‘Give Me Dystopia or

Australia & New Zealand Tour
– September 2025

American punk rock band Dead Kennedys return to Australia and New Zealand this September for their first tour in seven years, bringing their politically charged anthems and raw energy back to the stage. Known for their blistering live performances and sharp social commentary, the band will deliver a series of high-intensity shows across both countries.
Fans can expect a setlist featuring classics such as Holiday in Cambodia, California Über Alles, and Kill the Poor, alongside deeper cuts and fan favourites.
With a career spanning over four decades, Dead Kennedys remain a defining force in punk rock. Their satirical lyrics and unfiltered sound continue to resonate, challenging the status quo as they have since their formation in San Francisco in 1978.
The current lineup features original members East Bay Ray (guitar) and Klaus Flouride (bass), alongside vocalist Ron “Skip” Greer, who has fronted the band since 2008, and drummer Steve Wilson, who joined following the passing of longtime drummer D.H. Peligro in 2022.
Touring has long been central to Dead Kennedys’ identity, and their upcoming run through Australia and New Zealand continues their commitment to delivering high-energy performances that remain as urgent as ever.

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.
