Legendary local band Clowns recently returned from ntroducing their hardcore hell-raising punk to the US. No strangers to travel, the band have shed the lifeblood of Melbourne hardcore punk across Indonesia, China, the US and Oz, delivering 40 riotous live shows already this year; not to mention appearances at SXSW in Texas, MIDI Festival in China and many wild Australian East Coast shows.

Now that the guys are back in town gearing up for a huge local tour, they’ve decided to have a bit of fun and put together a punter’s guide to the ‘Dos and Don’ts of a Clowns Show’ penned by vocalist Steve Williams. Check it out below and don’t miss the guys as they roll into your town.
