No More Gigs...

Last night brought on the very last Honeybone gig of 2011. We played an acoustic show at a fancy bar in town called Carousel, and it was fun. People came. Drinks were consumed. Et cetera.

But don't be sad, we'll be back to do a few more shows next year. It will be a fun time.

Especially if you go here and vote for us to open Big Day Out 2011! Wouldn't that be grand. Theres also a wee sneaky version of our upcoming single 'Don't Need You' on that website, which is another sweet ass reason to check it out.

We've had a couple of awesome gigs this month. The first one was with Two Buck Titties and Phoney Dog at the Dux de Lux in Queenstown. Two Buck Titties were awesome, despite a few technical difficulties. They are a band on the rise, so keep an eye out for those guys next year. Phoney Dog were also amazing, and their bass player had a 'Chopper' style moustache. He pulled it off too, which made the band a lot cooler.

We had to drive back to Alexandra after the gig, then carry on to Dunedin the next morning so Drew could make it to work at 10am. So not a lot of sleep was had that weekend, but it was one of the best gigs we've had all year, in my opinion.

We also played with a bunch of cool bands last weekend for Ash and the Matadors album release party at XII Below. Ian Sweetman was doing sound and it was rad. Unfortunately both Drew and I were sick, so we couldn't stay up late enough to see the Matadors set but I heard it was ragin'. Apparantly they were up until 7am. Awesomeness.

You should check Ash and the Matadors out, because they rock. Probably my favourite Dunedin band that is still a band.
