guys and great musicians, and lots of fans have really gotten to know both of them and have almost become friends with them. If they're not in the band for David's next tour, it really won't be the same.
Sign if you agree and want Mike and Dave back in the band! Because Mike and Dave weren't just "part of the band", they were part of the family.

24. Kylie en México con Aphrodite-Les Folies Tour
La cantante australiana Kylie Minogue empezará la gira Aphrodite - Les folies tour en el 2011 y queremos que venga a México en concierto.
Tom Waits hasn't been to the UK for a while now, myself and a lot of other people would enjoy to hear his music live.
My aim is to get 10,000 people to sign who would love to hear him perform live, then I will send messages via his MySpace, Twitter, any other websites he may have joined (even if it's not him) in hope that he'll agree! :) Thank you! x
26. Bring Placebo "Battle For The Sun" Tour to US and Canada
Placebo’s current “Battle For The Sun” Tour around the globe has been a complete success since same started past June 2009. On July of 2009 Placebo were set to start a tour in North America and Canada next September 2009 as announced on their official website PlaceboWorld.
After an intensive schedule playing about 5 countries in less than 10 days, Placebo´s frontman, Mr. Brian Molko, collapsed on stage at the Summer Sonic Festival in Osaka, Japan past August 2009, victim of exhaustion coupled with a virus he contracted in Asia. This situation forced the band to cancel the entire North American and Canadian Tour, not without letting the fans know the band was willing to try and do everything to rearrange the cancelled dates as soon as possible.
Mr. Brian Molko recovered well and the band got back to work on September 2009. After 2 unforgettable appearances in Mexico on September 2009 (Coca Cola Zero Fest and MTV Latin America Music Awards) and the über successful South America Tour past April 2010, Placebo is now back in Europe for their Summer Festivals Tour.
The band’s headline performances continue growing. Unfortunately they haven’t rescheduled North American and Canadian Tour. Many fans overseas are getting really frustrated as the dates Placebo’s management has been releasing since Mr. Brian Molko recovered and until -at least- next September 2010, do not include US and/or Canada.
Notwithstanding the above, we still have hope for US and Canada dates to be rescheduled before “Battle For The Sun” Worldwide Tour is officially over.
It has been nearly 26 years since Norwegian band a-ha performed in Australia, and have not released their last album here. Now they're on their farewell tour, and have neglected all us loyal fans!
At the beginning they said they would be performing here, but no dates were announced. So please, sign this petition to bring them back for the last time.
28. Avenged Sevenfold Come To Australia!!!
We've got their albums, we've got their dvd's, we love them, and we want them here in Australia again!
A7X came here in 2006 and both old and new fans want them back! They're touring USA this year, and the UK, why not come here too!
29. Human-Clad Monsters: Cancel the Age Limit
D'espairsRay - the Japanese rock band - has finally come to America. Fans are excited and eager to participate in the live shows hosted by the Human-Clad Monsters Tour.
However, a single dilemma still seams to plague the fans; age limits. In the New York venue there is an age limit set for anyone over 19.
This appears to be the only concert to have this age limit and sadly this appears to be the concert closest to many fans.
30. NKOTB World Tour 2011 - Australia
The 2009 tour was cancelled so please ......Come back to Australia for the NKTOB World Tour 2011.
