Scottish rockers, Simple Minds will be coming to Australia at the end of next year as part of their 40 Years of Hits Tour along with some A Day on the Green dates.
Simple Minds will hit up all the usual suspects for A Day on the Green and they’ll be playing Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena and Sydney’s First State Super Theatre.
They’ll be bringing Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark along for both tours, and our own Eurogliders will join them for their A Day on the Green dates.
Simple Minds played A Day on the Green back in 2017 with B52’s.
Frontman, Jim Kerr says, “It’s been said that Simple Minds has a love affair with Australia and I think that’s true.”
Check out all the dates and ticket information below — and have a listen to ‘Don’t You Forget About Me’, what a tune.
