you can buy the jester album for $10 at the temple in auckland

and also at mp3.net.nz if you're out of Auckland... the Eyes 4 Xmas single, that is of course, as 'Kids Show' is not out yet...

..just checked on the mp3.net.nz site and they've sold out of the King of the World ep!! ...damn shame if you aint got it cos it's got some awesome harmonies and melodies on most of the tracks...can't wait to see what they come up with on their Kids Show album. I think their style has changed a tad since KOTW

Did anybody else spot it?? There was other kiwi music as well i think, but the damn credits flew by so fast i didnt catch who they were...only recognised jester..i'll be checking it out next saturday for sure! i think it was tv3 at 7pm.

These guys are great!!! For some reason "Fries with that" tugs at the old heartstrings..

Jester are terrific! Yeah, being Eve is such a lame show, NZ TV ruins NZ music. In the rare occasions I watch being eve, i hate hearing fries with that, I'm really getting sick of it!!

I have only have only ever heard "Eyes for Xmas", and that was on their video, its such a cool vid! Check out the celebrities thrown in for good measure!!

Gotta love this cheesy vid,mocking telly programme Popstars.

go johnboy on those ads hes always in! i remember the days when he use to host juice occasionally.....

Playing at Papa Jacks on Thursday night.

Ruins (from the KOTW ep) is quite simply one of the most intensely gorgeous songs I've ever heard. I can't wait for the album.

Jesters new single/video 'enemy' out next month
The website has been updated to with a new look.

www.jester.co.nz

I Love the song FRIES WITH THAT it's a beautiful warm song it's one of my favourite songs ever. The video is really simple but it's got a bit of heart to it. Dont really know jester too well apart from that.

Jester is greta I heard them on Being Eve and loved the song but I am in America and can not find them anywhere else!! Thanks to this website I can listen to their music!!!! they rock the house hope they come to America!

Has anyone heard the new single Enemy? Heard it on channel Z this morning. Pretty loud! not like the old Jester stuff...but still very cool! The acoustic stuff in the verses keeps it real!

i think jester r sounding terrific, saw them at kings arms recently, they have fantastic songs. transister boy has 2 b a fav!!!!!! good 2 hear them on the radio 2. well deserved!

4 anyone interested jester r playing the masonic on friday the 13th.............SPOOKY!

Jester are playing at the Dogs Bollix this thursday with Stoods! Anyone seen the new vid for Enemy yet?

saw the new vid, i like the song, but for some strange reason the vid kind of reminds me of the tv show "what now?", like the things before the commercials :S

Jester/Stoods-Tonight at Dogs Bollix

Farewell Mary Anne Te Hei Merriman 1919 - 2002

For those of you who have seen the video for the Jester song 'Fries with that', you'll be saddened to hear that the star of that video Mary Anne Te Hei Merriman passed away on Tuesday night. The video which featured on New Zealand Music.com's home page for a while, showed Mary busking on the waterfront of Mission Bay with her Accordian.

The video can be seen here: http://www.nzmusic.com/track.cfm?i=4303

Although she earned a tiny bit of recognition for being in the video, she was already world famous in her home town of Tauranga for busking with her accordian in the main street, and for being the loving Grandmother of Jesters Bassist Mark Grimes - her biggest fan.

Jester farewells Mary and extends sympathy to Mark, whanau and friends she leaves behind.The funeral is to be held at the Oropi Hall in Tauranga, 1pm Saturday 2 November.

I saw Jester last night at the Dog's Bollix. It was good show, and I wrote a review of it here:

Jester...you guys rock. To be honest, and I know you don't mind my honesty...I never liked your music, but you were wicked on Saturday night and now I can say I do like your music!! Thank you for playing at the Civic and helping to devour too many pizzas...stace

Its really weird to think that guy (johnboy) was 7th form at my school when I was 4th form, they even made the original video for KOTW at my school. Ive seen Johnboys former Media Studies videos too, cause he was really good at it.

Does anyone know where you can find Jester lyrics?

they might have them on jester.co.nz

i think that site is still up, but i'm not sure

ok guys, english girl living in New Jersey, America right now. keep me up to date w/ some GOOD music. recently discovered that i have a thing for jester... any other suggestions on NZ-jester-like-bands who rock??

also where are jester lyrics? have searched several times & nothing is coming up!

jester lyrics are at the official site

These guys are awesome. Heard them on Channel Z last year and I've been quietly following them. Go Jester!!

Jester are breaking up!?! I got an email from the Temple last week about it... gutted. Looks like the gig at the Dogs Bollix tonight could be their last? There's no more listed on their website after that...

Sad but true.....saw them at Dogs Bollix last night. Friggin awesome - they have to be one of NZ musics best kept secrets...they rock!! and to those of you who have never seen Jester perform live - you dont know what youve been missing or should I say - have missed! Yet another example of a truly talented Kiwi band beating their heads up against the brick wall of frustration and drifting off into unconscious anonymity. I extend my middle finger to the ignorant record company executives in their ivory towers and say - YOU MUST BE BLIND AS WELL AS DEAF!!!! And to the boys from Jester - much respect and thanks!!

Yea, i know sad eh? Ive been their techie for about a year now but went to school with them. ive seen their evolution over the last 6 years. Cole (PanAm) looked like he had fun drumming for them again! There was a couple of video cameras floating around and Mark recorded the whole thing on his PC so expecxt something soon...
BTW.... Cd release aprty and fairwell gig in july venue/date TBA

Signed

Oddly, on Jester's website they have links to a website where you can purchase their material.

http://www.jester.co.nz/audio.html ]

you can purchase their 'summer skies ep' through www.amplifier.co.nz.

LAST CHANCE TO SEE JESTER!
At the Temple this Saturday, 11th October...

http://www.jester.co.nz ]

I know this thread is really old, but if anyone comes accross it any time soon, I really need some help. Amplifier will not let me order the Jest Summer Skies E.P. I've tried desperately to get ahold of it by other means, but will someone send me an actual cd. I'll buy it, pay for shipping, what have you, I just need to obtain one. Any help would be excellent.
