Fatboy Slim Announces One-Off DJ Set At Revolver Upstairs

As Fatboy Slim readies himself to launch his latest Australian tour this evening, the English producer has added one extra date to his current trek.

The Fatboy Slim Loves Australia tour officially kicks off in Perth tonight, with a headline date at Perth's Langley Park. From there, he'll visit Bowral's Centennial Vineyards, Sydney's Roundhouse, Peter Lehmann Wines in the Barossa Valley, Geelong's My Duneed Estate, and wrapping it all up with a date at Sirromet Wines in Mount Cotton.

Along the way, he’ll also be performing at the Crown Lakeside Festival as part of the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix, but on Wednesday, March 19th he’ll be heading along to his old haunt, Revolver Upstairs in Prahran.

Tickets to his in-the-round gig at Revs went on sale today and have already sold out, but punters are advised that a limited second release will be available on the door on the night. But due to the high demand, it’s advisable to turn up early.

It’s not the first time that Fatboy Slim has played at Revs, with his 2023 visit also bringing with it a one-off date at the iconic nightspot. Other famed musicians have also hit up the famed club during their visits, with Fred again.. doing the same back in early 2024.

Late last year, Fatboy Slim indicated that there might not be a whole heap of recorded music coming out in the future, with the producer revealed he’d lost his “passion” for making new gear.

“The thing is, you can’t make music unless you’re absolutely passionate about it and it drives you from the moment you wake up in the morning,” he said. “I just don’t seem to feel like that any more. I feel like that about DJing and about putting on things like this, but I’ve kind of lost my passion for making music.”

“For five years, I tried to beat myself up about it and go, ‘You should be doing this’,” he added. “But then I thought, ‘Well, everybody likes my DJing and I enjoy that more, so I’ll do that’. I’m hoping that one day the passion will come back.”

Tickets to Fatboy Slim’s current Australian tour are on sale now.
