Seeing as it’s a Faith No More-fest in Australia at the moment, it seems like a good time to take a trip down memory lane and check out a Recovery interview with Mike Patton and Roddy Bottum when they were last in town, in 1997.

Thanks to mikepatton.cl

Ipecac recently tweeted news of a new Tango Saloon date:

“The Tango Saloon will be performing at 505 in Sydney, Australia on March 22, 2010.”

So for some reason Mike Patton loves rockin out with his cock out in Bris-Vegas. He pulled the same moves in Brissy on a Tomahawk tour a while back just a few days before this happened in London:

And now, Brisbane Soundwave fans were presented with this charming visage:
