Old School Sold!

Its great to see the two Auckland shows of the Laughing Samoans next show "Old School" has SOLD OUT!!

There is still the Wellington show to go, and Eteuati and Tofiga are promising another return to Auckland, so keep your ears to the ground (or Niu FM).
Being a white boy, I dont 'get' nearly all of the jokes, but shit they're brilliant performers.

Tairua yo

edible
I was in Tairua over the weekend - first time in about 8 years. Its so great that Tairua overall hasnt changed (still no Taxi services), yet across the water, Pauanui is the Mecca.

If you happen to be going to Tairua this Labour Weekend, visit the Manaia Bar. It's in the middle of town and 45 seconds from the beach. God I cant wait for summer!
what view lois?
The Tairua radio dial has a lot of splatter:
Found Coromandel FM on 3 different frequencies (94.1, 89.1 + 90.6), and three versions of More FM (93.4 Tauranga, 92.0 Waikato and 91.8 Auckland) OUCH. Shall I mention three versions of The Rock, The Edge, Classic Hits, ZM blah blah. iPod instead? Yep.
