Melbourne lads For Amusement Only release their new ep 'One For The Team' this week (out May 12th), featuring the track 'Believe'. For Amusement Only are heading off on a national tour of their own at the start of June. This tour will take in QLD, NSW, Vic and SA. Unfortunately however, Novo from the band (guitar/vocals) has fallen ill and will not be able to perform his duties on the upcoming tour. "Well, my worst nightmare has recently come true and three weeks out from hitting the road to launch the new EP I have got myself some Glandular Fever. As my PS2 and me become better and better friends my ability to do much else is getting progressively worse and we've decided that it's gonna be best if I don't go on the tour. The show will go on however! The guys are in the middle of getting a fill in guitarist up to scratch and will be fit to kick ass all over Aus in a couple of weeks as planned!" We'll let ya know who the man filling in the shoes is when they tell us. Read More for the dates.
