A day at Parachute 2009

2009-01-26T13:19:00Z

Like most years I spent Saturday at Parachute Music Festival, opting this year just for the day rather than the full weekend, but I managed to catch some killer acts, including my brothers set with the beginnings of a new song called Lifeboat: O

Carcass - Live at the Transmission Room

2008-10-17T18:57:00Z

What can I say about Carcass that a series of videos can say better? For those who've never heard them - it's time to wake up and smell the carcass:

Wake up and Smell the Cascass

2008-10-16T02:01:00Z

Earlier in the night I headed to the Carcass gig at the Transmission Room in Auckland and managed to snag a fair amount of video from this amazing kick arse concert: I think I have about 40 minutes of the 90 minute se

Auckland Machine Head Concert Cancelled

2007-10-17T17:51:00Z

Darnit! It seems that due to "insurmountable difficulties arose while attempting to secure passports and work visas, preventing the band from getting the necessary clearances from the respective consulates in time" the Auckland (and Seoul) Machine H

Edwin Derricutt at the Hallertau

2007-08-06T23:02:00Z

On Saturday I managed to catch Edwin's SOLD OUT show at the Hallertau Brewbar & Restaurant out beyond west Auckland, along with an great acoustic performance from Edwin himself, guest performances from Brian Platt and Sayulee made the night even bett

Guns and Roses Review

2007-07-01T23:19:00Z

So I suppose I should write up some thoughts on Friday nights Guns and Roses gig. During the concert I was updating my Jaiku with the set list and immediate thoughts, so lets start with simply running through what my thoughts were: At the guns and

Going to Guns'n'Roses...

Lamb of God

2007-04-25T00:08:00Z

Just returned from the Lamb of God gig at Aucklands' Powerstation. It was excellent gig but the sound could have been a bit better - a lot of things got lost in the distorted white noise field :( Definitely one of the best 'performances' I've see

Slayer at the St James

2007-04-22T09:33:00Z

Just returned from seeing Slayer and Mastodon play the St James. Dave Lombardo is the bomb on the drums but Slayer still doesn't really do it for me - from both a lyrical ad musical standpoint. It was quite surreal, and somewhat disturbing for the

Hysteria bar closing down?

2007-04-16T15:38:00Z

I received this email through the NZ Metal mailing list this morning: Save Hysteria Bar 14th of April 2007. To all our customers, I would firstly like to thank you for all your custom during the last two years. It is unfortunately with a

Three more gigs to see this year...

2007-02-25T17:55:00Z

Soul Purpose reports three new gigs (unconfirmed) coming up this year which should be quite fun to head along to: Anberlin (myspace) sometime in May/June Blindside (&l

Opeth - St James, Auckland

2006-04-30T00:32:00Z

So Thursday night I saw Deep Purple and was left declaring it the best concert ever, only now I've seen Opeth - I'm at odds to say which was better than other. Purple had the best stage precense and showmanship hands down, but Opeth is on a complete

His Infernal Majesty - St James, Auckland

2006-03-29T00:25:00Z

Just returned from the HIM concert at the St James theater in Auckland - a most excellent gig although the mix could have been a wee bit better - was often rather hard to hear Ville's vocals. I have to wonder thou, where the hell did all the 400+

U2 Concert dea

2005-12-12T14:08:00Z

So once again tickets for next years U2 concert sold out within 90 minutes or so. But fear not, I have a cunning plan - why don't we all book a movie theater, buy a copy of the U2 Vertigo concert DVD, play it at full volume and pretend it's a r
