The good lady bought me a ticket so I'll be hopping along.

Only thing is that I forgot that Jakob have a ridiculous penchant for late starts; Wellington show has doors open at 9pm, show starts at 10pm, and three bands, so Jakob won't even have "past participle of get" started by 12am. I don't know if I'm even going to be awake for them :-(

I fucking hate, hate, hate pointlessly late starting gigs, it's the dumbest thing about live music in NZ. It's what I loved about the old Dux in chch, noise restrictions meant all the music had to be finished by 10:30pm, which was great because you'd just sit around drinking beers after, making the gig the start of the night, and not the finish.

The title track is one of the most beautiful layer-&-swell-fests I've heard. It makes me zone out and think nice thoughts about wife and kid and life every time it pops up, quite a resonant set of chords for me.

Yes, but it's all about how they pushed the boat out.

Not so much a problem for friday/saturday shows, but surely if they do this on weeknights, anyone who works early day shift is going to automatically pass?
