Following rumours suggesting Jet are set to reunite to support Bruce Springsteen on The Boss’s alleged forthcoming Australian tour, the Australian rockers have apparently responded to the chatter with a very promising tease.
Taking to their official Facebook page recently, the band shared an old clip of them performing their breakthrough hit ‘Are You Gonna Be My Girl’ at Big Day Out back in the day, writing, “Come Around Again …..?”
As Tone Deaf wrote last week, a report from the Sydney Morning Herald suggests the Melbourne outfit, who disbanded in 2012 after releasing three albums, are working on a reunion set to hit us early next year.
According to Fairfax, Jet will support Bruce Springsteen on an upcoming Australian tour. Australian music industry mogul Michael Gudinski had previously teased that an Australian Springsteen tour was on the books for 2017.
There was talk of Jet potentially reforming to support AC/DC during their Australian tour last year, though these rumours never came to fruition.
“I think I’d prefer to get up [on stage] under our own steam but they’re an amazing band and I do love them very much,” Jet bassist Mark Wilson said at the time.
“I think it would be a tough gig to get up before them. I don’t think you’d have the crowd on your side necessarily.”
Wilson also said that relations between bandmates are positive. “We’re like brothers,” he said. “I text Chris all the time. Cam and I live around the corner from each other. We’ve been through a lot together.”
