The Melvins Australian Shows with Trevor Dunn & Mike Patton
Not sure how I missed these but I just bought my tix to the annandale show. The melvins will be playing a couple of shows in Australia this month – The Annandale in Sydney (Thursday 22 Jan 2009) and The Ding Dong in Melbourne (Tuesday 27th January). They will be performing Houdini in it’s entirety and will feature Trevor Dunn on Bass and special guest Mike Patton.
Press Release:
“Almost 25 years, over 25 albums and still counting, the Melvins are considered one of the godfathers of sludge metal whom heavily influenced the Seattle grunge scene back in the 90’s. With a cult following across the globe, and including original members King Buzzo (Guitar/vocals) and Dale Crover (Drums/vocals), the band has recently released ANOTHER studio album, ‘Nude With Boots’.
And in the news that their Australian fans have been waiting for, this new release has inspired the boys to hit the road again! So on Thursday 22nd January, in a VERY special, VERY intimate show at Sydney’s Annandale Hotel – get ready to experience the Melvins performing their classic album ‘HOUDINI’ – in its entirety!! This will be their ONLY Sydney show, and with a line-up of the one ‘n only Buzz Osborne, Dale Crover & Trevor Dunn (Mr Bungle) on bass…Oh my goddddd!! www.myspace.com/themelvins“
