The Screaming Jets have postponed their New South Wales shows until 2022 because of the #Gladyscluster ripping the state. However, New South Wales’ loss is a windfall for Queensland and Victoria.
The Screaming Jets were touring to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album ‘All For One’.
“It’s such a bloody disappointment that we can’t get to these NSW shows that we had planned for August, such is the current state of touring and border closures,” Dave Gleeson said in a statement. “Obviously the health and wellbeing of all of us is of paramount importance. On a brighter note, we have added 6 shows for Queensland and Victoria and we can’t wait to hit the road and play shows again, and to unleash ‘All For One’ on fans again!”
‘All For One’ was released on 19 April 1991. The album reached no 2 in Australia and was the 48th biggest selling album of the year. ‘All For One’ featured the no 4 single ‘Better’, now considered an Oz Rock classic. ‘Better’ was the 20th biggest selling single of 1991 in Australia.
