Tweak's back with their 2017 Acockalypse Tour
In 1998, the pop-punk band Tweak exploded onto the radio waves with their breakout single ‘Birthday Card'. This November sees them reunited for their Acockalypse Tour coming to Joburg, Cape Town and Stellenbosch.
Homer Simpson once said: 'True awesomeness can never really die…’ Tweak proved this in 2015 when they came out of ‘retirement’ for a sold-out ‘Ten Year Anniversary Tour’. The shows were a fantastical trip down memory lane, drenched in a ridiculousness that, at its zenith, saw the seasoned rockers spend their entire Oppikoppi gig fee on sourcing custom-cut penis-shaped confetti to shower over the 20,000-strong crowd! In popular culture, this event is now fondly remembered as ‘The Acockalypse’ and it’s the inspiration for their upcoming 2017 national tour.
Get ready for a series of parties unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before! Kicking off at the legendary Arcade Empire Halloween Party (alongside internationals ‘Alien Ant Farm’ and local gods ‘Fokofpolisiekar’) and then moving on to Jozi, Cape Town and Stellenbosch!
