- **Event Name**: Rose Tattoo || The Gov, Adelaide
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 20 Sep, 2026 at 05:00 pm (+09:30)
- **Event Description**: For more than 50 years, Rose Tattoo have been one of Australia's most uncompromising and influential rock bands.

From the pubs of Sydney to stages across Europe, the UK and two tours as Special Guests for ZZ Top and Aerosmith just to name a few, Rose Tattoo's blistering fusion of blues, boogie and streetwise rock 'n' roll has earned them legendary status both home and abroad and a place among the most important bands in Australian music history. Their songs have become anthems, their attitude legendary, and their influence continues to resonate through generations of musicians worldwide.

Now, after half a century on the road, Rose Tattoo have announced that 2026 will mark the band's final year of touring.

Led by the unmistakable voice of Angry Anderson, Rose Tattoo's farewell run will celebrate a remarkable journey that has cemented the band as one of Australia's most enduring rock exports. Their music has inspired countless artists, while classics including Bad Boy For Love, Rock 'N' Roll Outlaw, Nice Boys and We Can't Be Beaten remain staples of Australian rock culture.

"Rose Tattoo has always been about our Brothers & Sisters," says Angry Anderson. "The fans have carried us through every decade, every tour and every challenge. We've been incredibly fortunate to do what we love for so long and now it's time to celebrate that journey together one last time."

A special feature of these farewell shows will be the return of guitarist Rob Riley, who will join Angry Anderson, Mick Arnold, Steve ‘Kingy’ King and Paul Demarco on stage to celebrate Rose Tattoo's remarkable legacy.

“Robin Riley, known around the world as Rockin' Rob Riley, will join us for just a few very special dates, Robin joined to replace Mick in the early eighties, we went on to record the ‘Scarred For Life’ album which he contributed heavily

to, he is responsible for those big songs, ‘Scarred For Life’, ‘We Can't Be Beaten’, ‘Work Itself Out’ amongst others, Rob contributed to the album ‘Pain’ with song-writing and his signature monster guitar playing, he is unique in style and in my opinion one of the great Rock and Roll guitarists of all time, I rate him amongst my all-time favourites, his rhythm feels can't be beaten and his blistering solos are legendary, so come see RRR play with the Rosie Tatt's one last time!” - Angry

Since forming in Sydney in the mid-1970s, Rose Tattoo have built a reputation as one of the toughest and most authentic live bands in the world. Their influence can be heard in artists ranging from Guns N' Roses who covered ‘Nice Boys Don’t Play Rock & Roll’ and L.A. Guns through to countless punk, hard rock and metal bands who followed in their footsteps.

The final year of touring will provide fans across Australia and beyond the opportunity to celebrate one of the nation's greatest rock bands and farewell a group whose legacy is woven into the fabric of Australian music.

More than a farewell tour, these performances will be a celebration of five decades of music, mateship, resilience and the spirit of Australian rock 'n' roll.

After fifty years, the songs remain as powerful as ever.

And for one final time, Rose Tattoo are ready to turn it up loud.
