Glen Matlock, Earl Slick & Slim Jim Phantom Unite For Aus Tour

Men with LOTS of stories

A trifecta of rock's favourite men, Sex Pistol Glen Matlock, Stray Cat Slim Jim Phantom and Bowie and Lennon guitarist Earl Slick have announced the Men Of No Shame tour, where the trio head our way for a gritty, unmissable tour that'll bring to mind the craziest rock moments of the '70s and '80s.

All three men have countless stories of debauchery behind them — Matlock was the original bassist in Sex Pistols and is credited with penning 10 of the 12 songs on the infamous Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols. Meanwhile, Slim Jim was rockabilly royalty Stray Cats' drummer for decades, while Earl Slick was known for playing guitar for Robert Smith, Tim Curry, Yoko Ono and many more.

The great part is, you can actually ask the men about these stories. With no shame, they'll be taking part in Q&A sessions before each show, with no subject off the table.

The Men Of No Shame will perform first in Gold Coast on Friday, 26 February, Brisbane on Saturday, 27 February, Sydney on Sunday, 28 February, Newcastle on Wednesday, 2 March, Adelaide on Thursday, 3 March, Melbourne on Friday, 4 March and finally Esternwick on Saturday, 5 March.
