Description:
Novocastrian not-quite-post-punk sensations Maxïmo Park embark on visit number three to our shores. Not content with raking in the dollars (ahem, pounds) from their previous two sell-out tours, the energetic five-piece will present a set of their finest songs so far to eager punters (which should really mean they keep songs from Our Earthly Pleasures to a minimum *retracts claws*).
If that isn’t enough, underrated Brisbane expats Flamingo Crash are in support, proving that their relocation to Melbourne may indeed have been fruitful for their careers. A larger venue than previous tours means that this show shouldn’t sell out, but get your ticket now just in case.
