Booked for 11am on the 14th of August. Debase, Morningside.
Two rooms, one with bass amp and drums, the other largely empty.
$10 koha would be appreciated to go towards costs ($140). Any excess will be donated back into the forum.

For clarity: no pissing and no brews in the practice rooms.

I thought we were talking August? November isn't even in my galaxy yet.

Edited.
If you think I know what month we're in, you're sorely mistaken.

Thank heaven for that, thought I was going mad! (Yes, I have to check constantly).

I've invited a friend who is an occasional NZG lurker, and my nephew who is a handy player and hopefully a one-day forumite.
Might need a third room...

nah mate, its auckland... 3 people and an old dog missing a leg. And two of them will be passers-by.
In further news, I drove past the dogs bollix the other day and its gone, first time that way for ages - another sad passing of a venue, to be expected though. Think we've done a couple of forum gigs there, one with the ARSE on the line-up and a couple of gearfests.
To be fair it went downhill a few years back when they shut for awhile, then came back with the dancefloor gone primarily as a 'venue'
