Overview

It’s a sad fact of life that we can’t all be Australian National Treasures like Rowland S. Howard. Sure, you can start a band â€" but it won’t be The Birthday Party. Of course, you can write some songs â€" but they won’t sound like Come Fall. And by all means, make some friends â€" but I’ll bet they’re not Thurston Moore and Lydia Lunch.

Oh, don’t look so glum! You’re fine as you are. Besides, the next best thing to actually being Rowland S. Howard is seeing him perform, and come Thursday October 22 you can do just that. In his first Australian gig since appearing at All Tomorrow’s Parties at the request of his old pal (and former Birthday Party and Bad Seeds band-mate) Nick Cave, Howard will perform select songs from his 20-odd year career, as well as from his upcoming album Pop Crimes.
