SLASH your jeans and strap those Grolsch bottle tops on your shoes: Eighties band Bros have announced an Australia tour.
Twins Matt and Luke Goss both posted the news on their social media.
However the dates, venues and even the promoter remain a mystery.
Bros scored a run of his from 1987 to 1991 including When Will I Be Famous, Drop the Boy, I Owe You Nothing, I Quit, Too Much and Chocolate Box.
The band reformed (minus original member Craig Logan who quit after one album) for a UK tour this August.

The band have just downsized their UK tour, scrapping dates in Newcastle, Glasgow, Nottingham and Birmingham due to “unforeseen logistical circumstances”, leaving two London shows and one in Manchester.
The first London show sold out in seven seconds.
Australia was one of the band’s biggest markets outside Australia, scoring three Top 10 hits and a sell out tour in October 1988.
Australian Bros fans have rallied online since the UK tour was announced, begging local promoters to bring the duo back down under.
That was the peak of Brosmania; after the band’s debut album Push became one of the fastest-selling albums of the 80s and they dominated pop culture with a young Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan.
Logan left the band and went on to a career behind the scenes, managing Pink, working at record label BMG and dating Dannii Minogue.
After the band split Matt reinvented himself as a solo act with a successful career in Las Vegas, while Luke has acted in a series of films including Blade.
