well, i've only had one...
i'll make sure the next one's good though, honest.
something along the lines of, "who would win: Yoda Vs. Mothra" or something.
the closest thing would be when the b-net station run NZ music week, nuttin but kiwi stuff for a week. (there's always debates though... do Freq Nasty, Nathan Haines, and Daniel 'fat cunt' bedingfield count as NZ artists???
yeah, it's about time though. we got enough music now for sure.
i just gotta say, i opened for these guys in London and they rocked the house. all the english fellas i work with went out and bought their album. Most of the crowd was ex-pat, but there were plenty of Poms there. Vee also bought along one of The Nextmen, who well enjoyed himself.
and it all couldn't have happened to a nicer buncha guys! (and damn, did they have some groupies....)
kia kaha boys!

cos i dunno how polite you folks are here, but with 90 sumthink pages of posts i figured I should introduce my self before jumping into the party.
so.
hello, my name's paul, i was born in rotorua and i lived in wellington for a while before i ended up here in london. i like to play records and draw stuff and i like mashed potato with peas and gravy and today i caught a mouse with my bare hands.
so how you doin?
oh now i get it. i hit the "reply to this post" button when i want to reply to the post, right? riiiight. *dumbass*.
sorry, WillNZ, i replied to ya down there.... hey, where's the 'down arrow' symbol? why do i have a left arrow- < right arrow- > and an up arrow ^ (or is that an accent..) but i got no goddamn down arrow? i think this computer's broken.
word.
made me think of dj shadow's "endtroducing". for some reason. o yeah, the simplicity thing... that album was made n 2 MPC 2000s, he just found some wicked melodies and ideas and produced a gem.... everyone else tried to make something that would stand up to it (most ninjatune cats, mo'wax, etc etc) and none could... and then his next album? wayyy too much in there. too many samples, too many effects.
"there were too many of us, we had access to too much money, too much equipment, and little by little we went insane."
well, last night they had a two hour recording of Neil Finn trying to get a piece of popcorn kernel out of his teeth with a toothpick.. i liked the bit where he went "uuunh.. fuck. uh, ouch."
