    lets see how many kiwi bands/solo you know of, I'm curious to see as to what ones people have heard of and what gets missed. Everyone here knows the who, the doors, grateful dead etc from where most of you are but how many would know any bands from New Zealand and how many, to start you off I'll give you one Dave Dobbyn :sunglasse

    No offenence but if you want a SA band thread you start it, this is for kiwi bands. Nah Ponydozer you might as well I don't think anyone here knows any kiwi bands let alone where New Zealand is I think they're all thick as shit, yeah I saw pulp, classic stuff :D I'll mention Bic Runga, Pluto, Dragon, Hello Sailor, Th Dudes, Split Enz, Che Fu, Supergroove, Haley Westenra, Goldenhorse, Shihad, Fat Freddys Drop, Crowded House and The Mint Chicks to start with :sunglasse {doesn't mean I like all of them but its a good cross section. I'll be near Auckland in 2 months moving to Rotorua where my partners familly is, don't understand personally myself the thing against Auckland know plently from there sounds pretty awesome really and diverse you must have a great scene up there for entertainment :) Christchurch is not that bad but not that great either lol

    Check this out to those who don't realise how the above doesn't even scratch the surface this is a website of kiwi music with a list of bands and thats not all of them:

    Instead of pillows, let's just use pillowcases filled with kiwis.

    Oh, and if all the main Kiwi bands were mentioned in the beginning...are we supposed to research the obscure ones? Just wondering.

    Well. (Im not going to look at that link, that would be cheating). Pacifier (hey, it was one for a time hahahaha) stereogram. P Money. Che Fu. Supergroove. Scribe. Deja Voodoo. Deceptikonz. D4. Datsuns. 8 Foot Sativa (are they still going?) Stellar. Fur Patrol. The Donnas. Op Shop (those guys are cool) Breaks Co op. Push Push. The Bleeders. The Have. Blindspott. (Just spoke to my stepdad so here are some oldies) Holiday Makers. When the cats away. The Narcs. The Muttonbirds. The Chills. Aarahdna (I think thats how you spell her name) Strawpeople. DD Smash. Peking Man

    The list goes on......moving to Rotorua?! Geez thats a big change...your partner doesnt know a guy called Roy who has a wife called Amy (and a new baby son) does she? Good luck with the move.

    Yeah most people who hate Aucklanders rely on the news far too much, they paint us all as rich snobs who have no real problems. I remember hearing this one guy saying 'all they do is sit on their boats sipping lattes all day' hahahahahahahahaha! Ive never heard anything so ridiculous! My family will never be able to own a boat! But yeah anyway. Ahem.
