Hiya team. Had a couple of weeks over in Queensland, and no I didn’t light any of the bush fires. Horrible things. I thought of these two Aussie crackers while I was over there and thought they’d be just the ticket, of course with the compliments of Little Fire MusicWorks on Dee St. First up […]

Hi there team. 50 years this weekend since arguably the most celebrated outdoor music event of modern times, Woodstock.

Go for landing……immortal words from Houston control as The Eagle came closer and closer to where no man had gone before, the surface of the moon. A couple of minutes later another immortal line, “Tranquility base here, The Eagle has landed”. History had just been made, but more was to come with Neil

Hi there team. Just posting this as Mal’s Music Memory as Mike cannot contain himself (!!!) with the news that his all time fav band A-ha are coming to NZ. They were definitely the business back in the 80’s and put out some good tunes. This is my favourite, The Sun Always Shines on TV. […]
