With just under a month until The Screaming Jets drop the 30 Year Anniversary Edition of their groundbreaking debut album ALL FOR ONE, the band has today announced changes to their national touring schedule.
With the inability to predict when touring through wider NSW can resume in any normal fashion, it is with great disappointment that the band has postponed their NSW dates scheduled for August. They will look to reschedule in 2022 with further announcements to be made in due course – people are encouraged to hold on to their tickets as they will still be valid.
The locations in question are:
YOUNG SERVICES CLUB, YOUNG, NSW
BATHURST PANTHERS, BATHURST, NSW
BELMONT 16S, BELMONT, NSW
SAWTELL RSL, SAWTELL, NSW
CENTRAL HOTEL, SHELLHARBOUR, NSW
REVESBY WORKERS , REVESBY, NSW
In their place are 6 new shows across Queensland and Victoria:
THUR 26 AUG – KING’S BEACH TAVERN, KINGS BEACH, QLD
FRI 27 AUG – BEENLEIGH TAVERN, BEENLEIGH, QLD
FRI 10 SEPT – PIER BANDROOM, FRANKSTON, VIC
SAT 11 SEPT – VILLAGE GREEN, MULGRAVE, VIC
FRI 17 SEPT – CHELSEA HEIGHTS HOTEL, CHELSEA HEIGHTS, VIC
SAT 18 SEPT – PLAZA TAVERN, HOPPERS CROSSING, VIC
Dave Gleeson said today, “It’s such a bloody disappointment that we can’t get to these NSW shows that we had planned for August, such is the current state of touring and border closures. Obviously the health and wellbeing of all of us is of paramount importance. On a brighter note, we have added 6 shows for Queensland and Victoria and we can’t wait to hit the road and play shows again, and to unleash ‘All For One’ on fans again!”

The Screaming Jets took the Aussie music scene by the scruff of the neck back in 1990, emerging from Newcastle to give it a red hot shake! Before they had even signed their first record deal with rooArt Records, the Screaming Jets had already clocked up more than 200 live shows, won the ‘Triple J Battle Of The Bands’ competition and established themselves as an onstage, no holds barred, powerhouse of Aussie rock n roll.
At the time the hard rock music bible ‘Kerrang’ described front man Dave Gleeson as “a tattooed madman, hell on heels, he leaps around the stage like an epileptic in a minefield: a real horror show cross between Alex from Clockwork Orange and, in part, Mike Patton. Between songs his patter is a hilarious cocktail of equal parts vitriol and obscenity”.
In 1991 they released their debut album ‘All For One’, which peaked at #2 on the ARIA charts. The second single from the album, ‘Better’ was the song that introduced the band to the world and saw The Screaming Jets embark on their first world tour – to Europe, UK, USA and Canada.
“For a bloke from Cardiff, who’d spent a few years touring round Australia, to find himself on the other side of the world sharing the stage with the likes of Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, INXS, and yes, even a band room with Spinal Tap was something beyond my wildest imagination” says Dave Gleeson.
The relentless touring that followed the initial album release saw The Jets tour with iconic bands like The Angels, The Choirboys and Divinyls as well as headlining their own tours, and building a die-hard live fan base across Australia and the world.
Flash forward to 2021 and as a 30th year anniversary celebration, and a tip of the hat to where it all began, the current line-up has rerecorded the ‘All For One’ album with a fresh new take. Overseen by original producer, Steve James, the album has been repackaged with new artwork with a clear reference to the original.
Dave Gleeson says of the recording process: “The plan was always to re-record the album for this milestone. We just didn’t realise we’d be recording under these circumstances. One of the things that we’ve always loved about the recording studio is that it’s a bunch of blokes, locked away in our own world creating and mucking on. Obviously that option wasn’t open to us due to Covid, so we had to do it like the kids do. Our producer Steve James pulled it all together and because we weren’t messing around with arrangements it all went down very quickly and painlessly.”

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
