Old gig flyer

Photo of print ad cut from some kind of magazine, sitting on top of a small stack of other pages.

Someone found this print ad and took a photo of it. It got to me via social media. This was 1998 and the gig was at St James Cabaret. I found a page about it on obscure.co.nz which is kind of charming for not mentioning any kind of online presence for the gig or its promoter – but it does give you his landline, fax, and mobile number. Someone message John 27 years later and see if he’s got the same number!

I got Toby Laing to play trumpet and Tim Jaray bass. They’re probably best known for Fat Freddy’s and Black Seeds respectively, though they’ve both played for both bands.
