Hey guys,
Does anyone know if there are plans for a tour to Australia? :D

[tpk]

there will be an australian tour. but as for now they're doing a minor europe promotional tour. then a few festivals in the states. so i'd say autralia is on sometime during late summer early fall.

[Tzar]

is that summer for us (AUS)? or summer for yo?

[Unforgiven]

I hope thats summer in the US..that's when I expected them to come out here.

Absolutely can't wait!

[Renegades]

Yeah I missed them last time they came to Australia... :(

[tpk]

is that summer for us (AUS)? or summer for yo?nah summer for america/europe.

so say maybe august - october?

[Tzar]

so say maybe august - october?

OMG OMG OMG!

Any chance of seeing them at Splendour in The Grass? End of July - perfect timing!

[jimmyjrg]

Will the shows be all ages?

[smurfun]

They would be all ages. I've seen the last 4 shows they have done in Sydney and they were all ages

I saw a few quazar shows too and some of those were over 18 shows

I heard a rumor about them playing at Splendrer in the grass but I doubt it. It prob just started cause money mark is playing there.

I can't wait to see them again. I hope they play the enmore theatre or Seninas (coogee bay live)it's a bit more intament than the hordon or syd ent centre

[Shuvit_69]

I doubt very highly they will be playing at Splendour in the Grass. Rumours for Livid and Big Day Out also seem to have started to surface.

All ages gigs are most likely but I would say will heavily depend on the venues at which they play at.

I saw them in 99 and they were awesome, can't wait for this tour!!

Cheers, Shuvit_69

[cazthecat]

Can't wait till they hit OZ... :D

I saw them three times in Melbourne on the Hello Nasty tour....once at the tennis centre and twice at the forum?? - the smaller gigs rocked...hope they tour at the smaller venues again!!

Kinda hope they just play their own gigs rather than the festivals - yeah you get to see lots of other bands, but who really wants to see other bands when the beasties are around....

[GBear]

Livid rumours? I really hope they don't play there. I'd rather see them at a smaller festival or their own show (but will go to the bigger ones if necessary!).

[Justin]

if they go on tour in aust for a few weeks...lets move in with minton :D
