Billy Kidd - Joe Elliott Interview Quotes
Down 'n' Outz Live Album/DVD
"There's a DVD (that) was shot at the Sheffield show. So hopefully that will be out in the relatively near future. I'd say sometime this year but I'm not sure exactly when because we're working on that right now at the same time as I'm working on the Leppard thing. I've got my Fingers in many pies at the moment. It'll be like a Live Album stroke DVD coming out."
Down 'n' Outz Record Store Day 4-Track EP
"The only other thing that's close on the horizon is. I'm sure you're aware of the Record Store Day. I know that they do it in the States but in England it's a really big deal. And we're putting out a 4 track EP 12" vinyl. Limited Edition of about a thousand. So it'll be fun hunting one of them down."
