i cant BELIEVE my dad was sooo skinny in his old band and he played the bass !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[yhinau]

No no - that was the Dunedin sound ethos -- you had to look like you didn't want to be there & you hated the audience!

[markduff]

great memories! Dunedin is a great city and has a wonderful vibe ,giving one reason why so much great music has been created there.

[jaytown2]

reminds me of Boston in the 80's in the sense that there are a lot of good venues, and lots of bands.
