NOFX have named the acts who’ll be warming up the stage for their final Australian tour in January 2024. A stack of local bands will be doing the honours at each stop on the pop-punk daddies’ farewell lap, including favourites Frenzal Rhomb, Bodyjar and Clowns.
NOFX have six shows locked in on the east coast early next year, playing two shows each in Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne.
Clowns – ‘THANKS 4 NOTHING‘
The Sydney show on Saturday, 20th January will see Bodyjar and Charlotte & The Harlots on support duties, while Frenzal Rhomb and I Heard They Suck At Conversation!! will do the honours the next night.
Brisbane is getting Frenzal Rhomb and Flangipanis on night one and The Bennies and VOIID on night two. Melbourne will cop Bodyjar and Something Something Explosion on Friday, 26th January and Clowns and Fever Shack on Saturday, 27th January.
As for the headliners themselves, NOFX have announced that the first shows in each city will feature tracks from their Wolves In Wolves’ Clothing, Punk In Drublic, and The War On Errorism LPs, while the second dates will feature songs from White Trash, Two Heebs And A Bean, So Long And Thanks For All The Shoes, and The Decline. The group have also vowed that no setlist will be exactly the same.
The Aussie shows form part of NOFX’s wider farewell tour – billed as the ’40 Years 40 Cities 40 Songs Per Night’ tour – after the band told fans in September last year they’d be breaking up.
“This is not a final tour like Mötley Crüe or Black Sabbath,” NOFX’s Fat Mike said in a press statement. “These are the very last shows NOFX will ever be playing. We are gonna play with all our hearts…With all our joy… And then we are done. We are done done.”
In the course of their 40-year career, NOFX have become one of the most influential punk groups of all time. Formed in 1983, they found fame in the ’90s with albums like White Trash, Two Heebs And A Bean and Punk In Drublic.
