City Riots Supporting Smashing Pumpkins

Adelaide’s own City Riots have earned the coveted support slot for the Smashing Pumpkins upcoming Aussie tour.

The indie act were handpicked by lead singer Billy Corgan to support the iconic rock band at dates around the country.

No doubt City Riots will be a well oiled machine by the time the October tour rolls around, having just wrapped up their own national tour. So make sure you turn up early to support the local talent at these Smashing Pumpkins shows!

12 October 2010 – PCEC Riverside Theatre, Perth
13 October 2010 – AEC Theatre, Adelaide
15 October 2010 – Festival Hall, Melbourne
16 October 2010 – Big Top @ Luna Park, Sydney

Duran Duran, Smashing Pumpkins, QOTSA Play Adelaide

Adelaide may have missed out on the V Festival, but that doesn’t mean they’ll miss some of the event’s biggest names. 80s pop icons Duran Duran and 90s emo pioneers Smashing Pumpkins are making the trip to South Australia. As an added bonus for Pumpkins fans, Queens of the Stone Age will also appear at this very special show.

Duran Duran will play all their classic tracks and songs from their newie Red Carpet Massacre on April 1 at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre. The big Smashing Pumpkins/Queens of the Stone Age show will play the Ent Cent on the following night. Yes, that’s right: two massive shows on in the middle of the week. I can imagine there’ll be some very bleary-eyed workers in Adelaide!

Tickets for both shows will go on sale to the public at 9 am on Monday 11 February from Ticketek.
