Christmas with THE SPITFIRES / Hangover with THE SPITFIRES - 2011 Japan Tour

THE SPITFIRES are buzzing Japan this holiday season on their first tour of the Land of the Rising Sun! First they'll be tailgating Santa's sleigh and playing three shows in Kanto area before tailspinning it westward and hitting Aichi, Shizuoka and Kansai! This trio of garage punk, Brit powerpop influenced wayward Aussies from outback Perth have already toured the UK this year and are currently making a round of eastern Australia before coming to Japan for their holiday tour dubbed "Christmas with THE SPITFIRES/Hangover with THE SPITFIRES!" With the help of wild and crazy locals including CHERRY TIMES, MODERNEDGE RECORDS & WONDER3, not to mention yours truly, The Stately DJ WAYNE MANOR, they will be playing with some of the most energetic punk & garage bands creating a buzz in the Japanese music scene to date! Scoot down below for venues, bills and dates!
