All Ages:
Now, this is the news that I’m sure many of you are awaiting. On Saturday September 25 the prodigious Parkway Drive will throw at our city once more their first class and elemental brew of metalcore. Deep Blue: the Australian tour is all in support of their new album Deep Blue, product of esteemed producer Joe Barresi. The album, rumoured to be unlike anything Parkway has ever done before, will be released on Friday June 25. Embarking with Parkway on this mammoth tour is the most dominating metalcore act to ever come from the USA, of course The Devil Wears Prada. But the lineup still gets better – Californian band The Ghost Inside and 50 Lions will also be accompanying Parkway along Australian highways. Tickets cost $27 (+BF) from Ticketek and are on sale now. But I’d act fast – from my knowledge many people had purchased tickets within 20 minutes of them being available. All the excitement of this unparalleled lineup can be had at The Royal Theatre (otherwise known as The National Convention Centre) when doors fly open at 7pm.
On Friday June 18 you can catch thriving Australian rapcore band Deez Nuts on the This One’s For You tour, obviously in support of their new album, This One’s For You. They’ll be playing their new material for us to enjoy live for the first time at the Weston Creek Community Centre with ‘special guests’ that STILL appear to be anonymous! But rest assured that the gig will be an outstanding one regardless. Tickets cost $21.50 from Oztix or Landspeed Records.
The Axis Youth Centre in Queanbeyan will be playing host to Sydney’s Vegas in Ruins, Queensland hardcore band Time Has Come, Melbourne’s Trainwreck and our very own Reigner and Knives to the Throne. Tickets to this one cost just $12 at the door at 2pm on Sunday June 20. Also at the Axis, a week later on Sunday June 27 you can see Melbourne five-piece Carpathian on what they have called the Wanderlust tour. With an absolutely massive lineup of supporting acts, including Melbourne/Byron Bay boys 50 Lions, BLKOUT, Ghost Town, Persist and Something Must Break, this will be one spectacular night that you cannot afford to miss. This one costs $15 and as usual starts at 2pm. The Axis Youth Centre is on a freaking roll at the moment!
Don’t forget that tickets for the John Butler Trio at the Royal Theatre are on sale NOW! I’m sure that most of you would have at least a rough idea of how fast these tickets will sell and for those who have not a clue… these tickets will sell out fast. The spine-tingling root reggae sensations Blue King Brown will have you up, dancing and sweating all over each other before the John Butler Trio even step out on stage. The magic won’t commence until Wednesday September 15, but you can and should get your tickets now – they cost just $70 from any Ticketek outlet.
And finally, on Thursday July 8, if you manage to quickly grab tickets, you can see The Amity Affliction live at the Woden Basketball Stadium on the highly anticipated Youngbloods tour. US band Misery Signals, Melbourne’s Confession and Flood of Red from the UK are all going along for the ride in support of Amity’s brand new album Youngbloods. Tickets cost $33.50 from Moshtix.
