Next years punk gigs

[fat_mike]

Having read lots of rumours and confirmations of next year possible punk shows in australia i thought i should post them for all punk fans on the boards who may be interested.

starting with Rise against touring in january as part of the BDO festival, they will also be playing the annandale hotel on january 28th with irrelevant as support. tix are on sale for $33

Next is Anti flag and the lwarence arms playing the metro in sydney february 11th. brillaint line up and the lawrence arms promises to be brilliant. tickets are currently on sale and are around the 30 dollar mark.

Thne the last of the 3 gigs i will post is the Strung Out/Strike Anywhere tour planned for may-june. Should be an absolute gem of a gig and it will hopefully be penned in for the gaelic club in surry hills.

looking to be a great start to next year for us punk fans

Rawk!

 

[Red Bear]

If the rumours of Bad Religion come true 8)
Would love to go to Rise Against, might be at Anti - flag as well.

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

anti flag are coming to canberra
but its an over 18 show
thank god for the fake id

also i heard a very dubious rumour that the misfits are coming down under this year. dont keep your fingers crossed but

 

[Dani]

i have also heard rumours the used will be here very soon

 

[elyod138]

The misfits broke up in 1983 man, the band now is just a money making gimmick led by Jerry Only.

More Detroit than Punk...But still worth seeing.

anti-flag would be awsome :!:

 

[An41]

i have also heard rumours the used will be here very soon

lets hope its true.

 

[An41]

sum 41 should be around early next year.

[please dont flame me you haters ]

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

well not the misfits then
jerry only, dez and marky ramone (they might be called the misfis i dunno)
probably not true
and yes, anti flag will kick ass

 

[fat_mike]

anti flag tickets have already gone on sale and i'm getting mine today. another rumoured band is the used.

the used are apparently making plans for an april tour down under with taking back sunday. should be interesting to see if they turn up

 

[ParraMatt]

NFG will be back, The used at the end of the year, Fall Out Boy at the end of the year and Strung Out

 

[fat_mike]

strung out will tour in april may which is talked about on their official website.

aparently the used planned tour has hit a bit of a snag as the used are asking for extra cash to bring out another band from the states to support them.

bad religion want to tour but cant find any promoters or anyone to hold the gigs. this is due to the bad religion folk breaking promises on planned tours more than once out here in oz. promoters like michael chugg are asking bad religion to sign a contract guarenteeing they play out here instead of running off abck to the states like they did in 2002. bad religion wont sign the contract so its been put on hold.

 

[LESStar58]

I was so pissed when Bad Religion cancelled Livid in 02...and they were gonna play at the Corner!

Also hearing some rumors about Social Distortion FINALLY touring. Most people say its on but soe people are telling me that they are asking for too much money.
Also a rumour that Tiger Army are coming out!

 

[fat_mike]

i've been told of the tiger army rumours aswell.

bad religion was gonna be brilliant at livid. they were the reason i was going.

propagandhi and no use for a name will tour this year on the back of their new albums being released. propagandhi will definetly be a must see to any punk fan. the best 3 piece i have ever seen. absolutely brilliant in music lyrics and sound.

 

[pennywisealfie]

ive been waiting for br for so long! first they pulled out of warped in 99 then livid in 02. i never get my hopes up over any rumor or any announcement over br anymore which is a shame coz they own. im going to make sure i get to LA next year to see all the south bar bands: pennywise, 1208, western waste, cigar etc.

i hope vandals come out soon

 

[LESStar58]

Well, Tiger Army were confirmed a cou0ple of weeks ago!

 

[fat_mike]

rise against friday night was easily the best gig i have ever been to. such an intimate but yet intense gig and the annandale is and was a brilliant setting for rise against to cut loose. tim mcilrath was the ultimate front man for a punk/hardcore act. he sung with such intensity and his easy simply pierced through everyone in attendance.

spoke to the drummer brandon after the gig and he said they are going to be heading back out to OZ in july. looks like they'll be able to come back and headline their own tour.

 

[fat_mike]

it's official strung out has confirmed and israel's useless I.D will be the main support. they play the gaelic club in surry hills april 10th. tickets go on sale friday the 18th of february.

cant wait to see these melodic punk hardcore giants
