August 11, 2019, 5 years ago
Toronto rocker Danko Jones has checked in with the following update:
"The 200th podcast episode! (on Spotify/iTunes/Soundcloud). I've been doing my podcast for eight years and have finally arrived at the bicentennial 200th episode. With it comes hot new artwork by Jeremy Bruneel. Instead of going down the usual self-indulgent masturbatory retrospective, I want to showcase rock bands who, like us, have been waving the flag for rock, regardless of trend."
Danko Jones (the band) have checked in with some important news for their Australian fans:
"Due to a last-minute scheduling conflict we have been forced to postpone our Australian shows that were due to take place in May / June to new dates in September. We apologise for the inconvenience. Existing tickets will be honoured at all rescheduled dates."
The new dates are as follows:
September
5 - Melbourne, Australia - Stay Gold
6 - Brisbane, Australia - The Zoo (new venue)
7 - Sydney, Australia - Crowbar
On the heels of the successful launch of their new album, A Rock Supreme, Danko Jones has announced plans to join Volbeat on an extensive European tour, which kicks off September 23 in Newcastle, England. Tickets go on sale May 24.
The tour - many shows of which take place in arenas - is not the first time the like-minded groups have crossed paths. In 2013, Danko Jones supported Volbeat on an American tour, and in 2016, Danko Jones' namesake frontman Danko Jones contributed guest vocals to Volbeat's #1 Active Rock hit “Black Rose”. He later joined Volbeat to perform the song at their 2017 concert in Copenhagen, Denmark, which was captured on the recently-released Blu-Ray and DVD Let's Boogie! Live From Telia Parken. More recently, Jones joined Volbeat in London, Ontario (Canada) on May 9 for another performance of “Black Rose”.
