The Frontier Touring Company has just announced the first Australian headline tour for alt heroes MGMT with shows slated for Perth, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.
I am excited to see these guys even though it will be a night surrounded by American Apparel and over-sized glasses. I am just as excited to see supports Tame Impala for the first time and to hear Luke Steele’s new stuff, which I missed at his sold our solo show at the Toff last Thursday.
December 6 - Belvoir Amphitheatre, Perth
December 9 - Enmore Theatre, Sydney
December 10 - The Tivoli, Brisbane
December 11 - The Palace, Melbourne
