Cosmic Egg box set: January 2010?
December 29, 2009 by Andre
As previously reported by the site, Wolfmother will be releasing a special edition box set of their sophomore album Cosmic Egg sometime next year. Forum member JasonA has found a link which suggests that the release date will be 20 January 2010, placing it almost a month before the release of the “White Feather” single and somewhere in the middle of the European leg of their New Moon Rising World Tour, the day before the concert at Brixton Academy in London, England.
According to the link, the box set will include double vinyl, CD and mp3 editions of the album, as well as a book (presumably of artwork and/or possibly interviews or words from Andrew/the band)! More news as it comes!
Mr Tambourine Wolfmother-man, play us two gigs
December 16, 2009 by RWS
Wolfmother are playing two intimate gigs on the 22nd and 3rd of Dec, but they’re very special gigs, that I think the only way to describe is by adapting an old Christmas tale…
It was the lead up to Christmas, when all through Byron Bay
Not a person stirred, not even the drunk and gay
Wolfmother on stage, acoustic guitars to be seen
They play two intimate gigs, with you playing the tambourine!
I think that’s the perfect way to sum up this news post! Except one night is going to be acoustic and the other is going to be an electric show, but bring your tambourine’s to both!
Acoustic Jamboree
When: 22nd Dec
Where: Buddha Bar
Arts factory Village
Gordon St
Byron Bay, N.S.W
Rock’n'Rolla Electric Rock Show
