Should May stay NZ Music Month?

my birthday's in may and i'm very happy that nz music month is too, you can take your other months and shove em!

um and er, tradition and all that. yeah.

my bday too, so you can shove your mothers aswell.....

make sence?

How about which month we leave out?

..or 'NZ music YEAR?' A bit like The Year of The Dragon, except with NZ music... and no dragons... and hookers...

Actually- forget the NZ music part too...

so just the hookers then?
umm this new shirt of yours isn't a pimp shirt is it?

2004: year of the hookers

sounds like a 1970's post apocolyptic blaxploitation flick

The 'hookers thing' is a play on something Bender said on 'Futurama'... my flatmate bought the whole second season on DVD.

We also have the yet-to-be-seen-in-nz next season installment of 'The Office' at home on tape- flatmate's girlfriend brought it over from the UK last Tuesday. Oh yes!

May isn't all that bad, it fills a dull time of year, all the summer fests are well over and the winter ones haven't started, get into the last few months of the year and you clash with the whole rock quest road show, and exams........ hell I don't know, apart from true colours it sort of passed me by this year.

we're only two weeks into this year and you're writing it off already? :P

this past year, picker of nits

i agree - may is a slump in the year. like wednesday in the week. so it's good to have something mto get excited about.

why don't we broaden our strokes then?

Summer
Autumn
NZ Music
Spring

eh? :D

doesn't really make a difference down in Invers, maybe cheaper NZ cds thats all

im with tama, whatever the month we should celebrate our musical culture.

we all no that we shouldn't need a single month to celebrate NZ music, but the reality is by having NZ music month all sorts of events get media coverage and exposure which is really good for artists. Radio plays more NZ music, magazines feature more local bands and TV cover more music news.

Ian your totally obsessed
