Well then. Ho Ho Ho. It seems Christmas has come early this year! Last night at our rehearsal we might have dipped into the eggnog a little too much and somehow the "ON" switch on Bandcamp got tripped and our new single got released a week early. thedeadmilkmen1.bandcamp.com/album/santa-...

We've gotten a lot of questions from fans on how to buy the Big Lizard in My Backyard 40th Anniversary release. You cannot buy it directly from us - we don’t have any to sell. If you're interested in getting a copy of the release - here's how Record Store Day works: 1. Go to the Record Store Day website and look for your nearest participating shop. Just enter your zip code. Here's the link: https://recordstoreday.com/Home 2. Contact your nearest participating shop and ask them to order a copy. As the Record Store Day site says: "There are a lot of independent stores that participate in Record Store Day. Not all of them will choose to participate in all promotions, or carry all releases. Just because a store is listed here does NOT mean it will have all the records you're looking for. That said, find a store near you and check with them directly. It's always a good idea to be BFFs with your neighborhood record store." 3. The day of Black Friday, November 28th 2025 - get to the shop early! Before they open! You'll probably have to wait in line with other record collecting fans. It's usually first come - first served. Good Luck!
