## Background and release

In February 2017, Midnight Oil announced The Great Circle World Tour from the Sydney Harbour. The tour was the band's first in over 15 years, commenced in Sydney, travelled to 16 countries, completed 76 performances in six months and concluded at The Domain in November 2017.

## Reception

Jeff Jenkins from Stack Magazine called this a "re-formation that didn't suck" saying Midnight Oil had "lost none of their power and passion". Adding "This 26-song set is both a celebration of arguably our greatest band, and also a reminder to maintain the rage."
