No 'Apologies' from One Republic in Auckland
Ryan Tedder, One Republic
How professional person is that? Maroon 5 cancel their Newly Sjaelland leg of their circuit due to an unavoidable scheduling clangor, only One Republic carry on. Moving their public presentation from the Vector Sports stadium in Auckland to a more suggest place setting at The Powerstation allowed the screech girly fans to office themselves a great deal closer.
