Spread the word! This is going to be a great night. Share this on your wall and bring the hordes down..
Hallelujah. Hail, hail, rock n soul.

When you have real change, the teacher begins to teach a new lesson, the preacher begins to preach a new sermon and the musician tries to capture the new things so we might have melody and rythym and to do our thing. The most important thing of all is that, no matter how dreary the situation is and how difficult it may be, that the storm doesn't matter until the storm begins to get you down. It's rough and tough in this ghetto, a lot of funny stuff going down but you've got to walk tall, walk tall!!
Another great night out last night. A great crowd in the best little bar in Auckland - Lucha! We've got a bunch more people welcomed into the Coves Home of Rock n Soul!! The evangelical and revolutionary fervour spreads!!!

Thanks to the ever-lovely Dirty Sweets for their riff-laden boogie and The Mad Crept for pulling it all together.
The Psychs were excellent last night. New rythym section sounding pouding. You'll be able to see them with us very soon!! Eyes open people!!
