Chris Masuak's Dog Soldier (ex-Radio Birdman) only Brisbane show

A year after a freak emergency eye incident in his adopted home of Spain led to the cancelation of an Australian tour, Chris Klondike Masuak is back for selected dates up and down the East Coast. “The Shiny Side Tour” takes in three states and the ACT in a run that the former Radio Birdman, Hitmen, New Christs, and Screaming Tribesmen guitarist says is “both unfinished business and an obligation”. Masuak and his crack band, Dog Soldier, play Ther Cave Inn at Woolloongabba on Saturday, October 17 with support from his former Screaming Tribesmen bandmate’s outfit, Mick Medew and The Ursula 4, nd The Spivs. “It was frustrating and a bit frightening to have to cancel so abruptly but an emergency operation made air travel out of the question,” Masuak says. “I’m very happy to finally be able to follow up.” Fresh from a string of gigs in France, Germany and Poland, Masuak and his crack Australian band, Dog Soldier, will be touring their 2026 album, “Chris Masuak’s Dog Soldier”, already out on CD and just been released on vinyl. Chris Masuak’s Dog Soldier is drummer Stuart Wilson (Lime Spiders, New Christs, The Crisps) and Phil Hall (Sardine v, Drop Bears, Lime Spiders) and the set list will be drawn from Masuak’s long and storied career. “After warming up in Europe we’re just itching to keep it rockin’ and let it rip in front of our Australian friends” Masuak said. U18s must be escorted. No BYO.
