Holiday In Australasia: Oz and NZ dates for Dead Kennedys
Here’s a test for the theory that old school underground bands can be re-tooled with new singers and still work: Dead Kennedys are returning to Australia and New Zealand this September for their first tour in seven years.
After a false start where the DKs were part of that clusterfuck Pandemonium fiasco only to be bumped off a pared-down bill, they are undertaking two shows in New Zealand and five in Australia.
The band is original members East Bay Ray (guitar) and Klaus Flouride (bass), alongside vocalist Ron “Skip” Greer, who has fronted the band since 2008, and drummer Steve Wilson, who joined following the passing of D.H. Peligro in 2022.
Almost needless to say they won’t be bringing Jello (but we’ll make the point for all the dummies anyway). There’s also no new album in tow – just a set full of classic punk songs like “Holiday in Cambodia”, “California Über Alles” and “Kill the Poor”.
