CHRISTCHURCH LIVES!

October 25th, 2011

Thanks heeeeeaps to Chris at thebigcity.co.nz for these lovely photos! I used to live in Christchurch so it was rad to be back and see how things are going post-catastophic earthquake. The central city remains a no-go area so there are seemingly no landmarks with which to navigate but the people of the ‘burbs are stepping up to provide some very hopeful signs! An encouraging place to be.

DARKROOM - So coooool! As Chris put it “The Archive (Darkroom’s parent building which also houses Galaxy Records and the new RDU permanent studio) is quickly becoming one of my favorite places, with great shows, warm hosts, fantastic drinks, home-made snacks and brilliant events.” Enough said.

Op Shop

What an excellent place and time! We started an affair with Port Chalmers and Chicks Hotel and Hector who runs it. More pics of the show and miscellaneous explorations below… Please note I was too captivated by the Radio Cegeste performance to remember to take a photo of her! AND for some reason I have no pics from Christchurch, but I will track some down! Thanks to everybody we met and who came along to shows and made the trip a general sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet as time all round! We will be coming back as often as we can.
