So is there a list 'out there' that we can try and complete to pass onto the
band?
I have seen personal lists/collections, but I don't know if there's a
definitive one.
Could be the catalyst for the fellas to start compiling a 10 CD live and
rare
extravaganza release.

Cheers

Hi Rob

It is difficult for me to answer this in any official capacity as
it's not possible to have a group discussion about it at this stage.
Gary Morris says if it is within the Powderworkers fan base he has no
problem with it at all - it's a good thing and it keeps the music alive.
The Oils themselves would be more concerned with quality control
(especially Jim lol). The band would be interested to see just what
is 'out there' in terms of a list too.

Obviously the record label would have concerns about mass bootlegging
and we'd all worry if someone were passing themselves off as Midnight
Oil or commercially exploiting what isn't theirs - but we know that's
not where any of you guys are coming from and that the Powderworkers
have the Oils best interests at heart.

I hope that answers the question?

Contact info below for future reference. Feel free to drop me a line
any time.

Thanks

Arlene

Arlene,

Hi. I am told that you might be willing to take or redirect
questions on things of an official nature related to Midnight Oil.
I am trying to find out what the band/label's position (both
personally and/or legally) is regarding people on the internet passing
around copies of recordings of live shows and other such exotica.
If you have any comment or guidance to offer on this I would be most
grateful.
