About the night
For the first time ever, American punk pioneers FEAR are heading to Australia this June and July, bringing nearly five decades of volume, controversy and pure attitude to stages across the country. Formed in Los Angeles in 1978, FEAR didn’t just help shape punk rock - they defined its confrontational spirit. In 1981, the band made history as the first punk act to appear on national television in North America with their infamous Halloween performance on Saturday Night Live, courtesy of John Belushi. The chaotic set left the studio in shambles, landed the band on a permanent ban list, and was later ranked the #1 musical performance in the show’s history by Rolling Stone. Their landmark debut album has sold over 500,000 copies and is widely regarded as one of the ten greatest punk records of all time. Frontman Lee Ving has also carved out an acclaimed acting career, with appearances in Flashdance, Clue, Streets of Fire and more than 30 other film and television productions. Ving is also a key member of Sound City Players, appearing in the 2013 documentary and accompanying soundtrack project led by Dave Grohl. After 40+ years of influence, chaos and cultural impact, Australian audiences will finally experience FEAR live for the very first time.
