Australian improv and music group, the Janoskians have quite the following in Ireland, describing themselves as “a group of hopeless kids with no future taking on the streets of Melbourne.” When they released information about their new European tour last night, we assumed that Dublin Janoskians fans would only be delighted that the dates included a gig in Dublin’s Academy venue…
However, having played to a sold out Olympia last year, it seems that Irish Janoskians fans are less than impressed at the downgrade in capacity the Academy venue presents. Things got a little bit heated on the #JanoskiansChangeDublinVenue hashtag, with threats of arson attacks on the Academy and all…
I guess you shouldn’t mess with an angry mob of teenage superfans!
