Re: Show us your gig
Just got back from hobart,the show was part of a two week festival of the arts based around winter solstice.Basically backed by a professional gambler with the largest privately owned museum of art in the southern hemisphere(so i was told) but also supported by the local government as well.Most businesses changed their lighting to red-was awesome walking around at night in a red glow.No actual redlight action of the traditional value though.Setup was one of the best ive been to-top hotel,full catering and stage crew-and a killer venue and stage setup. Not bad for a midweek slap in the face!

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Re: Show us your gig
Boy, I haven't posted in this thread in a few years! Trying to find the right fit in a band has been an ongoing struggle for me since moving to Auckland, but it seems like I might be onto a good thing finally. Just joined these guys about a month ago, and did our first gig last Saturday - at a bowling club! Was a bit hesitant about the venue but we sold 110 tickets out of the venue's 130 person capacity so we'll call that a win! And we've been invited back again in a few months.

Here's a really short wee clip from a gig back in May.

Righteous! Nice tones, and some epic drumming. And that is a fun hat Bender...bender wrote:Here's a really short wee clip from a gig back in May.

That's really funny...
Ben, I saw your name on the latest post to this thread and thought "I'll look at pictures of the Bull Kelp Surfers" but the page took a while to load so the first thing that comes up is the picture of a skull from Kris' post. I was momentarily stunned by your change of direction.

Re: Show us your gig
I always find it interesting when I see Asian themed christian churches. Their traditional cultures have had other religions for eons and it kind of feels like they're throwing their hand in to a judeo-christian culture that suits the modern world a bit better than the old views. Obviously just my opinion here and I get that anyone can believe in whatever flying spaghetti monster they want.H671 wrote:Solo today
