Controversy? Hallowed be thy name in show business. The Saints ’73-‘78 tickets are moving faster than Ed Kuepper’s downstroke with shows in Brisbane, Melbourne and Castlemaine selling out and two extra gigs added.
Brisbane sold out in one day which prompted the addition of another show. Melbourne has an extra date and capacity at Castlemaine was increased to meet demand before the House Full sign went up.
Supports have been confirmed and include relative new kids on the block Chimers, Parsnip and Alien Nosejob alongside veterans Kim Salmon & The Surrealists.
Meantime pre-orders for the deluxe 4-LP box set version of (I’m) Stranded (due this November) can be made here.
Featuring founding members; guitarist Ed Kuepper and drummer Ivor Hay, The Saints ’73-’78, will be joined by honorary Saints; singer Mark Arm of the legendary Mudhoney, bassist Peter Oxley of Sunnyboys fame and former The Birthday Party/Bad Seeds guitarist Mick Harvey as they recreate the sounds of The Saints hugely influential albums (I’m) Stranded (1977) Eternally Yours (1978) and Prehistoric Sounds (1978).
