Everybody rip it up – well, possibly if they decide to chuck it on the setlist – because Aussie rap-rock band 28 days are getting their original lineup together for a milestone show targeted at diehard fans.
Original 28 Days members Jay Dunne, Simon Hepburn, Adam Bomber and Damian Gardiner will reunite for their first live show together in more than 20 years to perform their 1998 self-titled debut album and 1999’s Kid Indestructible EP in full.

The gig will be a one-night-only event at Brunswick’s Stay Gold venue on Saturday 4th February, with support from locals GameOver and No Grace. In a post on Facebook, the band promised an “epic occasion”:
“February 4th @ Stay Gold in Melbourne we will be playing our self titled album and the Kid Indestructible ep in full,” they wrote. “This will be the first time in over 20 years that the original lineup of Jay, Simon, Adam Bomber and Damo have played together. Joining us to make this one epic occasion will be GameOver and No Grace.”
28 Days’ debut album was released in 1998 via Stubble Records, prior to the release of their better known sophomore LP Upstyledown in 2000, which contained hits like ‘Rip It Up’, ‘Sucker’ and ‘Song For Jasmine’.
28 Days have been back on the live circuit this year, with performances at Uncaged Festival and some upcoming co-headlining tour dates with Bodyjar.
