Powderfinger, the Brisbane rock band that split 17 years ago, announced a reunion tour of Australia starting with four nights in their home city next September, followed by 14 more shows in Cairns, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth and Melbourne, all in a large big-top tent. The band, whose 2000 album Odyssey Number Five was voted the best Australian album of all time by listeners of national youth broadcaster Triple J, said the timing had finally felt right for all members. The Friday-and-Saturday-only schedule echoes Oasis's recent reunion tour, and no shows outside Australia have yet been announced.
