[happy friggin camper]

I had read on another forum that Patton and crew will be touring australia in December.

Anybody actually heard a whisper of this?

Fucking A.

Melvins absolutely killed it last time they were here. And the whole patton part of the equation, need not be explained. Cannot fucking wait for this one.

The cool part is they won't even have to change gear between sets.

 

[KoichCPA]

But changing gear is beer time.

 

[Goreripper]

So they can just drink beer instead. Simple.

 

[KoichCPA]

Mike Patton doesn't drink, so he can sit there and play tiddly winks.

Excellent!

 

[KoichCPA]

They've been taken down from the Ipecac site, I dunno if this is going ahead.

I've heard from reliable sources that it's all a goer. Can't wait. I'm really looking forward to seeing the Melvins. I missed them on the Tool tour. Fucking BEC and it's no drinking policy. Damn them!
