Following huge demand for it, TSIM have finally agreed to play Tasmania!Because TSIM wants all your money, they will entice you to come to EVERY show on the tour by playing a RADICALLY DIFFERENT selection of fan favourites each night. Plus all the other weird shit that goes on at a TSIM show.One of Australia's most influential and enduring bands, TSIM have spent decades forging a reputation for their genre-blurring, boundary-smashing, sarcasm-wielding (and entirely anonymous) antics. Emerging in the late 80s, the balaclava-clad group have explored dance, pop, rock and caustic wit amongst other musical delights, spanning seven studio albums, countless award nominations and two ARIA Award wins, millions of streams, and a reputation for blistering live performances.Equal measures of joy and chaos, a TSIM concert has to be witnessed to be believed. Don’t miss the unique opportunity to catch this most idiosyncratic of Australian bands at their peak.*This show may contain adult themes, sexual references and nudity.

TISMTISM (an acronym of This Is Serious Mum) are an Australian alternative rock band from Melbourne. The true identities of the members of TISM have been kept secret. For this reason, the band often appear in balaclavas when they play concerts, although they have also been known to indulge in ridiculously complex costumery to the same end. They have been thought to have been influenced by The Residents in this regard. Numerous rumours have arisen as to why the members of TISM do not reveal their identities. One of which is that due to the highly controversial nature of their lyrics, if people were to know their true identities they could risk legal action. Another is that they are all, in fact, school teachers and need to keep their reputation in check. The latter theory is supported by the fact that the band's tour dates virtually always coincide with school holidays. The band members have created pseudonyms for themselves. Current known members include: * Ron Hitler-Barassi: Vocals * Humphrey B. Flaubert: Vocals * Tokin' Blackman: Guitar * Jock Cheese: Bass * Eugene de la Hot-Croix Bun: Keyboards and samples * Jon St. Peenis: Saxophone * Les Miserables: Dancing Past members are: Genre B.
