  • Hard News: Friday Music: Jean's Laneway,

    Not at all Laneway related, but I just stumbled on this John Cale remake of CLose Watch. It just slightly blew my mind.

    did that person really just happen to be playing in the sea?

    Um,no. They happened to be walking into waves with a violin while being photographed by a friend, and this random guy who couldn't resist the opportunity. :-)

  • Hard News: Friday Music: Bowie, Original…,

    Did you see this? Bowie, Lou Reed, Patti Smith and David Byrne, talking about Walk on the Wildside, including mention of the first time Bowie heard the VU.

  • Hard News: Friday Music: Bowie, Original…, in reply to Jonathan Ganley,

    I think this was a Syd Barrett tribute? – and singing ‘Arnold Layne’ to a rapturous reception.

    I was watching them play Comfortably Numb at the same concert just yesterday.

    And I know Placebo ain't everyone's cup of tea, but Bowie obviously liked them, so that's Ok then.

    Piha sunset, prepared earlier. Summer is 45 minutes from down town Auckland.

    The first is a feature.

    Yukon pin a post now? Good to know. :-)

    Does anyone swim?

    Not while we were there. Hard to imagine, in all honesty. There is also the small matter of electrical pylons looming overhead. I for one found the concept of getting in the water a little... fraught.

    The new Onehunga beach/foreshore on Christmas Day, late afternoon.

    We just ventured down there too. Good to see some wildlife settling in. Although I think it is best suited to joggers and cyclists passing through.

    Good walking connections from different sides of motorway.

    Can I suggest you throw some shade… over yourself?

    What a perfect day though, yesterday. Tempted to fly down for tomorrow. Like, seriously tempted.
