Aussie Punk pioneers return to the stage after 25 years.

The band formed in Adelaide in 1983 and in little more than a year made quite an impression before lead singer Michael Farkas overdosed on Christmas Eve of 1984. Although he recovered after spending nine months in a coma, the band stopped performing - until now.

The band's original line-up (minus one) will play a series of gigs next month in support of a new anthology album To Hell 'n' Back, which is due to hit the shops on October 17.

Tour Dates:

Saturday, October 3
Squatters Arms, Adelaide, SA

Wednesday, October 7
The Loft, Warrnambool, VIC

Saturday, October 10
East Brunswick Club, Melbourne, VIC

Sunday, October 11
Missing Link, Melbourne, VIC
In-store appearance

Sunday, October 11
National Hotel, Geelong, VIC

Friday, October 16
Annandale Hotel, Sydney, NSW

Saturday, October 17
Hamilton Station Hotel, Newcastle, NSW
