The Hard-Ons first national tour with Tim Rogers on vocals has stalled with one of the band members testing positive to Covid.

In a statement the band announced, “We regret to advise that the band has unfortunately been struck with Covid, with one of us testing positive earlier today, so under current Public Health Orders they’re required to self-isolate. As a result, we’ve had to reschedule this week’s shows. These performances will however proceed on the following dates. Existing ticket holders do not need to do anything as tickets will automatically apply for the new date”.

The shows for Sydney, Avalon, Newcastle and Wollongong have been moved to June.

With the NSW shows moved to June, the tour will proceed next week with the shows in Canberra, Adelaide, Geelong and Melbourne going ahead as planned.
