  • SOLD OUT. Six song 7" EP on clear vinyl. Includes an insert.
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    VB versus MB. Green versus Red. Queanbeyan versus Snowtown.......
    This record is a split with our mates from South Australia, The Meatbeaters.
    They cover The Vee Bees song 'Whaddya Reckon About Me Ute' and we play The Meatbeaters song 'Never Miss The Bowl'.
    At around six minutes per side The VB's pack on two songs to one in a frenzy of beer fueled shenanagins from both bands. Also included on the VB's side is 'Rock Ya Liver' originally by Verbal Abuse, 'Cooma Water' and 'Bottla Red', all from the Roots 'n' Blues sessions. 'Bowl' , 'Liver' and 'Cooma' previously unreleased.
    The Meatbeaters add '6 Foot 8' (and retarded) to their cover of 'Whaddya Reckon About Me Ute' to round off two sides of outstanding Aussie beer drinkin', ute drivin', bowl fillin', punk'n'roll.

about

This one is about tomatoe sauce, not cabinet savignog like lots of people reckon. This song almost single handedly wrecked our beer drinking image beyond repair, and it's taken some clever marketing to get over that one. And the band psychologist has been working lots of overtime...

lyrics

When there's steak on my plate I make no mistake
I'm no connoisseur but I know what I like
A bottla red, open a bottla red
Next to the barbie with your meat and bread
Full bodied flavour, a fruity after taste
The aroma's good on the nose in the middla me face
Some like the flavour, I like the taste
Buy by the case and save save save!

Bottla red, open a bottla red
It's the vegetable in three meat and veg
The Seppo's call it ketchup, Aussies say sauce
Of course.

When there's mates at my place we make no mistake
There's steak on our plate and we're feeding our face
The barbie's fired up and we're cooking something dead
In the back yard mate, next to the shed
Davo's on the T-bone, Glenno's eyeing off the cans
Tommo's huntin' somethin' with an arrow
And the kids are on the snags
And I'm eating a bottle of red while I'm drinking a can of green
I'm eating a bottle of red
I'm drinking a can of green
