ONE of Australia’s seminal nineties rock bands are set to roll through the state later this year celebrating more than thirty years.<\/p>\n

Chocolate Starfish is celebrating their milestone birthday with The Best of Everything national tour.<\/p>\n

Frontman Adam Thompson said the tour will see the group play a mix of large and small crowds.<\/p>\n

“We’re doing some big shows in grand venues like the State Theatre in Sydney, and will also do some smaller regional shows that will have a more intimate vibe, and include places close to our hearts like my home region of Shepparton,” he said.<\/p>\n

“Thirty years in, we know where our fans are, and the spaces we love to work. We can’t wait to hit the road. It’s a real pinch me moment when we walk out to huge crowds. “Our fan base is growing and I think that’s because we’ve evolved and give our fans a very physical, theatrical show.”<\/p>\n

The tour will see the group play 24 shows across four months, celebrating their greatest hits.<\/p>\n

Thompson said the band’s anniversary show is a testament to their longevity.<\/p>\n

“So many iconic Aussie bands were formed in the 80s and 90s and were an inspiration to us,” he said.<\/p>\n

“There’s not a huge list of them still performing regularly like we are, and with most of their long-term members. “We’re great mates and all love performing live; anyone who has been to a Starfish show can feel that.”<\/p>\n

Though not playing in Ballarat, Chocolate Starfish will perform at Horsham’s Town Hall on Saturday 14 September as well as Geelong’s The Playhouse on Saturday 12 October.<\/p>\n
