Sydney pop-punk superstars 5 Seconds Of Summer just interrupted the 2016 ARIA Awards broadcast with a live video message announcing the 2016 Australian leg of their Sounds Good Feels Good album tour.
Dubbed their Sound Live Feels Live tour (geddit?), the 5SOS boys will play Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena on Thursday 29th September, Brisbane’s Riverstage on Sunday 2nd October and Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on Tuesday 4th October.
The boys unveiled the news to the ARIA audience in a live video message, holding up a low budget tour poster, while dressed to the nines in animal onesies. Observe:
