• Comber on tour

• Still got the look
New Zealand fans have the chance to discover whether big-time Swedish rockers Roxette still have the look when they play a show in Auckland next year.
It is the first outing in New Zealand for the duo of singer Marie Fredriksson and guitarist Per Gessle, who had their own Swedish postal stamp after a string of hits in the '80s and '90s.
They are booked to play at Auckland's Vector Arena on Saturday, February 11.
Roxette is one of the most successful bands to come out of Sweden, with hits including The Look, It Must Have Been Love, Joyride, Listen To Your Heart, Dangerous, Sleeping In My Car and Dressed For Success.
Their album Charm School, released this year, went straight to number one on the German, Czech and Swiss charts. Tickets go on sale on September 5 at www.ticketmaster.co.nz
