Australian rocker Jimmy Barnes will play the entirety of his smash album For The Working Class Man, as well as other hits, on a two-date NZ tour next year.
Barnes will perform at Christchurch's Wolfbrook Arena on April 17, followed by Auckland's Spark Arena on April 19.
The 1985 recording was Barnes' second solo album after the disbanding of Cold Chisel and debut outing, Bodyswerve. For The Working Class Man sold more than 500,000 copies in Australia.

“For The Working Class Man was such a significant album in my life," Barnes said.
"I got to make the record with some amazing people, and it really set up the rest of my solo career. I’m so excited to be celebrating For The Working Class Man with one of my dearest friends and favourite artists.
"I can think of no better way to mark this milestone than by performing these songs with my New Zealand fans."
Ticket information is available via Live Nation.
Former Chisel bandmate Ian Moss will support Barnes at both shows.
