Sunday afternoon, winter is in retreat and finals fever is taking over in Melbourne.

The T Bones are back down at the Westwood with a few new songs we’ve been working on as well as the old faves.Spanning the great rural/urban divide…songs of heartbreak & isolation, lost love, footy teams that never win and cars that just won’t start…

You know what you have to do…  get em on, get down there and get going!!

Mean Jeans arrive in Australia for the first time ever, ready to rip dates supporting The Chats and headlining gigs of their own, equipped with a Chats split 7-inch of KISS covers and a fierce commitment to partying.

Mean Jeans is a trio of punk rock party animals that began in Portland, OR around 2007, consisting of Billy Jeans, Jeans Wilder, and Junior Jeans. More adept at goofing off than playing instruments, they’ve still managed to make a name for themselves with raucous live shows, a hefty discography of records on Dirtnap and Fat Wreck Chords, and a fierce commitment to the art of partying. After a dozen releases fusing pop punk like Ramones and The Riverdales with garage punk like Marked Men and The Spits, the group literally made an album of unsolicited jingles about beer, crummy chain restaurants, defunct paper supply companies and windshield wiper fluid. What more do you need to know?
