New Zealand bands at Parachute

What other New Zealand bands are playing at Parachute? We (Z Amigos) are going to play there for the first time in January, on the Debut. Is there any other bands playing there for the first time? What stage and etc?

Forums: The Bar,

Yeah it will be my first gig since I quit drumming for Zed. I'm a solo rapper now called MEMBER and I spread the word of the lord Jesus thru my iller than ill flows. Look out Parachute, I'm gonna pull the muthaf)(*^#@!%n rip-cord on those other wannabe Jesus rappers.

You goin down.

Word.

psshhh

jesus doesn't like your steez

Hey man..if you gonna be a christian then dont spout out sentences with swear words!!

yer my mates in Slipping Tongue, ill find out the stage etc soon

My cousins went/go at their school i think and i would have done too probly if i hadnt moved. Slipping Tongue were on the axe attack a while ago and sounded pretty cool.

your cousins go to Rotorua Lakes High?

i think one of them still does but the other ones left and is now in australia, his name is gareth andrews

the other ones jennie andrews, im not too sure if they go to that school but thats where i first heard of them

oh yer i know who jenny is

Yeah I'm the drummer for Slipping Tongue and we are playing on the DEBUT stage.

BUT HERES THE THING, WE HAVE TO PAY FOR OUR OWN TICKETS?

I think we should be getting paid? It's going to cost us money to get gear, transport and food already as it is and we are doing the PARACHUTE people a favour! We are pulling out of that gig because of that.

HA HA!!!!! What a fucking scam.

But hey, it's all about spreading the message, isn't it? Surely that should outweigh any costs . . .

I love it.

Fourth Member and Ubiquitous are cool bands. Check them out.

Fourth Member are a three-piece!! Who's the Fourth Member?

I AM MEMBER and I rephrazent the rappstyles of tha lord.

Word. (I can play drums if you need a new drummer)

you talking to me?

The Lord speaks to everyone.

I'm making a big list of who to see - I've decided to support all the newcomers. So I'll probably be around the smaller stages all the time cos newcomers need support! Oh, yes, nearly forgot - come and see Z Amigos on the Debut Stage to hear a pop/acoustic rock/heavy metal/ska and reggae/rap/country/folk/hardcore/classical hybrid band.

Woah jeeez (don't mind me I'm not taking Teh Lord's name in vain) but you really couldn't narrow that down any more! Might as well say you're a doom-metal band.

doom metal bands aren't reggae/rap/country/folk or ska though

north shore bands aren't either.

you're quite right trixie

//a pop/acoustic rock/heavy metal/ska and reggae/rap/country/folk/hardcore/classical hybrid band.

Now come on, that's just fucking ridiculous. If you do sound like all those things I bet it's goddawful cheese-fest which even Jesus won't be able to forgive you for.

will Gestalt Switch be there?

When is Parachute???

23 - 26 January

Fuck my course starts then :(

it's over a weekend. and if your course is in auckland, the monday will be a public holiday

My course starts 19th

I'm not in a bamd but this will be my first taste of Parachute....i'll be selling merchandise...come see me! lol :)

Thanks, tclak, I love you too. Kissy wissy?

We only take elements of each genre to create our sound, we don't just throw them all in a big pot and hope it works. We strip songs down and experiment so that it does sound as good as possible, and so the different genres compliment each other. At times, you can't really pick the different genres out. And even if it did sound terrible, Jesus wouldn't send us to Hell for it!

So what you're really saying is that you're a funk-metal band that's going straight to hell?
