The most legendary pop punk cover band that ever lived, Me First And The Gimme Gimmes are on their way back to Australia this October for their first tour since 2010.

The band have been so hugely adored by Australian punks since their first records in the 1990s and they remain one of the most fun bands you'll ever see – their rambunctious takes on some of the biggest hits in the history of music always brimming with life and just asking for big old-fashioned sing-alongs.

The band's last couple of releases are particularly cool; 2011 EP Sing In Japanese is exactly what it sounds like, the band tackling six Japanese language tracks while another EP released earlier that year – Go Down Under – has them playing songs by INXS, the Easybeats, Olivia Newton-John, Rick Springfield and Air Supply.
