Lace up your kiwi-feather rock sporran, strap on your grease proof cowboy slacks and oil your pet weasels. It's time to come along and see The Hi-Aces perform with The Livids and The Huhu this Friday at Happy in Wellington. 10pm start.

Fatlogged flakes
Engirdle a snug meatish core
The puggish treat
squats upon your paw

You bite
It burns
A puff of lardsteam
jets from your sizzled maw

Now blowing hard
you cool its grizzled wound
a grease film plasters
the ceiling of your craw

You offer thanks
to the public service
cos sausage rolls
is what the public service is for.

The Hi-Aces are playing their suburban roots and country rock, with the Manuwatu old boys, The Livids, this Friday (12th May) at RM101 Bodega. It should be a great night, an intimate venue with a fine bar and an open fire.

Also if for some reason you have always wanted to see The Hi-Aces two nights in a row, they are playing at the same venue on Thursday the 11th! This time supporting synth-poppers Thomas:Parkes.

We're playing at the San Francisco Bathhouse (which is in Welington New Zealand and is the bar formally know as Indigo) tomorrow 12th April. It's an eary evening gig, around 6:30. It's part of the acoustic lounge. I will be playing electric guitar through a digital effects processor into a solid state amplifier. Come along if you're in the area.

I'm taking a break for a month. I'll be back early April.

..is this one



It's the one that gets linked to the most and people seem to post all over the place on their blogs and websites. I've also sold more prints of this one that any other and it's been used in a number of publications.
