Everyone’s favourite Russell Crowe and Kyle and Jackie O antagonising punks Frenzal Rhomb have just announced their return to Australian stages this summer with their Friendless Summer tour set to kick off in December running through early January.
Famous for hits like Punch In The Face and Never Had So Much Fun, the Aussie punk rock royalty are eager to get back in front of an audience, the current social climate begging for some tongue in cheek punk lampooning from the troupe. Sure to bring their characteristic crazy antics and on stage debauchery, and with an A-list support from Clowns at all dates, tickets are sure to move fast.
With drummer Gordy Freeman still recovering from a broken arm he incurred after a failed stage diving attempt earlier this year, there is no word yet on whether he will be re-joining the band for the tour. Yet with a month or two still to go before they hit the road, here’s hoping he’s healed up in time.
We have the full details here below, but for the time being you can reminisce (assuming you are old enough which you probably aren’t) with this video of the band playing at Sydney’s non defunct Big Day Out in 2001, preceded by an interview with a pre-Australian Idol and still pony tailed Andrew G.
UPDATE 29/10/15 11.45am: According to this tweet, it looks like Gordy Freeman will still be out of action and the tour will instead feature a “borrowed drummer”:
We're bundling up our bung eyes, broken limbs and borrowed drummer and heading down the melting asphalt. Come along! pic.twitter.com/iOnVSOyBko
