News: The Cruel Sea announce Australian tour dates!
The Cruel Sea and their frankly unique blend of intoxicating wares are going to romance up a storm on the Gold Coast with two special shows at the Coolangatta Hotel and as part of the highly desirable lineup at Meredith’s Golden Plains Festival.
You’d be well advised to catch these shows if you’re in the area as The Cruel Sea is these days a rarefied entity that exists technically, though barely so. A new album has been threatened or hinted at on occasion, but this ARIA Award-winning Aussie institution is happy with its sporadic, if somewhat mysterious existence. The Cruel Sea in all their ruff-and-tumble-gumbo-glory know in their hearts when the time is right… and the ride’s in March.
Tour dates are:
Saturday, March 6, Coolangatta Hotel – Quicksilver Pro Weekend
Womadelaide 2010 The Armada, Public Opinion Afro Orchestra, Ethiopiques, Babylon Circus and Ojos de Brujo live @ Botanic Park, Adelaide, SA (5-8 March 2010)
Future Music Festival 2010 Empire of the Sun, Franz Ferdinard, Prodigy, Way Out West and more live @ Sydney, NSW (March 2010)
I remember seeing Blondie at the Falls Fest in 98. Brilliant. But as a kid my parents would take us to a lot of festivals. I remember running around dancing, annoying people, stealing things, so much fun.
Ideal Lineup? AC DC, Stevie Wonder, Jackson 5, Oscar Peterson, Garth Brooks, Gunners, Roni Size, Ravi Shakar.
