With the Doors planning a come-back tour, INXS continue the theme of bands with dead frontmen making a come back. The Aussie rockers have announced UK dates, the first time they have played over here since the death of Michael Hutchence. They will gig alongside Blondie during the first two weeks in December. The UK dates follow a US tour where the band played 30 dates with former Noiseworks member Jon Stevens on vocals. The band told reporters: "It's no secret that we have always loved playing live. That's what we did for 23 years and have definitely missed it. The American shows were just a fantastic experience and we were incredibly pleased with the enthusiastic response and support that we received. We're keen to get back to the UK." The tour will follow the release of ‘Definite INXS’ in October – a best of album which will also include a handful of previously unreleased tracks.
