The Tumbleweed line-up will feature all five original members, the same that brought you ‘Sundial’, ‘Hang Around’ and ‘Stoned’ in the psychedelic 90s.

Geelong’s ‘Frowning Clouds’ will also perform for Dig It Up Sydney.

Melbourne will be treated to Rob Younger’s The New Christs, The Crusaders and Harry Howard (Crime & The City Solution, These Immortal Souls).

However, Dig It Up is not just about serious music business. There will also be funny business. Did you know that Hard-Ons bass player Ray Ahn is also a comedian? Ray doesn’t tell jokes, he tells stories and he will be storytelling in Sydney.

Bruce Griffith runs the Aberrant record label. There has to be a few gags in that job. He’ll be telling them for Dig It Up Sydney as well.

Melbourne will feature Melbourne’s own Dave O’Neil.

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.
