Thanks to Sally for the great feedback and yep, we'll be working on your request in the next few weeks. Hope to see you all at the Woodie on Friday night.
NEWSFLASH!
Jase does about face on J-Bass. Precision decision sure to cause derision amongst bandmates!
New Venues
The Cover Up has added 2 new venues to it's regular rooms. You can now catch us at Halekulani and the Woodport so check out the Gig's page for times and dates. Also, BIG thanks to Naomi for the new posters!
Happy Birthday!
Congrats to Rob...who reached a very significant milestone last week. His party was awesome and unearthed a rising star. Jake "Babyface" Bracher put in a performance on Black Dog that would make Robert Plant hang up his leather pants for good! Check out his performance on You Tube here!
New Gear
Check out Jason's awesome new bass! Cool colour man. Also, watch out for Craig's new axe. What will it be? Strat?, Tele? some monstrous hybrid? Whatever it is, it's gonna sound great.
Halley & Mellowes Christmas Party
Big Thanks to Murray and Julie for having us play at the Halley and Mellowes "Beach" Christmas Party. Dressing up was fun and performing to an eager bunch of your employees was great.
The event didn't go without its share of disasters. I think I can speak for everyone in the band, it's the first time any of us have had a sound desk blow up at a gig. Some quick thinking and very sensible driving from "SUPER DRUMMER" and all round good guy ROB McKAY got us back on track with a new desk in under an hour.
I'm going to take this as a compliment cause I'm a positive kind of guy, but one of the smiling punters was reported as saying "You were so good, I'd have you play at my funeral". Thanks again for being such a top crew and HAPPY 21st ALICE!!!!!
Cath's 40th
We battled extreme circumstances including Wind, Rain, Small children wanting "The Wiggles", a muddy backyard, awesome views and a flashing party goer to get the entire party going. YOU GUYS ROCKED!!!!!!!. Sorry we couldn't stick around for the skinny dipping! I think after that gig we should be calling ourselves Wedding's, Party's and 40th's.
WorkCover Christmas Party
For a bunch of public servants, that crew at WorkCover really know how to drink, I mean party. Thanks again for having us and we'd love to party with you again. Once again, photo's of your Chrissy party should be up sometime soon.
Avoca Beach Pub
We kicked off a very busy silly season with an awesome Gig at Avoca Beach Pub. Thanks HEEEEAAAAAPPPPPSSSSS for all who came along. Thanks a bunch to Richard and Chris for your wicked pics, we'll be getting them up on the site very soon. For those of you who don't know, we've got a rebook at Avoca Beach Hotel on the 28th of December and NOT because of Michael W's superior drunken waffling, I mean negotiation, skills.
