The story that led to reunion of legendary band Tumbleweed. An in-depth look at Sunday Painters, a band decades ahead of their times. …iconic shows like HOPE, HyFest and the Steel City Sound exhibition. These are just of the more than 100 stories about Wollongong bands written by journalist Glen Humphries for the Illawarra Mercury, from 1997 through to 2018, and his own shortlived website Dragster.

The 200-plus pages of Friday Night at the Oxford provide a snapshot of what happened in the Wollongong music scene over the last 20-odd years - the bands, the venues, the events. It’s a celebration of the music of a city. So dig it.
