Historically the gift of a gold watch after 30 years in a business is a ticket to retirement. However this is not the case with the Hoodoo Gurus.

30 years on from the release of Hoodoo Gurus debut single, "Leilani" [1982] the Australian music legends keep on delivering with their all-new, career-spanning greatest hits album GOLD WATCH: 20 GOLDEN GREATS. The album opens with the new single "Use-By Date" and features 19 of their all-time hits including faves  "My Girl" [1983], I Want You Back (1984) "What's My Scene?" [1987], "Come Anytime" [1989], "1000 Miles Away" [1991], "Waking Up Tired" [1996] & "Crackin' Up" [2010] to name a few. GOLD WATCH is a time-capsule of highlights from the momentous career of the ARIA  Hall of Fame inductees.  The album is a fitting tribute to 30 years of recorded history. Mix with beer and friends and you got yourself a party right there, not to mention an opportunity to witness some amazing karaoke vocal stylings and choreography performed by the crowd. Talks about fun, fun, fun!

And another thing...do not forget about Dig It Up The Hoodoo Gurus 30th Anniversary Invitation gig with a muchos delicious lineup you will never have the opportunity to see in one show ever again.The Hoodoo Gurus will be touring in April with their favourite bands, including The Sonics (USA), Red Kross (USA), the Fleshtones (USA and the5.6.7.8’s (Japan) as well as a bunch of awesome Australian bands. Plus the Hoodoo Gurus will perform Stoneage Romeos (their landmark debut album) in its entirety plus a selection of their other hits. Woohoo!
