Dust off your flat caps and dig out your Vans shoes as one of Australia’s most beloved punk rock acts, The Porkers, hit the road for a mammoth 14 date tour across the nation in celebration of the 25th Anniversary of their landmark album, Hot Dog Daiquiri.
Skanking rhythms mixed with punchy punk choruses, some funk and reggae, some Aussie pub rock and a distinctive Novocastrian sense of humour. Whats not to love?
After leaving no stone unturned in Australia, the 7 piece behemoth headed for the US and across that infamous Summer of ’99 appeared on the Vans Warped Tour from east to west. Playing alongside Eminem, Black Eyed Peas, Ice-T, as well as Suicidal Tendencies, Pennywise, Blink 182 and many more. In 2004 the ‘Men of Pork’ toured Japan where they recorded the Live at Nakanoshima album. That same year they dropped Swinging Like Tiger Woods which foretold the story of the pro golfer’s fall from grace, 3 years before it happened!
In 2024, The Porkers are as tight as ever and just as shocked as you are that Hot Dog Daiquiri was released 25 years ago! The Porkers have hand selected a spectacular bunch of support bands to make the shows that much porksome! Find a partner who is your Designated Drinker buddy and get down to one of the shows. It’s going to be a blast!
