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

Tickets go on sale August 16 through ticketek.com.au

    Yeah that really sucks, i agree.

    I’ll email the Frontier now and see what their thoughts are on an all ages show. If there is enough support maybe it will get up. Who’s in?

    I just spoke to the touring company and Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne are sold out with only a few Perth tickets still left. They have no comment on further shows at this stage but I have an inkling of where they are likely to be – will knock up a more detailed post tomorrow morning.

    One of my friends was going to buy a ticket to the Sydney one and come down from Brisbane but she missed out this morning. Guess that means we’re going to have to kneecap some scenester outside and steal their ticket. Sigh.

    MGMT Sydney show was already sold out before the public sale. I got an email for presale tickets a few days before the public release and I still missed out :( .
