But the Seabellies will deliver a show with a difference in Melbourne on Saturday night as the Newcastle band does its bit to support Earth Hour.

Steph Setz, keyboard player, said the Seabellies would switch the lights off for at least one song and rely on a crowd armed with glow sticks to provide light.

"It's a great way to get the crowd involved, decked out with glow sticks and battery-powered lights," Setz said.

The band said Earth Hour was the perfect example of how every little bit, at work and home, counted when it came to cutting carbon emissions.

"We have all the proper light globes and insulation," Setz said.

The Seabellies will return from Melbourne to entertain a home crowd at The Cambridge in Newcastle from 7.30pm on Sunday.
