FAQ 01.2005
Gair and Sandy have asked whether a Last Stand DVD that is
for sale on ebay is a bootleg. Yes! Don’t touch it,
wait for the real thing, it will not be too long before the
genuine article will be available
.Rodster asked if we have any posters for sale. No we don’t.
Up to now we have only been producing posters for sale at
the live shows. I guess if there was enough interest we could
reprint some of the old tour ones. If there are any special
favourites let us know and we will see what can be done.
Kenny Stringer has asked whether anyone has disc 3 of Three
Big Hits. Unfortunately it has been deleted. Can anyone help??
Tim Van Dalen has asked whether Flame Trees was inspired
by Grafton. Don has advised that it indeed was nspired by
Grafton and certain people.The clip was shot in Oberon by
Kimble Rendell.
David Miller has asked what is the official stance, is the
band back together or just reforming for odd gigs. Well they
are back together as a unit which will do gigs/albums when
they so desire. They will continue doing their solo projects
and I guess as long as it’s fun, then it will continue.
A new album in 2005 ..... well who knows?
Josh Main who is 10 years old has written to say that he
hopes to be able to see the band perform again this year.
Hey Josh, when they do you better be there!
Greg Rogers asks if Swingshift is available on DVD. No!,
but maybe one day the Manly Vale footage where the cover shot
comes from may see thye light of day on DVD.
Steven Dean asks whether Jimmy ever recorded a version of
River Deep Mountain High with Tina Turner. No!
Troy Filipek from Japan has asked whether there are any plans
to do some shows in Japan this year. At this stage there are
no plans, although the band would love to perform there.
FAQ 12.2004
* From : Gair and Sandy

it near impossible to find?
We are currently working on The Last Stand for release
on DVD. The exact release date is yet to be determined but
expect it in 2005.

with the infamous Jimmy stance?
No this is not available!
3. Is there a place which stocks SMALL Chisel merchandise?
If you are referring to Phil Small merchandise the
answer is no!
4. Will Chisel ever tour again?
Absolutely, more than likely in 2005.
* From: Paul Murray UK
Hello fellas
Please get some dates in the UK and the new album with the
bonus disc any chance of a UK release no matter how limited.
Keep rockin, nobody grooves like the chisel.
A Pommie fan.
Thanks Paul. We are currently working on a plan for
the release of Cold Chisel product in the UK and Europe. 2005
looks like the likely date. Touring? who knows, makes sense
doesn’t?
* From : Davo
Will we ever see the Last Wave of Summer live CD promised
to be released so long ago?s What has happened to this
release?
Cold Chisel Live Rulz
Davo
Davo,yes there are plans to release a Last Wave of
Summer live album and doco movie. The movie was filmed by
Robert Hambling in 1998. When? now that’s a good question.
It does exist though!
* From: Eberhard Hische Germany
Hi from Germany,
I got your e-mail address from the Cold Chisel site. I hope
you can help me out on this matter.
Being a big Chisel/Barnes fan for many years,I recently got
a compilation Cd on Ebay.
The title is :
"BANANA LOUNGE: WITH A TWIST"
Label: CENTRAL STATION
CatalogNumber: CSRCD5093
Original Release Date:01-Jan-98
LOUNGE MUSIC compilation featuring 20 essential "lounge
tracks" including EXCLUSIVE TRACKS, REMIXES and hard
to find gems from KYLIE, DANNII, COLD CHISEL, TINA ARENA,
RENEE GEYER, TOM BURLINSON and more. The COLD CHISEL track
is a DON WALKER number called “It will always be you”.
I have this number on a CD by Jimmy’s son DAVID CAMPBELL
(“Taking The Wheel” from 1997).
But the track on the “Banana Lounge” compilation
is definitely Jimmy singing and Don Walker playing keys. To
me it sounds like a leftover from “The Last Wave Of
Summer”-Sessions.
I could not find it on any official releases.
Have you got any more information???
It would be great,if you can help me out on this matter!!
Hi Eberhard. Yes you are correct the track was written
for the Last Wave of Summer album but didn’t make the
final cut. David Campbell did record it and the only commercial
Cold Chisel release was on the Banana Lounge with a Twist
album.
* From: Peter and Toni NZ
Hi,
If/When a NZ tour is announced will we get advance ticket
purchase just
like the Aussies got?
Would hate to miss out.
Cheers
Toni
Hi guys. The band have been trying to schedule some
shows in NZ for the last couple of years now, but to no avail.
Plans are still on, but as of writing this, nothing has been
confirmed.
* From : Tony
I was just wondering is the ringside dvd being released only
in australia or is it being released world-wide(uk especially
cause it takes ages to be shipped over here) any help you
could give would be appreciated take it easy
tony
Hi Tony as stated earlier we are attempting to gain
releases for all Chisel product in the UK and Europe. Hopefully
2005. Then the US etc, etc.
* From: Mark
There is a Cold Chisel poster on E-bay with Jimmy holding
a shotgun. Can anybody tell me anything about it.
Hi Mark,
Well the poster did exist around 1980. Not sure exactly when.
There were photos done with the shotgun and without. I think
it may have been used as a gig poster but I'm not 100%. I
recall some controversy regarding the shotgun. The shot without
the shotgun was used as a publicity photo and was also used
in 1991 as the cover for Misfits/Mona & the Preacher/Four
Walls (Live) which was released around the time that the first
Chisel (Gold) compilation was released. There may have been
some posters done for this release and this could be one of
them. It's hard to tell. I looked at it on ebay and wasn't
confident that it was an actual gig poster. There is no venue
or tour details I can see, only Fri & Sat written on it.
I have a vague recall it was printed on grey background.
* From: Phil Lane
Hi Guys,
I know i am jumping the gun here but can you tell me
if it is still in the works to put The Last Stand on
dvd.
And is something can be done on dvd with the Manly Vale concert
that is on the seeing is believing video.
Thanks
Phil Lane
Hi Phil. See above regarding The Last Stand on dvd.
We have all the footage from the Manly Vale concert and I’m
sure it will see the light of day real soon sometime on DVD.
* From : Ade UK

