The official Falls statement reads “Due to unforeseen circumstances the Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs tour to Australia this December has been postponed; disappointed to miss the festival TEED will be back next year to make it up to the Falls Music & Arts Festival’s audience”.

There isn’t a lot written about Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. Even his Facebook page says only “Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs swings between overt musicality and scarily on-point dancefloor sensibility, ripping up clubs around the globe with his live show of bizarre instruments, glitter cannons and of course… dancing dinosaurs”.
