Hoodoo Gurus Host Party – We’re Invited

How would it be if you could program your own mini-festival – and then be the headline act? Such is the fun of being Hoodoo Gurus. The great Australian band will celebrate their 30th anniversary by doing just that.

And while it will be a lot of fun for the band of eternal music fans, its going to be absolutely unmissable for the rest of us.

‘Dig It Up! The Hoodoo Gurus Invitational’ will feature Hoodoo Gurus performing their debut album ‘Stoneage Romeos’ from start to finish, a whole stack of guests including Redd Kross, Died Pretty and The Fleshtones and a new compilation album titled ‘Gold Watch: 20 Golden Greats’ featuring a new song ‘Use-By Date’.

In addition to those bands some of the other guests playing at this guitar rock moveable mecca include The Sonics, the 5.6.7.8.’s. Royal Headache, The Lovetones and Hard-Ons. Depending where you are the line-up varies in size and composition.
