Back @ Blog.

Well after a long absence from the blog, it's time to drop a few lines.
Just got back from overseas, visiting my daughter in London and a great look round
Abbey Road studio which I have always wanted to do since the 60s. It was still as it looks in the pics, hasn't changed apart from the gear. The old desks etc were lining the hallways and looked pristine. I looked around the whole three floors and was in awe that this was the home of the Fabs, but the whole visit was topped off with a cuppa and biscuit in the canteen. Yes, I'm a happy man and still a bit Gob smacked.
Meanwhile, back in NZ, in The Lab this Vodaphone ad was being made. Check it out. The making of the latest vodaphone with our very own Jol Mulholland engineer, musician and all round great guy.
it's tech cool. http://www.vodafone.co.nz/symphonia/

NZ Guitar Record


Mal,Bungalow Bill & Mr Glyn 3 of 830 guitar players.
Sunday 24/5/09 Sky City 11am with 830 guitar players thrashing out "Why Does Love do this to me" equals a lot of fun and a real good feeling.
Everybody who went had a blast no serious thoughts just pure no bullshit fun.

Ukeleles are Ridiculously Cool




UKE'S are huge, George Harrison once said he loved anyone who played a ukelele because
it was so much fun. He always traveled with two ukelele's so that if he met anyone they could jam with him. Jimmy Nail the English actor was blown away when on holiday somewhere hot, he bumped into George who offered him a uke and a jam, whoa, Beatle George man, how cool would that have been. Anybody, I mean Anybody, can play basic chords on a uke it always makes you want to smile or laugh. A uke is ridiculous and that's why it is some much fun.

RIDICULOUS FUN & COOL AS
Seeya somewhere warm
