A HEAD FULL OF ROAD-KILL (Live In Germany) Live Album 2010 through Croxton Records in Australia and Valve Records OS $25 (plus postage/handling) Limited pre-release copies available online now THERE ARE A LIMITED NUMBER OF SIGNED PRE-RELEASE COPIES AVAILABLE ONLINE NOW A HEAD FULL OF ROAD-KILL (Mick Thomas with Michael Barclay Live in Germany) is done and dusted and ready to go just in time for their August and September jaunt around The UK, Holland, Germany, Denmark & China. They will be available at shows and there are a handful of signed pre-release copies available online through JB Hi-fi now by CLICKING HERE. "The good folk at Valve Records in Germany have worked hard to get it ready for release and we're pleased to announce it's an absolute cracker. There are 15 tracks in all and it sounds as sweet as can be. Quite often acoustic live things can end up sounding thin and compromised but they've really done the work on this and I guess as it was recorded in the middle of a really intense run of consecutive shows (at a proper recording studio I might ad), it is a really confident performance to match the sonic quality."

WEDDINGS, PARTIES, ANYTHING LONG TIME BETWEEN DRINKS DVD DVD 2007 through Madman Entertainment $35 (plus postage/handling) CLICK ON THE COVER FOR MORE INFO "Weddings, Parties, Anything began life in Melbourne in late 1983 finishing up at the end of 1998. In those fifteen years they traveled the globe, developing a huge loyal following of fans through the high energy live performances and regular releases. In the later part of their career, live shows would sell out in hours and single night shows became week long residencies. The band hung up their boots knowing they'd had a great run. Coaxed back together in 2005 for a charity event, the band soon realized that the magic and the fun was still there, so when a performance at the 2006 Queenscliff Festival was mooted, it seemed like a good idea to do the show and get it on film as there had never been a DVD of the band. The result is a fantastic record of the Weddos in their element thrilling a large crowd with yet another frenetic live performance featuring all their old favourites. Add to this a complete collection of all the WPA film clips and the rare short film Roaring Days, and this is the definitive Weddings Parties Anything release."
