So in the aftermath of the Faith No More Australian tour, there have been loads of quality photo galleries emerging. Below are a few I have come across in my travels. If you know of any others, please post in the comments and I will update this post.

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

America’s Funny Man Neeeeeeiiiiil Hamburger will be supporting Faith No More alongside the Eagles of Death Metal, at the Sydney and Melbourne side shows on Feb 22, and 25th.

The comb-over sporting, tux wearing comedian played by Gregg Turkington, last spat humour (…literally) into the hungry faces of Patton fans at All Tomorrows Parties’ Nightmare Before Christmas,  2008.

With the FNM dates listed on his myspace, he will also be playing his own gig at the Toff in Town, Melbourne on Feb 23 with none other than Dr El Suavo. Get tickets for that night of magic, mayhem, hilarity and insult from moshtix.

Neil Hamburger and FNM… Australia, you’ve been warned!

Aaron Turner from Isis recently conducted a very nice little interview with the Soundwave guys where Aaron opens up about everything from touring to his first concert experience (Slayer). Check it out………..

Also finally the Isis side show details have been announced! They will have a brief run down the east coast of Australia during the soundwave festival tour, visiting Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne:

• February 18th Brisbane @ The Hi-Fi
• February 23rd Sydney @ Manning Bar
• February 25th Melbourne @ The Corner Hotel

Tix on sale tomorrow (20th November) at 9am. More info.

Thanks to fourth eye for the sidewave info

After stubbadub broke the news a few weeks ago, official word has finally confirmed that Faith No More will be performing two “sidewave” shows in Australia:

Feb 22, Hordern Pavilion, Sydney, Australia
Feb 25, Festival Hall, Melbourne, Australia

Also good news for our kiwi neighbours, they will also get two shows in Auckland and Wellington:

Feb 16 TSB Bank Arena Wellington, New Zealand
Feb 18 Vector Arena, Auckland, New Zealand

Dates are up on the FNM tour dates page and also announced via Billy on twitter:

“NEWS FLASH:TWO solo shows in Australia outside of Soundwave: SYDNEY Feb22, Hordern Pavilion…MELBOURNE Feb 25 – Festival Hall….And here comes New Zealand: WELLINGTON, Feb 16, TSB Bank Arena…and AUCKLAND, Feb 18, Vector Arena.“

Japanese noiseys Melt Banana will be heading to Australia in October but unfortunately will be only playing one show, at the Melbourne International Arts Festival. They play The Forum as part of Beck’s Rumpus Room on the 10th of October. Tickets are $15. More info

Pity they couldn’t add a few extra cities and make a tour of it while they were here!

America’s funnyman returns to Australian shores this month for a “Country Winners” tour and will also apparently be supporting a couple of well known punk outfits, Bad Religion and NOFX. Word on the street is Danny Heifetz will be manning the skins for the Country Winners shows.

UPDATE (from Prawn in comments):

“Just a note to anyone going to see Neil Hamburger in Sydney, the dates on his myspace page are wrong – The Drunken Spelling Bee at the Bald Faced Staf is on Saturday 3rd, the gig at the Manning Bar is on Friday 2nd (they’re listed as the other way round on his webpage).”

Direct from the band, Faith No More have confirmed to Stubbadub that there will be up to three Australian Faith No More “side” shows during the soundwave 2010 tour. This is great news for

No details about the when and where at this stage but I will keep you posted as news comes to hand.

As for a support, I would love to see Ipecac rockers Isis, who are joining Faith No More on the Soundwave tour, to pick up the supporting role.

Aussie stubb readers please feel free to speculate on gig details in the comments

Even though the official soundwave site has been majorly slashdotted, official word is out. Faith No More will return to Australian shores after over a decade! Also on the bill will be Janes Addiction, Clutch, Meshuggah and Ipecac metallers ISIS!!!.

Fingers crossed some “sidewave” Faith No More shows will be announced.
