Nearly three decades after their classic debut single ‘More Wine Waiter Please’ and album Who Cares, The Poor are back with their best album yet – High Price Deed.

The Poor – Skenie on vocals, Matt Whitby on bass, Gavin Hansen on drums, and Daniel Cox on guitar – remain rock’s ultimate road warriors. They have played around the world with AC/DC, Kiss, Van Halen, Alice In Chains and The Scorpions. “Put us in front of any crowd,” Skenie says, “and we’ll kick their arse.”

High Price Deed blazes with the ball-tearing intensity of a band just embarking on their rock ’n’ roll ride. It’s undeniably the sound of The Poor. Loud and proud. 100% Oz Rock. As Skenie states simply in ‘Cry Out’, “Be yourself.”

Supports commence 9.30pm.
