More Bullocks', the lads have
chosen the anthemic 'Ruby' as their next single.

- Official - There's now more cider in the jar! The
government has dropped plans for a 10% tax rise on cider
following fierce opposition to the move, and with Parliament
dissolved there was insufficient time to squeeze the law
through. The
Tories and Lib Dems welcomed the cider move but Labour
say it will be re-introduced if they are re-elected.
"Here in the West Country cider is close to our
hearts and if we, through our 'moo-sic' and association
with cider, helped bring this campaign to a cider-head,
then I think we all deserve another pint!" The Wurzels - The peoples band!

- Official - I am a Cider Drinker for Sport Relief...
Following calls, and a Facebook
campaign, to get The Wurzels' 'I am a Cider Drinker' to
number 1, the band have announced that they will be donating
their royalties from the sale of 'I am a Cider Drinker'
from their Top Of The Crops album to Sport Relief.
(NB
this applies to the version from Top Of The Crops - as
The Wurzels own the rights to this recording)

- Official - Wurzels react to the cider tax hike...
"Having just heard the news
we are all very upset that Scrumpy Cider, being one of
the few pleasures that we cherish down here on the farm
in the West Country, is being hit by such a tax rise.
We
all realise that, in these current times, we have to tighten
the string on our trousers but we must admit that having
to cut down on this local favourite leaves us feeling
that we are being unfairly penalised, and we'll tell him
something, he won't be the Darling bud of our May.
We
would like to offer our 50 years of experience of Cider
drinking, and of playing within a cider community, to
the government in an advisory capacity and the public
can be assured that we would obviously register our interests
in Cider before any lobbying commenced to avoid accusations
of in-cider dealing." - Tom Banner and Pete Budd, The Wurzels
