It holds great memories and emotions for us, being the last time we ever played with Steve<\/em>,&#8221; said guitarist Ian Moss.<\/p>\n<p>With a history that spans forty years and a reputation forged through blistering live shows and a catalogue of much-loved songs and albums, <strong>Cold Chisel<\/strong> has become a part of the nation&#8217;s psyche. Their story is colourful, volatile and proud and their music continues to be ingrained in the hearts of generations of Australians. They&#8217;ve sold almost 7 million albums across bona-fide Australian classics like <strong><em>East, Breakfast at Sweethearts<\/em><\/strong> and <strong><em>Circus Animals<\/em><\/strong>, while songs like <em>Cheap Wine, Choir Girl, When The War Is Over, Flame Trees, Bow River, Saturday Night<\/em> and <em>Khe Sanh<\/em> remain the staple of radio playlists, pubs, jukeboxes, barbeques and karaoke bars across every part of the country.<\/p>\n<p>Their reunion in 2009, for a one-off performance at Sydney\u2019s Olympic Stadium, saw the band play in front of 50,000 people &#8211; the biggest crowd of their career. This sparked a renewed enthusiasm for working together again \u2013 onstage and in the studio.\u00a0 In 2010 they smashed the record for the biggest crowd at the <strong>Deni Ute Muster<\/strong> and then in late 2011 they undertook the <strong><em>Light The Nitro<\/em><\/strong> tour, one of the biggest tours ever by an Australian band.\u00a0 In 2012 they then released the critically hailed and Gold-selling <strong><em>No Plans<\/em><\/strong> album which debuted at #1 on the ARIA Australian Album chart.<\/p>\n<p>After a three year break, in February this year <strong>Cold Chisel<\/strong> played the Clipsal 500 in Adelaide to over 35,000 people. More recently the band announced two special shows under the banner &#8216;The Last Stand of Sydney&#8217;s entertainment centre&#8217;, to mark the closing of the iconic Sydney venue (now known as the Qantas Credit Union Arena). The band promised to construct a show that referenced their legendary 1983 <strong><em>Last Stand<\/em><\/strong> tour and it captured the fascination and excitement of music fans across the country &#8211; with the band selling all 20,000 tickets in minutes.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The Muster is going to be the first show of our One Night Stand tour so it&#8217;ll be full of excitement, adrenaline, emotion &#8211; and just the right amount of danger,&#8221;<\/em> said singer Jimmy Barnes. &#8220;<em>Bring it on!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>NSW Minister for Trade, Tourism and Major Events Stuart Ayres said, \u201cThe Deni Ute Muster is one of Australia\u2019s most unique festivals and it\u2019s fitting that one of Australia\u2019s most iconic bands, Cold Chisel, will return to the festival stage again this year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Deni Ute Muster brings thousands of visitors to Deniliquin, who come to enjoy a taste of the Regional NSW lifestyle along with world-class entertainment.
