Between these final dates honoring their daring 27th studio album, Phantom Island, the band has delivered a few of their classic rock shows; their Dec. 7 set at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall demonstrated that there’s a certain magic to these straight-ahead shows that just can’t fiy on the stage with a full orchestra.
