2012 update!

Wow its been forever since Ive posted here - much too long...since living in Dunedin in 2011 Im now in Kaikohe, Northland and loving it! Musically, Hangman has been taking a long needed break from the busy-ness of 2007-2010. We had 3 shows only in 2011 (South Island) but have recently finished and released this:  ALL OUT!

I've been busy as with solo and group performances with Mr S & The Realistics and recently did this: CANT BE SATISFIED (Muddy Waters Cover)

I have started an Open Mic Night here in Kaikohe at Trumps Cafe - the first one went off awesomely and the next one is on Thursday June 7th - Kaikohe got mad talent! Open Mic Facebook page

While In Dunners I did a track and video with MC Choppa Weed aka Mic Sure
GOT IT GOOD feat. Choppa Weed

TEXAS EAGLE Cover by MR S & The Machine Guns

NEW DEFTONES and an old video

The new Deftones album "Diamond Eyes" is choice! Singles Diamond Eyes and Rocket Skates are mean, as is the rest of it. About time they dropped some heat!

This video of theirs escaped me on release - its "Street Carp" from 99's White Pony (a bonafide classic!)

HANGMAN Update

Choice times had by all on our last mish to the South Island! Bigups to the bands; Kaizen Mofos, Flaming Drivers and The Stiffs. Chur to the venues; Dux de Lux (Chch), Saints & Sinners (Invers) and Revolver (Q-town).

The debut album is still making its way into the light of day - Monday May 31st is the official release date, it will be released online then with the CD to come soon after.

Our next (and last show for a while) is on SAT MAY 8TH @ Rising Sun in Auckland!

MASTODON ARE THE SHIT!

Ive got a new found love for the band MASTODON - I bought Blood Mountain a while back and to be honest it didn't grab me right away, but after catching some live footage (that impressed me) and researching them a bit - its official - I'm hooked!

Awesome music, musicianship, sound and all round vibe \m/
