The Dones “Farewell” Australian Tour
The Drones latest album “Wait Long By The River & The Bodies Of Your Enemies Will Float By” (In-Fidelity/Shock) continues to impress critics and music lovers alike. With the band about to head off to tour Europe indefinitely, they’ve put together a national “farewell” tour that’ll take in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Fremantle, and Adelaide in Aug/Sep. As worldwide recognition continues to grow, The Drones are about to sign with a UK record label that’ll not only ensure their album is available throughout Europe, but also provide them with a stack of media coverage, and an endless number of gigs. However, before they relocate to Berlin or London (or wherever?), The Drones plan to keep their growing legion of local admirers happy, with a barrage of rip-snorting live performances across the country that’ll be sure to prove them worthy of the media’s recent hyperbolic praise.
In Melbourne catch The Drones “farewell” gig at The Corner Hotel on Friday 26 August with special guests: The Devastations, SALMON (featuring Kim Salmon), Dynamo, and Tiger By The Tail (new band for Dave Thomas of Bored! fame). Tickets $16 + b/f (available now from The Corner Box Office - Ph: 9427 9198) or $20 at the door. Doors open 7.30pm - first band on at 8.00pm.
