Weddings Parties Anything - A Tale They Won't Believe

[ROBERTFLETT]

Never seen them live but ,, what a band .. they rock..

[ThePalookaoftheCan]

One like from me is not enough. Rad.

[quogequox]

Best live band ever? Maybe

[rabbitoh14]

@quogequox fucking maybe??...cop on son, definately

[HappyTrailsHans]

I first heard this song while going to the Apollo Bay music festival. It was a pretty creepy song to listen to while driving through woods

[stocky181]

Jees the tent was rocking that night - I was a couple of rows from the front awesome!

[RenkorDK]

this song is ledgend im fourteen and kids will rip at me merciless if they heard me listening to this but this is fucking epic its about real convicts its about this guy alexander pearce killing and eating fellow escapees! but he probably was a fairly decent guy all he did was steal shoes! and @toftmf think of it this way if you were pearce would you kill he that would slit your throat for one nights worth of dinner?his last words! Man’s flesh is delicious. It tastes far better than fish or pork

[JockRonayne]

If you never saw them live, your life is somewhat lacking.

Singing about the Tasmanian convict Alexander Pearce. Check out the story on Wikipedia.

[tinuvielt]

Sick.

[BlackEyedSun]

I love this tune.. Not quite the story...but damn, this is a good rendition

[seamusagleann]

found this and brought back memories of a great band. had a bootleg copy of two albums from years ago given to me by a pal. so if your kristy and worked in the clachaig inn ,scotland ,with me mark and trudy ,get in touch !!

[kirky67]

Hell of a song! Seeing them and the the Fish in the Corner, Richmond, was a real treat. Can't believe it was nearly 20 years ago, though.

[nedthetoothpick]

Brilliant!

2 thumbs up....

This song has been my favourite for a good 15 or so years... I love the imagery and I love how insane the crowd gets when they play it live.

[DaChieftain]

These guys are (were?) great, live.  Go The Weddoes!

[toftmf]

Cannibalism, of course...I didn't mind the group performing the song and the tune at all. The images evoked by the lyrics however is a different story. The thought of my fellow man eating my fellow man has always made me rather queasy

[wha65]

This song is based on a true story about convicts.

[WFM123Bone]

@toftmf "It seems to me that a full belly is pre requisite to all manner of good." Check it out...well the link won't fucking work but search in youtube for "Confession Of A Cannibal Convict." Should come up with a Channel 4 drama, but it might not work outside the UK. If so and anyone wants to watch it let me know and I'll see about downloading it. Its a fairly downbeat drama about Pearce and his chums.

[toftmf]

This renders me speechless.

[musicinhistory]

Why's that, toftmf? Are you rendered speechless by the song or the cannibalism?
