It was choice, bro.  We had a full flat of mostly non-Kiwis listening with good cheer to a whole range of New Zealand music, from Dave Dobbyn to the Verlaines, from the Verlaines to Shihad, from Dam Native to Mikki Dee.<br \/>\nIt was good to be accompanied in Hawaiian shirt sartorial elegance by MC Don&#8217;t Know, AKA <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/boxninja\/22410.html\">Dancing Gregor<\/a>.  (I of course was MC Don&#8217;t Care.)  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/rpgactionfigure\/\">Malc<\/a> manned the sound system, and he had a DJ name too but I&#8217;ve forgotten it.  Gregor will probably remember though, he&#8217;s good at that sort of thing.<br \/>\nAlso in attendance were loads and loads of good folk, but worthy of mention was the stupendous Siobhann of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stonesoup.co.nz\/cankerousbeet\/\">Cankerous Beet<\/a> and of course the incorrigible <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/ubiquitous_cat\/\">Steve Bassett<\/a>.  And a great time was had by all.<br \/>\nIt was great to experience the wonderfulness of NZ&#8217;s musical output, wallow in nostalgia, jump around to classics, and hear loads of stuff I&#8217;d never even heard before.  There were so many good tunes!  Yay!<br \/>\n&#8216;Saddest Song in the World&#8217; on the new Shihad album makes me feel 16 years old.  Which is what it&#8217;s designed to do, I think.  It&#8217;s an awesome track.<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<br \/>\nAnd the NZ musicality continues tomorrow night with an outing to Scribe and P-Money who are playing Edinburgh.  Gonna be sweet as, bro.  Chur.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday night I went along to Jess&#8217; Kiwi music party (my suggestion, her action). It was choice, bro.
