Mad Caddies, Good Riddance, A Wilhelm Scream and Voodoo Glow Skulls - and that's just for starters.

More Mad Caddies More Mad Caddies

It is time to hark back to your younger days, your more rebellious days, the days where you hated your parents and they probably hated you too. The Hit & Pits Festival is travelling around the country in March and April of next year, bringing some classic 1990s ska and punk rock bands (okay, a few more modern ones as well) to venues everywhere to ensure maximum sing-alongs and general good times.

They've secured a whole heap of overseas acts, a few who haven't been here for a while, as well as some kick arse Aussie talent that is frankly worth the price of admission alone. All bands will have decent set lengths as the venues will open a little earlier than at your regular shows.

How about this for a line up?
