From Hits and Pits...
Never have more privileged words be written than these. These words that are about to tell you that Bad Astronaut will be touring Australia as part of the Hits & Pits 2.0 Festival in November 2013. A person can almost count on one hand the amount of times that Bad Astronaut have hit the stage since 2005 and it’s an absolute honor that they will be doing so as part of this tour. It's likely to be the bands first and last jaunt around this country and is not to be missed.
Not to mention announcing that the quintessential pop-punk band of the 1990s, The Ataris will also be in tow. The Ataris have been writing songs about love and girls before there was money in it and are often cited as an influence on many of the pop-punk bands that are around today. Originally hailing from America’s mid-west the band, in it’s many incarnations, has been there and done that and, with their hearts still on their sleeves, intend on doing it again, in Australia this November.
In the red corner, representing the United Kingdom is the band with the drummer / singer combo...Snuff. At the start of this year these lovely larrikins release their first studio album in 10 years, suitably titled “5-4-3-2-1 Perhaps?” Perhaps they’ll play the new and old songs, perhaps they won’t. We’ll just need to be there to find out.
Not to mention the other amazing bands that have already signed up for Hits & Pits 2.0 including Boysetsfire, No Fun At All, Jughead’s Revenge & Off With Their Heads plus one more headliner to come. It’s certainly shaping up to be a huge November.
