UPDATE: SUPPORTS ANNOUNCED! For THE ART, it began in Newtown, Sydney where their edgy, fast-paced live shows gained not only local success, but also caught the attention of LA booker and ex Guns N’ Roses manager, Vicky Hamilton.
On the back of relentless touring supporting the likes of Them Crooked Vultures, Marilyn Manson and The Pixies amongst others, THE ART are returning to Australia with their latest album in tow ‘Here Comes The War’.
THE SPANDEX ARMY HAS SHOWN ITS MIGHT!
It took 13 minutes for STEEL PANTHER to completely sellout their Melbourne show at The Palace. The show moved to up to Festival Hall with nearly 3 times the capacity and sold out again!
Shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Adelaide (YES! Adelaide!) were not far behind in the expediency with which “ticket allocations” were “exhausted” and the flood of e-grief that poured into the promoter and band members’ inboxes.
So when we tell you, Sydney & Adelaide fans, that the band have decided to give their late buying fans a 2nd and final chance, we do so with caution. Tickets are limited. STEEL PANTHER’s pulling power on the other hand seems limitless. Don’t fuck around. There won’t be another chance.
Perth fans please note your show has moved a day forward and all tickets remain valid.

STEEL PANTHER are “Crude, rude, filthy, and more infectious than a bad case of herpes”. – Revolver Mag.
For STEEL PANTHER, bringing the halcyon days of metal back to the world is not a job…it’s a mission statement, a modus operandi, and a way of life.
In their first ever headline tour of Australia, STEEL PANTHER are primed for an all-out assault on the senses with Michael Starr commenting “I can’t wait to get my balls out in some fresh Australian air!” and Stixx adding ”I can’t wait to come to Australia and rock all the genitals off your women then they’ll know what America tastes like!”
They have remained rock’s best kept secret for decades — prowling the Sunset Strip with weekly residencies while keeping the sleazy flame of rock ‘n’ rock alive…”But no longer. The ferocious Steel Panther has been let out of its iron cage and has only one mission: to roar with the tiger-like growl and strut with the sensual prance of glam rock n’ roll from the halcyon days of the 1980s.” – Metal As Fuck
With their brand new album ‘Balls Out’ in tow and having just been nominated for Metal Hammer’s “Best International Band” Award, STEEL PANTHER will be bringing their full live show extravaganza to Australia this October!
Tickets go on sale Thursday 17 May, 9am.
