We’ve been fortunate enough to witness Operator Please perform tracks from their upcoming album Gloves on several occasions (including our massive annual trivia event – pic below – also featuring Miami Horror, 360, & Pez). But you, you thus far deprived masses, have been forced to wait patiently, cursing the lonely hours of 2010 as they pass Operator Please-less.

Thankfully the band are putting an end to your suffering… They’re heading out on tour for the first time since Sept ’08’s UK, European, & Japanese gigs, and they’ll present you with the super catchy glam pop-rock for which we’ve come to know and love them. But we promise you the new tunes are on a whole new level!

Operator Please’s Gloves Off Tour hits all major capital cities throughout June – kicking off in Perth and finishing up in their home town of the Gold Coast in early July. All their dates will be supported by triple j Unearthed faves Tim & Jean from WA plus Sydney’s Chaingang.

Gloves is released in Australia and digital only internationally on April 23.
