The long-awaited tour from indie legends Weezer is getting closer and closer and by January we'll be so very primed for some Pinkerton sing-a-longs that anyone who brushes by us will worry about our shameful level of sexual activity. If you don't know that album that's gonna sound weird, but that's your fault.

Anyway, two bands have been given one of the greatest honours that could be bestowed upon any group, being awarded the support slot for the Weezer tour and unsurprisingly they're two pretty high-profile acts.

Cloud Control haven't done too much around these parts for a while, but we couldn't think of much of a better return than to be playing four shows alongside the mighty Weezer! The AMP winning band will be main support for each show on the tour.

Kind of contrarily, Ball Park Music have been slogging it out in Australia over the past couple of years and such tireless work seems to be paying dividends for the group, who release their second album Museum real soon! They embark on these enormous shows with new material and heaps of energy and with a rapidly growing fan base geeing them on.

Weezer, Cloud Control and Ball Park Music play the following shows:

Sunday 13 January – Brisbane Entertainment Centre
Wednesday 16 January – Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Melbourne
Saturday 19 January – Sydney Entertainment Centre
Wednesday 23 January – Perth Arena
