The 2024 Cold Chisel ‘The Big Five-O’ tour has sold record in record numbers with 150,000 tickets across 16 shows selling out within hours of going on sale.
“We’ve been completely blown away by the public response today”, said Cold Chisel frontman, Jimmy Barnes. “We know a lot of people missed out and will be feeling disappointed, but the demand has been bigger than we’ve ever seen for any of our other tours. We’re now scrambling to try and add a few more gigs in late November so hopefully we’ll have some more news about that in the coming week.”
Cold Chisel is:
Jimmy Barnes – Vocals
Ian Moss – Guitars & Vocal
Steve Prestwich – Drums (RIP 2011)
Phil Small – Bass
Don Walker – Piano & Organ
Charley Drayton – Drums (since 2011)
This week the Chisel story was told on Australian Story:
Cold Chisel and Jimmy Barnes almost tagged teamed in 1984. Chisel’s final single of the original era ‘Flame Trees’ and Jimmy’s first solo single ‘No Second Prize’ were both released in August 1984.
‘No Second Prize’ debuted in the Australian chart on 30 August 1984.
Cold Chisel ‘Flames Trees’ entered the chart one week later on 6 September 1984.
The launch of Jimmy’s solo career kept Chisel active on Australian radio playlists for the rest of the 80s and maintained a Chisel presence that only grew after they disbanded.
