Ok, so this is nothing new, we’ve been up on the Triple J Unearthed site for quite a while. Buuuut…I have updated it a little bit, and Quickly LInt! is now up there for your listening pleasure. Also, listening to it lots makes us look popular, so we would very much appreciate it if you did.

In this interview with me which is predominantly Gizzards related the probing questions get around to digging some nuggets of info regarding Burgers new album.
This is worth a look just for the very sexy Gizzards photos alone.

Party on
Chad.
So Burgers will totally be playing another gig soon – a Christmas gig in fact! Not quite a Christmas album (maybe next year, hey?) but close enough. Here are the deets:
Friday, December 23, 2011 at the Velvet Lounge, Mt Lawley from 7:00pm until 12:00am
And the totally sweet line up is:
- Umpire
- The Autumn Isles
- Burgers of Beef
- the wine-dark sea
- The Sensitive Drunks
- Leon Ewing
- Ten Bit Tonsil
and special guest MC Byron Bard
So this is going to be a great night, and what better way to start celebrating Christmas a little early. Cos let’s face it, Christmas is usually a bit lame anyway.
Some time ago- perhaps as long as 2 or 3 years, no-one can be completely sure, some ECU film students made a short doco about me and my circuit bending. It naturally featured a little bit of Burger action and a lot of me sprouting off.
Have a look for yourself.
Chad.

The third installment of Burgers’ gig history.
68) 19th February 2006 @ Hyde Park Hotel, North Perth, with Autumn Isles, The Belts & Fall Electric
And then it was 2006….and the Burgers continue on….
Continuing on. Here we have 2003-2005. We played a lot of gigs in 2003. Well, a lot for Burgers standards anyway.
24) 8th January 2003 @ The Newport Hotel, Fremantle with Tragic Delicate, The Wah Trees & DJ Jodie B
Can’t really remember how this gig went, but pretty sure the crowd was a little apathetic to our whimsical ways. Continue reading
You may or may not be aware that Burgers of Beef have been slogging it out as a band for just over ten (10) years now. In that time, we have played around 120 or so gigs. And yes, it is true, I have kept notes on each and every one of these shows (..well ok, ALMOST all of them, there may be a few I have missed) And so, instead of just keeping this fascinating information to myself, and flicking through it on occasion, remembering the (mostly) good times, I thought, that I would share it with you all, so you can all reminisce about the gigs you were at, or regret the ones you missed.
Part 1: The Early Years….
1) 16th September 2001 @ Hyde Park Hotel, North Perth, with The Stickfigures & Andrew and Geoff from Adam Said Galore
This was the Burgers debut performance at a pub. Technically our first show was a few weeks earlier at a friend’s party. It was hailed a success (by us anyway) and Chad and I went on to drink all the beer, sitting on the couch right by the stage heckling the Stickfigures.