on some sites, if not is their going to be a europe release
at same time????? otherwise i gotta buy a new dvd player.
rgds
ade uk

with PAL that is.
* From : Paul Birdsy
Can u please tell me why Forever Now is not on the dvd
Many thanks Paul..................
Mainly because it appears on the CD and there was
an attempt to try and make the two (DVD + CD) different wherever
possible.
* From : Bob Anderson Canada
I live in Canada and would like to get the RINGSIDE DVD that
plays in the North America region. Can you help me out?
Hi Bob. The DVD is only on PAL. You should check your
system as most are PAL compatible now.
* From : Joe Moses
Has any work commenced on THE LAST STAND DVD.
If so, any idea when it will be released.
Thank You
Hi Joe, as above work has commenced.
* From : Graham Allen
When is the last stand coming to dvd. regards graham allen
Hi Graham, see above.
* From : Darcy Swinnerton
Why don’t Cold Chisel come on the road and do some small
gigs in Northern California for we few but avid Chisel fans
here???? I would die to see them live, as I missed out by
living in Australia in the post Chisel days. PLLLLEEEASEEE! I
can give some feedback on good clubs here.
I know that the band are keen to tour the US again.
Who knows what may happen!
* From : Paul Jansen
Hello,
Last week I bought the new dvd and now I saw him I will see
the band here on a stage. The last tour that you guys did
here in Europe is too long ago and I missed that. I don't
think you played in Belgium or Holland, I saw Jimmy 9 times
during his tours around central Europe in the begin of the
90's. I read on the site of Livingloud that they're planning
a tour in Britain for next year, hopefully it's gonna be more
than just England. Because it's not cheap to go over there
it's almost necessary to stay over and the hotel prices are
not cheap. Then I prefer to do more concerts but on the continent
for the same amount of money. But please try to come over
next year, we have a good club circuit over here. I gonna
leave you now but not before you get the greetings from the
winter side of the globe and keep on putting the good music
in the spotlight ! ! !
As with the US the band is very keen to tour Europe
and the UK again.
* From : Nikhil Spain
Hey Nik, hope it worked out with your girl!
* From : Paul Kirsopp UK
Hi, I am living in England,my brother spent ten years in Aussie
and introduced me to Cold Chisel.
Why are they relatively unheard of in England?
I lived in London 10 yrs now back home in Newcastle north
England.
Whilst in London rubbed shoulders with lots of Aussies and
heard more CC.
Saw Jimmy live twice. Absolutely fucking brilliant band.
Is there a fan club. If not can you keep me informed of any
news.
Thanks
genuine Jimmy Barns and CC fan
Paul Kirsopp
Hi Paul, thanks for the kind words. Who knows what
2005 will bring, meantime stay tuned to the Cold Chisel web
site, especially the chat room, those guys know more about
what's happening than the band does!!
* From : Mike D
hi a couple of years ago i purchased a special release CD
called 3 big hits (i think - i am at work at the moment).
The concept was to buy a three cd's with 5 songs on each over
a period of time in order to build up to the entire collection.
I only ended up purchasing the first two and now would like
the third one. Is the CD still in production or do you have
any ideas how i can get a copy of the third disc.
Mike D
Hi Mike. No unfortunately the disc is not in production
anymore. Maybe check the chat room or ebay for someone who
may have a copy they want to part with.
* From : Glenn Daley
Hello I was wanting to find out where can I get a Cold Chisel
Screen saver
for my computer.
yours faithfully
Glenn Daley
Hi Glenn. No sorry we don’t have any screen
savers. With most computers today you can put up any photo
you like up as a desktop picture. Grab a Chisel photo and
put it up, that should work.
