Mulry's backing band, the Ted Mulry Gang (TMG) performed on both nights with his brother Steve Mulry substituting on lead vocals.[5] Australian groups reuniting for the concerts included Sherbet, Sebastian Hardie (with Jon English), the Masters Apprentices and INXS (with both Richard Clapton and Jon Stevens on vocals).[6] The performances raised $170,000 for his medical costs; Mulry subsequently died on 1 September 2001.[3]
Penne Dennison interviewed people backstage for Foxtel's Music Country, which was broadcast on 14 April 2001.[7] Network 10 aired a one-hour special on 15 April showing live footage of performers.[7] The video albums were produced by Philip Deamer and directed by Bernie Zelvis for RBC Entertainment.[8] Aside from concert footage, the DVDs include TMG music videos, interviews with performers and a documentary.[9] Royalties from the video album funded Support Act, an Australian charity for musicians.[9]
