Australian rockabilly/punk-inspired band The Living End will play all six of their albums back-to-back during multi-night stands in five Australian cities toward the end of the 2012.
The band has never played a complete album in a live setting prior to these shows. The concerts will take place in Perth, Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne, and although the band plays larger venues in their home territory, each of the Retrospective Tour dates will take place in an intimate setting, including Melbourne’s famous rock venue the Corner Hotel.
Every city gets seven nights: one each for the albums State of Emergency, Modern Artillery, The Ending is Just the Beginning Repeating, Roll On and White Noise, and two nights for The Living End, their 1998 debut.
For fans wishing to catch all six albums in a particular city, the band is offering The Big Red Ticket. Tickets for individual shows also will be available. The shows take place in November and December, so fans in the U.S. and Europe have a bit of time to lock in their travel plans.
