DZ Deathrays have called out "disrespectful" behaviour by some men attending their current Australian tour, directed at their support act Moaning Lisa.
In a statement posted to Facebook on Tuesday night, DZ said they have been made aware of a "number of instances" occurring at the shows involving the Canberra four-piece.
"We have asked [Moaning Lisa] to join us on this tour because we thoroughly enjoy their music and want to showcase a great band to a new crowd. For them to feel unsafe is absolutely unacceptable," the statement reads.
"If you’re caught being disrespectful to anyone at any of our shows you will be immediately removed.
"We don’t want this to happen at our shows, or anyone’s shows. After hearing about the multiple occurrences we can’t help but feel completely heartbroken at the actions of some people attending our shows. A DZ show should be a fun and inclusive affair for all attending.
"If your mate is acting up, call them out. If you see someone being disrespectful or making anyone feel unsafe please let security, staff or us know."
