A queue formed early at the door. Lots of “airport gate boarding anxiety” energy. They clearly didn’t do their online check-in. Amateurs.
Nasty rumour spreading around Whammy that there’s no merch tonight!
Happy Psychocandy Day to all those that celebrate!
This inspired me to dig out a book to check if it contained a recipe for Dandelion and Burdock, but sadly no. Just the Dandelion wine.
Couldn’t agree more! Feel the same way about Yes.
Spotted this pack of cute pooches on the way from my football game last week. The hound on the left looked a lot our wee Bandit. Just look at those snoots!
Just quietly revisiting this prediction. :) I’m very happy for Chris Wood. All that graft has paid off and now he’s mentioned alongside the likes Salah, Haaland and Palmer. Massive achievement.
I have a spare GA ticket to tonight’s Dinosaur Jr gig at Auckland Town Hall. Price $50 and then I can transfer ticket directly to your Ticketmaster account.
I’m going translate an album cover into Welsh - hopefully accurately - every week until I don’t. (Dw I’m trio dysgu Cymraeg).
Absolutely crazy if true.

The very best of luck to my fellow Aucklanders who might be baking their pavlova from scratch tonight.
Hard to argue with your reasoning. Maybe this is the team and place where he makes his biggest mark. Lots to look forward to!
Ah, right. I hoped for better for him. Especially after his move to Newcastle. Sadly not to be.
I expect he’ll want to stay in England for a few more years, but as you say money talks.
Excited for the new Auckland team. Fingers crossed for a decent - non medieval- name.
What’s happening in the EPL highlights that leads you to that conclusion? After had a chance to follow developments lately.
Argh … so many typos in my message. You get what I mean though.
Thanks for the Muses confirmation. Love it! Ah, Rudman Gardens - the grassy backdrop to so many student shenanigans. :)
Really good article, Gareth. Everything is presented as a dichotomy these. Great idea to look back at the so call golden era.
You can see the same principle in action on Tāmaki Paenga Hira Auckland War Memorial Museum. The ‘notched’ cornices are designed to draw away water from the underside of the roof.
I saw them at Brixton Academy at about the same time. The crowd called for ‘Sit Down’. “Not on your life” came the answer. :)
Such a great band. Really regret missing their last Powerstation gig which they began from within audience apparently.
Ha! So true. A graphics calculator somehow found its way onto the school stationery list and it ended me. I swear it’s impossible to use.
Oh same. English, biology revision? Sure, let’s go. Maths? Nah uh.
Casio calculators truly jumped the shark after the FX-82B :)
Enjoying exam season. Asked my daughter for an example of irony.
“When you’re cringe, but on purpose.”
Psst! Pass it on. If anyone is selling two tickets to The Brian Jonestown Massacre gig at The Power then I’d love to buy them.

Chlöe Swarbrick giving a victory speech like a PM-elect (I hope Luxon’s taking notes). And in a few more election I expect she’ll be doing it for real.
Ah, wrong episode. I shall stand down.

IIRC a Datsuns song was used too. No Levy connection there though, sadly.
