The Hard-Ons kicked off their I’m Sorry Sir, That Riff’s Been Take tour – their first tour with new singer Tim Rogers – with three sold out shows on the weekend, only to hit a hurdle yesterday. The group issued the following statement this morning: “We regret to advise that the band has unfortunately been struck with Covid, with one of us testing positive earlier today, so under current Public Health Orders they’re required to self-isolate. As a result, we’ve had to reschedule this week’s shows. These performances will however proceed on the following dates. Existing ticket holders do not need to do anything as tickets will automatically apply for the new date.
With the NSW shows moved to June, the tour will pick up next week. Shows in Canberra, Adelaide, Geelong and Melbourne will proceed as scheduled. The run of dates and supports is now as follows below.
