Where's the Pope? Are a hardcore punk band from Adelaide, South Australia formed in 1986.
In June 1988 they issued Straightedge Holocaust on Reactor Records and in March 1990, after some line-up changes, they released Sunday Afternoon BBQ's on Greasy Pop Records. In March 1999 their final album, PSI appeared on Resist Records before they disbanded that year.
After selling out their reunion gigs in 2023, 2024 and playing headlining spots at festivals in 2025 and 2026, WTP? return with a special one-off return to Melbourne, as part of The Last Chance Rock & Roll Bar's 10th Anniversary!
This is their first show in the state since hitting up The Arthouse in 1999 with Mindsnare. So it's been a bloody long time between drinks.
For fans of Gang Green, Agnostic Front, and D.R.I. Don't miss this one, get in quick.. One night only.
Joined by Hardcore punks Vicious Circle & Kristol Pisstol..
"The local hardcore and thrash pioneers enjoyed a massive and devoted following through the 80s and 90s releasing four albums including their Greasy Pop masterwork Sunday Afternoon Barbecues, a pulsating musical tribute to the joys of intoxication (with a social conscience), including their smash hit and mission statement We Want Your Beer and the anthemic title track Sunday Afternoon Barbecues. Both songs made the Top 20 of the best South Aussie songs ever released." - 5AA Radio
