If you’re in Australia, here’s a little something special for you! For the first time ever, anywhere in the world, some of Tim’s CDs are being properly released so that you can buy them in actual shops!
That’s right, you’ll be able to walk down to your local Sanity, JB HiFi or other record store of your choice and buy a Tim CD from them! Or, you could, you know, buy it from their websites instead.
The two albums being made available initially are 2009’s ‘Ready For This?’ and this year’s ‘Tim Minchin and the Heritage Orchestra’. Both of these have been released on Navel Records and being distributed by Inertia Music.
If you’re elsewhere and wanting a copy of the orchestra album, we’ll hopefully have some news for you on that shortly but in the meantime, here’s a nice medley of clips from it to whet your appetite.

re: cardboard cutouts.
Is there anywhere in my house I could put a cardboard cut-out of Tim where my boyfriend wouldn’t feel, you know, intimidated…?

JB Hi Fi ships internationally (whoo hoo), and has pretty good sale prices right now on ‘Ready For This’ and ‘So Live’.
Remember: DVDs will need to be played on a region-free player if you are in the US.

Fully agree with Tereen Hough – when can we buy the DVD of the TM vs SSO show???

If I may, I would just like to punch the air and run around like a mad person screaming “BEST TIMING EVER” for several minutes. I sense an epic Minchin-loaded birthday hamper coming up.

Excellent! Don’t have to reply on youtube.
