A band from Melbourne, Australia that are simply diverse while totally  
infectious.  They have a website, otherwise find them via the Triple J website:  
http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/  Released a self titled album in 2003.  This is  
track #8. 
 
 
Couldn't find anything of their's tab-wise on the net so here is something to  
start the ball rolling.  This is a rambling rolling song about red wine.  The  
riff is on piano, but the chords fit easy enough if you capo the 5th fret.   
3/4 time for most except chorus.
