Adelaide music fans were very disappointed recently when the Adelaide leg of the Hoodoo Gurus' Dig It Up! tour was cancelled. That tour's promoter nixed the show after deciding that ticket sales were too slow. While the Hoodoo Gurus had no influence over that decision (and having suffered losses themselves as a result of the cancellation), they immediately resolved to book a gig in Adelaide at the earliest opportunity.
Taking a cue from General MacArthur, the Gurus vowed to their Adelaide fans, "We shall return!".
The Gov are pleased to announce that the Hoodoo Gurus will be making good on that pledge this coming Queen's Birthday long weekend. On Sunday 9 June the Hoodoo Gurus will be performing at The Gov, playing the many hits and highlights of their distinguished career, all done in their inimitable style.
Also performing with the Hoodoo Gurus at The Gov that night will be Sydney's legendary garage rockers, the Lime Spiders, who only recently came out of retirement to take part in the Sydney Dig It Up! concert at The Enmore Theatre. The Spiders went on stage that night with all guns blazing and fans around Australia have been clamouring for the opportunity to see them ever since.
So, the Hoodoo Gurus AND the Lime Spiders will be going toe-to-toe at The Gov on Sunday 9 June, in the middle of the Queen's Birthday long weekend.
Nobody will be disappointed that night!
