Everclear Announce Competition For Aussie Support Slots

Portland alt-rockers Everclear are asking for Australian bands to pitch themselves as supports.

Everclear

Art Alexakis and his Everclear brothers are touring Australia in October, and rather than get whichever supports are designated, they want to choose themselves.

So, if you think your band would be the perfect opener for Everclear in Coolangatta, Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth, head over to the KillRockStar Entertainment Facebook page and hit ‘like’, then submit your band.

They’ll come up with a 15 act shortlist for each city, then open up the voting. Fans of your band can head over to the same Facebook page and vote for you, then the top three highest voted acts will be presented to Mr Alexakis and he’ll hand-pick his favourites.

Applications are open right now, and run until next Thursday 23 August. Public voting will run from Monday 27 August to Friday 7 September and then, within a week, the winners will be announced.

Good luck!

Wednesday 10 October – Cooly Hotel, Coolangatta
Thursday 11 October – HiFi, Brisbane

The Libertines by Mary Boukouvalas
The Libertines, Reverend and the Makers, The Forum, Tuesday 15th April, 2025

In 2004, The Libertines toured Australia for the first time, without Pete Doherty, due to his drug addictions. When the rest of the band toured Japan, feeling betrayed he burgled Carl Barat’s flat and was jailed for six months. Since then, Doherty has toured with the band notably in 2018, where they also played the Forum and, on this sold-out show, clearly devoid of drugs and shenanigans of the past, the two albeit more mature founding members Doherty and Barat have well and truly buried the hatchet.
