WELLINGTON
'Tis the season... and all over the place stocking stuffers are being sought by the kids to give to the kids’ friends... the Stench Room probably won’t have too many treats for Santa lists as the time is getting close, but just wait for a wee while for some stenchy gifts such as things from Funkmutha, Hemi and Baconfoot. As Nigel says about the recent Baconfoot studio projects: “There’s enough stuff there for about two double albums, and if it doesn’t get releases it will be the worst thing that ever happened”... parents don’t fret, the little ones can dress all gorgeous and shake their money makers at the Gate dance party ...
Banana Revolution are out of hiding and have started playing gigs again — could be just the entertainment for those Christmas barbecues ... Short should be doing the full length album thing soonish, and are playing with Letterbox Lambs (some say) ... they came, they went, leaving only teary-eyed teenagers in their wake. Yep, Coldhouse 5 have ended, once our lives were full of light, now we are again surrounded by darkness ... STZYGY, jazz combo par excellence, have released their first album — way better than a kick in the eye ... Greg Malcom has been getting a lot of attention lately for his Peter Plumley-Walker avant garde piece, even an almost threatened law suit from old Bondage Boy’s lawyer ... we are taking over the world. Recently Wellington musician Peter Pritchard, with his album Studies for the New Zealand Harmonic Piano, reached No. 148'on the Billboard album charts ... Bloodflower have completed demos for a projected EP release on Deepgrooves early next year. Bloodflower vocalist Jordan Reyne will be appearing solo on the big stage at Mountain Rock, while the band will appear on the second stage ... finally, get well soon Spike, we all miss you.
