Due to a virus infection from Brown, the concert planned for May 3, 2011 in Perth had to be canceled. The show in Moline , which should have taken place on November 2nd, also had to be canceled due to a conflict with the schedule.
reception
Briony Skinner of the Brisbane Times website wrote that Brown "certainly put on a show to remember" and added that he "did what most fans wanted to see - the dancing." Adriana Urquia of MTV Australia was of the opinion that especially Brown singing skills were impressive during his "heartfelt ballads". Most recently, she drew a conclusion that Brown "made the crowd hot and got them moving and singing along to his songs".
