Live’s Ed Kowalczyk To Tour, Performing ‘Throwing Copper’ In Full

Whether you loved it or hated it, there's no way you were able to avoid Live's 1994 smash hit LP Throwing Copper. This chunk of radio ready rock sold millions of copies and peaked in the top spot of the ARIA charts, where it stayed for a couple of months over two separate runs, essentially kickstarting the Australian public's enormous adoration of this band.

Former frontman Ed Kowalczyk (don't ask, it's messy) acknowledges our country's support of the band over all these years and, as such, he will return to our shores early in 2014 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their groundbreaking LP by playing the whole thing in full aty a series of theatre shows around the country.

In case you need a refresher course, here are a couple of that album's enormous hits.

He will also perform around half an hour of other Live hits and a few of his own solo tunes, perhaps even something from his new LP The Flood & The Mercy, which drops this Friday.

Dates for these shows are below and tickets go on sale from 10am Friday 4 October.
