In January (not toooo far away when you think about it), my lovely sister Kathryn and Steve are set to open for the Jose Gonzalez tour of New Zealand. I've seen posters all over town advertising the tour- it is great to see people you know open for quite a well known act.
I am quite excited- not only is it a great opportuntiy for The Haints, but it also means that I should be able to see Jose Gonzalez again. This guy is amazing in concert- I'm not quite sure if the snippet from the Sony ad does him justice- his version of Teardrop (a cover of the Massive Attack song?) is lovely- especially live. He seems like such an earnest perfomer (the best desciption I can think of...).

Marching into 2007
Hello again. Happy New Year!
Its good to have that new start "lets put up a new calendar" feeling. I didn't go out or anything last night (spoilsport) because New Years Eve in Napier for me has always somehow ended up in some kind of disaster. I think the lack of taxis and my house's slightly awkward location (on a hilly hill) can be to blame... walking up it at 5 in the morning with friends who are much drunker than you is not very funny...
Anywho I went in to wake up my parents this morning only to find that my sister's band The Haints of Dean Hall were playing on the radio- not bad for a band thats about a year old. It included an interview. I still think that its kind of weird hearing your sibling singing- in some ways I still think of my family as being visual artists/ designer types, and I forget that there is a bit of a musical bent- my brother can play excellent classical guitar, one of my sisters is learning the piano, my two nephews are into the guitar, and not to mention that I used to play the drums when I was a teenager (this often surprises people- obviously I do not seem like the drum playing type!!)
