McClane (formerly Dead Baby Joke) is Julian, Reuben and Nickamc going spare in a room. Sometimes you're there too.
We just released our self-titled 7 minute opus, available from us right here with select distros and certain record stores. 6 brand new tracks and a re-recording of a part of our demo. Guaranteed to tear your face off!
Download an entire live set from the Decolonise Festival, January 26th 2009, recorded by our good friend Nick French right here.
Playing shows with groups like Give Up All Hope (UK), Crux (Syd), The Thaw (Syd), Ex-Spectator (Melb), Inappropriate Tough Guy Behaviour (Melb), Kill A Celebrity (Syd), Rather Be Dead (Syd), Luca Brasi (Melb), Fireships (Melb), Anal Discharge (Newc) & Moments!, McClane are kicking shit and taking numbers.
Reuben's solo breakcore/metal Dead Baby Joke project (the previous incarnation of the band) had the pleasure of sharing stages with interstate and international acts such as Captain Ahab (USA), Ove-Naxx (JPN), Toxic Lipstick (Bris), Toecutter (Syd), Xian (Syd), Anal Cookie (Bris), Suicidal Rap Orgy(NSW), Crab Smasher (Newc), and DrillBit (Newc), until he lost all the beats in a deletion mishap. Then Julian learned the drum parts and Nickamc joined on vocals and the trio changed name to something much trendier with the kids.

Sunday 4th October, The Woohoo Revue (Melb), The FRONT GALLERY, 7:30-11pm, $15, genre: Gypsy-Rock.
Melbourne gypsy band, The Woohoo Revue is touring NSW and will be putting on a gypsy rock spectacle at The Front Gallery on Sun 4th October.
People lucky enough to have seen the band’s previous A.C.T. shows will know that this will be a fantastic performance. Expect a big, brassy and outrageously tight set. The Woohoo Revue play music for celebration- for drinking, dancing and forgetting about tomorrow. This is a band that has been seemingly transported from inside a big top. Whilst no dancing bears feature in the show, the group dresses sharp and the playing is even sharper.

August when The Woohoo Revue head up a massive line up of bands and
DJs at the Forum Theatre as part of the Melbourne International Film
Festival’s Balkan Beatbox Night.
In addition to The Woohoo Revue, the show will also feature such
amazing acts as Vardos, BabaGanoush, 13 piece brass band Opa! as well
as DJ Gabriele Urban Gypsy (PBS Trans Europa Express).
The combined talents of these performers will make this a rampaging
Balkan carnival of oom-pah, gypsy swing and huge brass band sounds.
Just letting you know that the Woohoo Revue and Mr Fibby are putting on a show at the Merry Muse in Canberra on Fri July 31.
After
playing a very sweaty show together at the Phoenix last December, The
Woohoo Revue and Mr Fibby have decided to park the gypsy Holden
Kingswoods outside the Merry Muse and put on another show.
Come
along for a night of gypsy tunes played very fast, super dance moves,
flashy dressing, debauched antics and preposterous stories.
Jem, Patto & Special Bass Guest Edmondo Ammendola will be
performing at The Tote this Thursday 28th alongside Michael Beach, and
Fabion & The Calculator Kings. Oooh, its gunna be bassy. If yaz are
free i think you will enjoy the gig too. Starts at 8 p.m.
