howdy all don and the new seven sisters lineup (sans SJD and with an unknown woman playing bass) played a good set in front of a huge crowd in the ak domain on...
Hi All, I think the unknown bass player may have been named Marie Thom. Cheers... ... ___________________________________________________________ Copy...
Thanks John Are you going to the 'tent on Thursday? Should be a great gig. And finishes nice and early for a school night. Only a 75 minute set is listed ...
"Thom"?? Cool! Same spelling as my first name! :-) Actually in Germany "Thom" is also known as a last name. I have a friend who's last name is 'Thom'. Well, I...
It's not Don related, but i've recieved word from Dunedin that the guitarist in my band ended up on the front cover of Otago Daily News! We're a U.S. band...
We went - what a great night. Sneaky Feelings were on for 30 minutes. Not to Take Sides (covered by The Mutton Birds) and Pity's Sake (covered by Marshmallow)...
Indeed it would be good to see the Chills again. I saw the Clean play a great gig at Studio a week or so ago. Goldenhorse were excellent at the Speigeltent...
Hi all, I've finally managed to upload the LONG promised live to air material from a Muttonbirds performance on British Forces Radio back in 1995! (I think I...
Hi guys, unfortunately for myself i am an aussie that has discovered the mb's in the last 6 years and come to the realisation that they are my favourite band...
hi.... i'm sure we all agree on this list that when it comes to lyrics, don is one of the best in the game.... "She's Been Talking" is my favorite, as an...
Of course a discussion of lyrics is gonna bring me out of my spider-hole. I think Marc does a really good job discussing this song, especially in his...

Bibi has a great theory about the Green Lantern, too. [Zombie voice goes here: "Aussie mutton_birds@yahoo is one of us...one of us...."] ... Ahhh...imagining...
Is there a Muttonbirds song with greater lyrics than No Telling When? The language of the words and the music is of marooned or lost explorers, but all can be...
... BOO! ... Which is a good excuse to slip in the usual plug about if anyone has any articles that aren't up there, please drop me a line... ... I'd say...
i am an aussie that has discovered the mb's in the last 6 years and come to the realisation that they are my favourite band of all time you're in good company...
Agree with you completely about No Telling When - probably for me the most Mutton Birdy track they ever made. It also contains that extraordinary lurching down...
(the spooky sound of David Long's guitars had a big role, too) yep - he's irreplaceable. Dan ... Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell? Check...
... Yeah, it's such an unexpected change! I remember when I was tabbing it for Pete & Shel's site (still online?) I spent ages trying to figure it out (Bb ...
... I know what it's *not* about. I'd read Janet Frame's 'The Carpathians', and thought the plot had some similarities. I was lucky enough to be able to ask...
Ok, hands up all of you who slept through English Lit! "No Telling When" uses a very famous text for some of its imagery-the giveaway is the line "there's a...
Nice analysis, Barbara! Speaking personally, I was never subjected to... ahem... never had to read Robinson Crusoe in the course of my school career. I didn't...
Thanks for the all the thoughtful responses guys. I can't say how much I enjoyed reading what other people thought about some of my favourite songs. I loved...
... Well, if you ever get chance to watch the video for The Heater, it's pretty much a straight visual telling of the lyrics. Whether lyrically there is ...
Thanks a lot for this. It makes a lot of sense, although I had always read the line "No telling when, I'm going to be carried in" as the other way round. To me...
