WHILE Pink is taking a well-earned break, her guitarist, Justin Derrico, is going solo down under.
Pink's right-hand man on her recent world tours is returning to Australia to perform around the country and it's clear Justin can't wait to come back to our shores.
"Australia's like a second home for me. It's more of a vacation than a tour," he says.
Just don't expect any Pink covers when Justin takes to the stage at Adelaide live music institution, Fowler's Live, tomorrow night.
"That might be a bit cheeky. I don't want to ruin her songs, they're great," he says.
Justin says his boss, who gave birth to a baby girl, Willow Sage Hart, in June, has been very supportive of his new solo album, Boldly Going Nowhere.
"I love her to death," he says of Pink.
"She lets me shred. It's really refreshing. A lot of people either want you to play exactly what's on the record or have some lame idea. She just says, `Just be you'."
In Adelaide Justin will be on stage with The Screaming Jets' Dave Gleeson, who's also on Triple M.
