MASSEY UNI GIG 23.2.09

Had a sweet gig at Massey Uni on Monday - well it was fun and we played pretty good but the sound was kinda shocking - you get that though!

UPDATE

Its been a while...

Things are rolling sweet - back in the swing of school and the band is getting back up to speed with our new guitarist Aaron. Played Raglan on Feb 5th and rocking Oblivion tonight, Dargaville tomorrow (w/ 3 piece DAVE - Dargavilles best kept secret!)

HANGMAN is gigging solidly through til July plus putting out our 3rd EP soon too. This 1 will be a stripped back raw affair - minimal fuss, overdubs and general pedantic-ness! I really want this 1 to be a live representation of the songs we'll be doing. We are one of the (many) bands that get the old " you guys sound way different live than on the CD!" thrown at us all the time.

Life is good...

BRING IT BACK REMIX video

This vid was inspired by the Handle the Jandal video competition which basically means 'make do with what you've got and make something god dammit!'. =) (my interpretation anyway)

Made, edited, produced by Mikey Rockwell (who also features in the song) in 2 days all up! Chur bro =)

We had an epic weekend last weekend (both band and fam!) playing at and attending the Parihaka Peace Festival 2009 + playing in Taupo aswell before coming home. Thats a 1000+ km round trip. Was a great time!
Heres a little clip from the Parihaka set:

XMAS 08 update

Its been a cool family Xmas this year =)

On the band front we have secured a new guitarist - chur Aaron (welcome to the band!). Aaron has come out of local band SILLY and will no doubt be making his presence felt in both new material and our live performance in the very near future! Onwards and upwards!

HANGMAN is set to play our first South Island shows in April 09 taking in Christchurch, Dunedin, Invercargill and Lyttleton. Check our site for dates and details www.hangmanmusic.co.nz
