DECORATED eighties frontman Ron Keel is touring Australia – and he’s not giving you much time to plan for it.
Keel, 65, kicks of a five-date visit in Melbourne on November 21. He’ll then move on to Seaford – also in Victoria – Sydney, the Gold Coast and Brisbane.
A media release reads: “MR Touring is thrilled to announce they are bringing the Metal Cowboy, Ron Keel, back to Australia for five shows in November 2026.
“These will be full band/full blast events, with an entire set of Keel classics on deck in addition to recent Ron Keel Band hits. Loud rockers Ratchet Dolls will be the support act for the entire tour.”
Ratchet Dolls are a Texas four-piece.
Asked on Facebook if he would be playing Country music, Keel said: “The set list will be the same as the KEEL show at the KISS Vegas festival event, and then some – RKB, Steeler, Black Sabbath.”
