Wow, there’s a lot of Die Die Die! fans out there. On a miserable Thursday night when Christchurch city was like a ghost town, this place was absolutely fucking packed.
Die Die Die! also win the award for the nicest, easiest to deal with, band of all time.
Don’t forget the Renderers tonight.

Starting with Die Die Die tonight (Thursday), then the Renderers on Friday and Dictaphone Blues on Saturday. Thursday’s gig starts at 10pm and we are expecting a big crowd, so get [...]
Considering the gale force wind and torrential rain outside, our Tuesday jam was pretty successful Marlon was the winner of the Hank Off as he was better looking than Tim and Tim was the winner of the “Play The Most Neutral Milk Hotel” competition because I grew up in a commune so everyone wins something.

Then you will wake up in the morning: “Oh god, what did I [...]
Sometimes we get bored selling booze to drunks. When we do, we dress up in muslin cloth, tie Aoife up, knock over the ping-pong table, get our photo taken and draw tits and a fanny Vicky.
The whole scene culminates horribly with Josh and Francois kissing.
A new back wall and I forgot to post it… Sorry. This month we have gone for a man test. If you can’t identify what the diagrams are, you are probably one of Tim’s fag mates.
A local art critic (Ross) came in, looked at the diagram and said it was “better than Tony de Lautour”.
Several girls in white dresses and David Nixon showed up for our country music extravaganza.
Bullet – a band from Melbourne – get the award for the nicest natured band we have ever seen through here. Check them out when they are in a town near you.
Matt Joe Gow – also from Melbourne – was excellent [...]
This month’s poster was crafted by Vincent Conrad and has been voted in the top 10 posters so far… The big coup for this month is Die! Die! Die! – make sure you get in early. All gigs free, all the time.
