We got an answer to this:
Sooooo stoked for the new dates!!! 2024 is gonna be a great year!
The new dates announcement is so good to hear! I saw March in South America, but maybe also Australia. Lots hope the whole world gets lots of live Gizz in 2024…and it all gets recorded!
fuckkk yess nola bby let’s goooooo
Maybe I’m pedantic about these things, but Stu didn’t actually say he was neurodivergent, just that he is ‘whack in the head’ and that neurodivergence is a superpower.
I also doubt there is an Australia tour in March, Stu said they’d like to do one ‘sneaky’ (small, unannounced?) regional show, which they often do on the way out to big international tours. Otherwise he explained how they just don’t really know how to tour Australia anymore. Could be wishful thinking, but I reckon they’d sell better outside of capital cities than they seem to think.
IDK, just sharing what others said elsewhere for the sake of conversation.
I suspect Gizzard will be appearing at all three South American Lollapalooza festivals, although Argentina wasn’t name checked in the recent AMA, just Brazil & Chile.
Lolla dates:
Santiago, Chile March 15 - 17, 2024
Buenos Aires, Argentina March 15 - 17
^ yes, both countries on the same weekend. Many of the same acts play on different days in each country.
São Paulo, Brazil March 22 - 24, 2024
Albuquerque is Nov 10, 2024. That contract was signed the week before the AMA. Usually when bands finally sign venue contacts the tour announcement isn’t far behind.
Could be them?
They do check all the boxes in that post.
