Roger White at The Bunker

Roger White wowed us with a set of his finely crafted original musical creations. It was great to see a man who is passionate about his music deliver a passionate performance of that music. If you missed it, don't fret - Roger will be a featured guest at the 2002 Auckland Folk Festival. Make sure you catch his music there.

Micheal Young and Sue Hill at Whangarei

I'm always plotting and scheming ways to get to hear more of Sue Hill's music. So, when I was invited to perform for the Whangarei Folk Club I asked Sue to join me since I had to drive right by her house to get to the gig. We put together a program of alternating solos sprinkled with a few duets and had a great time performing them for the welcoming Whangarai Folk Club. If you are interested in performing there then David Smith, the program coordinator, is eager to hear from you.

Jared White at Titirangi

He just keeps getting better and better. I regret not getting a photo of his rather unusual costume for the evenings performance. Take this previous review and photo and imagine it even better.

Celtoi at The Pumphouse

Beverly Young and her band Celtoi delivered the celtic goods. Besides being good music anytime, their CD works very nicely for me as my morning alarm clock.

Antiterrorist Bluegrass Club

Although in shock from the events of the day, I decided to get on with normal life as a symbol of non-defeat by terrorists. I enjoyed the bluegrass club as best as I could.

Blue Bottom Stompers at The Bunker

The Bunker was jammed packed beyond capacity as the Blue Bottom Stompers delivered a great evening of jazz, as they always do. We all had sore calf muscles from the impossible to resist foot stomping music.
