JUNE 1ST 2009

Damn, 6 months into 09 already!
Just got back from a cruisy ride out to Piha with the kids and niece Titene. Nice times =)

HANGMAN played @ The Masonic on Saturday night and that was pretty sweet - our last gig til July 10th, a massive stretch for us without playing live . We're on the mish to write some new material so we're busy anyway. I also DJ'd at Traffic Bar along with Mikey Rockwell - was pretty quiet but sweet none the less...

NZ's DJ ALPHABETHEAD is the man!

This is Alphabetheads 2002 DMC set. Its rare that a DJ is technically awesome, funky and creative all at the same time! This cat doesnt perfectly pull off every part of this set but its mind blowing none-the-less!!

KEEPING ON...

Keeping on as the saying goes =)

Just rocked a community show along with Marcellin Students on Saturday at Mt Roskill Library as an NZ Music Month promo. Was alot of fun - I'm sure the students enjoyed and got something out of it (mainly performance experience and a chance to show off their talents to the world! (well at least the 60 odd people that turned up). Heres a few pics - oh yeah of course HANGMAN couldnt pass up the chance to rock a few tunes too !

Fasa and Junior - The Mantis

Antoinette and Oliver - Amosca

Year 12's - No Name!

HANGMAN

* Bigups to Tori, Kate and Mark for coming along and supporting the students!!!

THE EXPEDITION WAS A SUCCESS!!!

HANGMAN have just got back from a mean as trip to the South Island - a review, pics and vid footage to come - WATCH THIS SPACE!

NEW EP UPDATE + OTHER STUFF...

The HANGMAN - BLACK ROCK WHITE FUNK EP has been stalled but will definitely be out and available for all in May!

HANGMAN will be taking things easy on the live front for May and June as we hit the drawing board to cook up some new tunes -
I'll also be working toward putting out The Defwell Project EP with Mikey Rockwell - the latest song we are working on is unlike anyhting I've ever done, sorta Sesame Street Pop/ Blues if you can imagine that!

School finishes for the term tomorrow and a break from that grind is well overdue - only to be soaked up by holiday programme mentoring, DJing and the HANGMAN south island tour! All good though, we only live once right!?...

TETSUO Track - ah brings back good memories!

THE DEFWELL PROJECT

The Defwell Project is a new collabo between myself and Mikey Rockwell. Some adjectives that could be applied include; funky, dirty, weird, poppy, bluesy, rappy, quirky, out of it, raw,...,...,.... Check out the 1st tune, GOOD TO GO
