Thanks to EMI Music Australia, we have two The 12th Man exclusive merchandise packs, each containing a talking cooler and talking beer bottle opener, to give away!
IIn a career spanning 27 years, Billy Birmingham’s comedy creation - “The 12th Man” - has become one of the most successful spoken-word recording artists in the world, with sales in excess of two million albums in Australia alone, and many more bootlegged worldwide.
The 12th Man’s much loved comedy masterpieces have mainly focused on cricketing and commentating legend Richie Benaud and his fellow channel nine cricket commentators Tony Greig, Bill Lawry, Ian Chappell and co.
Into their collective mouths, Birmingham has put words their mothers would probably have washed out with soap – as well as quips, comments, twists, stumbles, asides and observations that a commentator would never, ever dream of unleashing anywhere near a microphone. Such has The 12th Man cult become over the years, that many of his most inspiring utterances have become part of the language. Kids hurl them across playgrounds, adults across workplaces and sporting fields.
Now for the first time in his long and illustrious career, The 12th Man is releasing a range of exclusive merchandise online. The range includes a Talking Bottle Opener, two types of Talking Can Cooler and a Talking Coffee Mug. No cricket session or social occasion will ever be the same again when you’ve got The 12th Man’s totally inappropriate commentary blasting out at you. The sound quality and clarity on these products is exceptional and they are a must-have for any lover of cricket or comedy.
In addition to the Talking Products, a range of T-Shirts, sporting classic 12th Man phrases, is also available.
“These talking products will provide punters with the perfect opportunity to hone their Richie, Bill and Tony piss-talking skills whilst dueting with The 12th Man’s Commentary Team” says Birmingham.
The 12th Man Merchandise is available online NOW at
