Former Nirvana bass player Krist Novoselic (pictured, centre) - he was in Sweet 75 post-Nirvana, but let's not kid ourselves that they're worth remembering - is to tour with reformed San Francisco-based punks Flipper in December.

Flipper - Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain was a famous fan - formed back in 1979; they originally split in 1988 when bassist Will Shatter died, but have been together, on and off, in different line-ups since 1990.

The Novoselic-featuring line-up is expected to record a new album next year. In the meantime, the band call at...

December 11 London Scala 13 Manchester Academy 3 14 Glasgow Garage 15 Belfast Lavery's 16 Dublin The Village 17 Galway Roisin Dubh

The quartet also play ATP's Nightmare Before Christmas on the second weekend of December - link.
