Glam rock comedy act Steel Panther has announced an Australian tour after a two-year absence.
“Panther Panther Panther, Oi Oi Oi!!! It’s that time once again, Steel Panther have stolen their mom’s credit cards and bought flights to Australia,” the band said in a statement about the tour.
“On this tour Down Under, we are planning on rocking you so hard that you will need to make a doctor’s appointment to fix all the organs that will explode from the deep, penetrating joy of partying with these American heavy metal legends and world-class athletes.”
The ‘On the Prowl’ tour finds the ‘Gloryhole’ rockers playing five dates across the nation this October. Kicking things off in Perth at Metro City on Friday, October 18, Steel Panther then plays Adelaide’s AEC Theatre on Monday, October 21, Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on Wednesday, October 23, Brisnane’s Fortitude Music Hall on Thursday, October 24 before a final show at Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena on Saturday, October 26.

Forming in 2000, Steel Panther has found their niche as one of the funniest rock bands out there.
