Touring Again – Levin to Invers

Hello again – New gigs coming up for November. Playing from Levin to Invercargill (so far) in November. Any suggestions of places to play in NZ between now and Christmas. Call me 02102591919 *

God bless. We will add new dates / venues when we have them so please keep an eye on this list and the events list. (Thanks Nigel in Rolleston we see you 🙂

This Saturday 5th Nov with Stevie Starr at the Firebird Levin from 7.30pm

It’s a fun venue to kick off my southern musical adventure at

Playing also at Blueskin Gallery (Waitati -Dunedin) and Saturday 12th.  Apologies Waitati folks. Due to circumstances out of our control Sat 12th Nov is  available for another gig. If you have any ideas let us know but we are working on an alternative location.

Roxburgh 26th of November. At Trundles on Teviot (more detail coming) Dinner and a show plus gin tasting. Phone them to book as it there are only a few places left.

And Invercargill in between at the Tuatara cafe. Date and time TBC asap.

There are holes in the itinerary as its a short notice manoeuvre.

Let us know if you want me to play at yours in the tour gaps .just call me 02102592919
… if you can conquer up a gathering …. then let’s do it.
Live is best! You don’t need to go to a show…just dial up a love delivery

If you have time please go to bandcamp.com and check out my stuff.

Tomorrow 4th of Nov is Bandcamp Friday so that is less costs to the artist (me)

“on Bandcamp Fridays, an average of 93% of your money reaches the artist/label (after payment processor fees). When you make a purchase on any other day (as millions of you have, with close to $1 billion now paid directly to artists), an average of 82% reaches the artist/label. Every day is a good day to support artists on Bandcamp!”

OR
If you want to listen to everything there for freeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you can.

OR – go to Spotify and get your lugholes around a few albums but if you don’t have a premium account they shuffle you off to the mainstream artists that get allllllllllllllllllll
The airplay and allllllllllllllllll the gigs and all the awards and grants and sponsors.
That’s how it is unless you become a very squeaky wheel and tell your ardents that you would appreciate some feedback.

Very grateful for the support you good people have given me and I just wanna let you know we have not been idle. We produced a Lot over the last couple of years.

*Just a quick note.i am a bit vague about dates coz I would really appreciate if you looked up where I will be playing and see if I am advertised. Also it’s a great thing if you contact the venues and let them know I am someone ya wanna check out.good for me and good for research as to how effective.promo is.

At the moment my promo budget is about 69cents so would really appreciate it if anyone interested in checking out one or more of these gigs could stir up some interest on the worldwidewoofter

God bless
Talk soon

Latest Update:

Was discussing with my long suffering friend Jason Kemp the logistics of the blog. The main thing we wanna do is communicate a lot. To do so isn’t as easy as it seems. To cut to the chase without being too slimy I would just ask for a bit of support so we can increase the promo budget up from 69cents.

Call me 02102592919 if you have any leads for possible gigs from now until this time 2030 (by which Time the world will be run by scaley creatures and we will just get what we are given and locked in a shoooooo box….ie a box that shooooos real life visitors away)

Seriously though.i am on tour from noon today heading south and only have about two south island gigs. All anyone has to do is call and say when and where and we can talk about the finer details later and no I won’t charge ridiculous money coz this isn’t a business. It’s at a cost to us not at a profit.

To use Elisha Kerin’s term I fancy myself as a profitless Prophet and my gospel is “create a convivial space in your place and let people meet and greet and eat…..and hear some cool original sounds”

In other words instead of a diet of Netflixs voyeuristic eyewash….why not have your fav artists come play yours (your place or your fav venue where you coax the owner into hiring me) over a meal in a convivial atmos….something we were prohibited from doing for.two years plus (hello?Have we the elephants in this system forgotten being tied by the ankle to a stake for two years and now being free of the chain we still walk roundi roundi conditioned to prohibiting ourselves enjoyment of strolling around the entire circus field.

There’s no work in it. i can do the running. Just call me. Date. Time. That’s it….all you need do is invite your friends. How hard is that? If cost is an issue we can just pass the hat around and I will sing for my supper. Get it? Sing for my “superannuation”…..grandad joke
