360 – The Melbourne rapper that everybody can’t seem to get enough of! He’s already completely sold out 11 of the 15 dates on his much anticipated June Flying Tour including Sydney’s Come Together Festival at Luna Park, but it seems that even that is not enough to satisfy his legions of devoted fans.
So once again to answer the manic screams and unprecedented demand to see the man live on stage 360 is adding two new dates to the already soaring Flying Tour. After the incredibly fast sell out of the Come Together Festival and Wollongong show a brand new Sydney date has been added to The Flying Tour. Sixty is set to bring his electrifying live show to The Metro on Friday June 29. Support duties for this additional show will be filled by Sydney duo Spit Syndicate and good mate Bam Bam. Tickets go on sale at 9am on Thursday April 19 and are set to be hot property and sell out swiftly.
Perth will also receive an extra serving of 360 with the announcement of a fourth show to meet the unprecedented demands of the ever-hungry WA army. Sixty will play a second 18+ show at Villa in Perth on Saturday June 23, with tickets also on sale at 9am on Thursday April 19. Supports will remain the same as all other Flying tour dates with Hermitude and Bam Bam filling the highly coveted spots. The Flying Tour has now extended into a 17 Date National Tour with second and final show dates announced in all states and only a handful of tickets left up for grabs for selected shows.
There are certainly no signs of our mate Six slowing up anytime soon, the man is now headed off to the UK in late April where he will meet with producers and commence writing for his third album. While he is across the pond Sixty will also be playing his first ever UK show for local fans and industry alike. The show will take place on Monday April 23 at the Camden Barfly, full details and ticket information can be found on 360’s website.
As always this won’t be the last you’ll here from camp 360, more epic announcements are on their way – stay tuned!

The 2012 Come Together Festival, to be held at the Big Top Luna Park on Saturday June 9, has sold out in record time! It’s no surprise, really, given the kingpins and rising cream of local hip hop on this year’s line-up.
Featuring its second all-Aussie hip hop line-up, Come Together is led by none-other than Melbourne’s multi platinum selling rapper, 360 in his next Sydney performance on his upcoming national tour, The Flying Tour which is setting ticket sales records around the country! Joining 360 are ARIA award nominees, Horrorshow, as well as beat giants Hermitude, Seth Sentry, Koolism, Thundamentals, Skryptcha, Purpose and Bam Bam.
Come Together has always featured the best home grown talent and has introduced and given our brand new talent the opportunity to perform on the big stage to an all ages audience. Hip hop fans who have secured their Come Together tickets will witness the sensational 360 ‘live show’ in what is going to be one of the best hip hop events this country has ever seen! This is local hip hop as it was meant to be: loud, proud, and custom made to raise the roof!
Right, let’s just get this straight, your mate 360 is here and he ain’t going away any time soon! It hasn’t been long since the tickets for the highly demanded Flying Tour went on sale. Shows in Melbourne, Brisbane, Frankston, Adelaide, and Perth have completely sold out with second and final show dates announced in all cities to meet the screams of Sixty’s devoted army that are covering his Facebook wall.
Queensland was the first state to show it’s hunger for Uncle Six, with the under 18’s show selling out within minuets of going on sale. The 18+ gig at Brisbane’s HiFi Bar then followed suit selling out within an hour of tickets being available. A second Brisbane 18+ date has now been announced for Monday 11th of June at the HiFi to meet the needs of Sixty’s Queensland based devotees.
Adelaide’s all ages show at The Gov was the next to put up the sold out sign, tickets here were all but gone within two hours of hitting the streets. A second and final show went on sale and is also now sold out. Sixty’s home town of Melbourne then came to the party with the 18+ show at the HiFi Bar done and sold by early afternoon, a second date has also been announced here for Thursday 14th of June. Overnight tickets to Melbourne, Frankston, Wollongong and Perthshows were snapped up and sold out. Once again Sixty has answered the cries for more shows putting on a second and final under 18’s show on Sunday 24th of June at the Astor Theatre in Perth.
The heat around Melbourne rapper 360 is absolutely undeniable at the moment. Is there anything that Sixty can’t do? His juggernaut continues to roll on into 2012 with album Falling & Flying reaching certified Platinum sales status and current single Boys Like You feat. Gossling achieving double platinum status within the space of a week.
The album itself has remained in the ARIA top 50 charts for a massive 23 weeks and has been sitting pretty in the top 10 for the last seven weeks, currently holding strong at #6. Equally as impressive single Boys Like You has spent 10 weeks in the ARIA top 50 singles charts – the last six weeks in the top 10, currently sitting at #5.
It’s onwards and upwards for 360, who knows what else 2012 has in store for the man. One thing we can say for sure is that if you haven’t already seen the electric live stage performance this guy puts on then you better run out and grab tickets while you still can.
The new 360 clip for his track Child taken from Falling & Flying made it’s debut on Channel [V] on Friday afternoon, you check that out above. The video was directed by Andrew Cameron and produced by Anne Robinson.
Melbourne’s first ever floating block party Boats, Rhymes & Life. Jump around to bangin’ beats and sure fire rhymes over 2 levels aboard the good ship Victoria Star.
Headlining the top deck is Mantra whose instant classic Got Me Wrong has become part of everyone’s play list over the last few months. Mantra will be rocking the boat with his crew Bam Bam and DJ Wasabi.
We also have DJ/Producer extraordinaire Nick Thayer headlining the lower deck. He has worked with some legendary international artists such as A Skillz and DJ Yoda on seminal labels like Bomb Strikes, Insane Bangers, Southern Fried and Hot Cakes. We think Nick adds a nice twist to the party.
We’re also super excited to have The Psyde Projects on board who are fresh from supporting Pete Rock! MC’s D-Fro, ILResponce and their DJ Mr. Moonshine are purveyors of that super funky golden era style hip hop. Their album Welcome To Boomtown is a must, if you love that old school party style hip hop.
Then there’s the super fresh DJ line-up… DJ Perplex, two-time Redbull Threestyle Australian Champion and three-time Australian DMC champion. A true turntable technician and chief party rocker. It doesn’t stop there, DJ Flagrant who recently won the Victorian heat of the Redbull Threestyle comp is on hand to make the party bounce. Did we mention sneaker freaker and superstar ‘she-jay’ M.A.F.I.A will also be dropping some serious heat?
DJ Prequel in the house! Having supported hip hop legends such as MF Doom, De La Soul, Odd Future and Grand Wizard Theodore you know Prequel will have the dancefloor heaving.
Zack Rampage is also on deck, you may have heard him spinning old school hip hop across the airwaves on PBS every Friday afternoon. Finally we have Claymore 74 who has been killing it, at the Fabulous Funk parties with The Soul City Sound System. Fat beats and a killer line-up on a boat? Hell yeah!
And remember what happens at sea, stays at sea! $36 per passenger + Booking Fee

Following unprecedented demand, a sold out national tour and chaotic scenes from in-store signings, 360 announces The Flying Tour featuring both 18+ and underage shows to cater for the entire army. Rather than taking Sixty’s stadium-sized album into stadiums, he’s rewarding followers by playing at venues that allow them to get up close and very personal with the man himself.
Falling & Flying is continuing to dominate, with current single Boys Like You achieving certified double platinum status and the album itself charging towards platinum sales. Boys Like You is sitting at #3 on the ARIA singles chart, having held in the Top 5 for the past 4 weeks. Falling & Flying moves into the #9 position this week, retaining a Top 10 spot for the last 6 weeks.
