OLDER STUFF

Youtube user Onelinergirl has uploaded some clips of Dave McCormack playing a show live in Darren Hanlon's backyard, in January 2008.  The videos are for If yr famous and you know it sack yr band, Apartment, Heavy Metal, The New Matthew, Pack yr Suitcases and Girls Like That

Dave McCormack's country country covers band, The Millionaires, have recorded an album, called Sentimental Horses.  It will only be available at the band's shows.  For dates and to listen to some tunes, head over to the band's myspace page.

Custard Spaces by the side of the roadCustard's long awaited DVD, The Spaces by the Side of the Road, was released in late 2007.  It features most of the band's music videos, the Wahooti Fandango TV commercial, and some live footage.  Click here to download an information sheet about the Custard DVD.  The DVD can be purchased online from Play4Me and Sanity.  You can read an interview with Dave McCormack about the DVD here.  Also, if you visit the RTR FM website, you can listen to Dave discussing the DVD.  You'll need to jump to the part in the stream where "Lucky Star" comes on.

Speaking of all things McCormack and DVD, I (Dave, the  webmaster) am currently looking for footage - be it TV appearances or home videos, of Custard and other Dave McCormack projects so that I can compile a second Stalkerbait bonus disc. If you have anything tucked away, please send me an email.

And don't forget, Write Your Adventures Down, the Go-Betweens tribute album that Dave coordinated, is out now.
