Well, I accidentally deleted my first post, so my second post won’t be as detailed 😅 We’re off for a couple weekend gigs, but we’ll be back in the studio early next week! I haven’t recorded any of my parts yet, but what we have recorded – drums, bass, guitar for 10 songs – sound…

Hey Socials! Throw me a comment to lmk that you’re keeping up with this tour! I have to admit to my first negative experience here. It’s a big nothing burger, really, but it involves lack of sleep, a creaky old building, and a ghost. We arrived at the Kentish Hotel in Waiuku after a half…

Last day at Parakao. It felt strange to leave. When we arrived back at the venue, everybody fell quite naturally into hugs, conversation, music, food…it felt like more like a family reunion than a gig. So it seemed abrupt and uncomfortable when we loaded into the car possibly never to return… Thankfully there isn’t time…

Hey Socials! Just more of the same from this ridiculously cushy tour. The audience at Parakao was all about us, and it made my heart glad! That and the gloriousness of the scenery 😍 It was THE most happening show in literally the middle of nowhere NZ. Karl loved it! Before the show we were…

Rehearsal day! Stopped into McDonalds for some quick breakfast (McDonalds coffee here is better), popped into the music store for some last minute items (See Karl updates below), and headed to the rehearsal studio. There, we rehearsed both shows – mine and the headliner’s – for a solid 6.5 hours! By the time we left…

Hey Socials! Here’s what’s up! I had an excellent time meeting the boys yesterday and getting acclimated to the scene here in Auckland! We checked into our band apartment for the week, and headed over to a Sunday afternoon jam session. After traveling for a couple days, I think we were all ready to cut…
