A sore blow

Well Boogie Chillun' I've been teaching harmonica again. I've been taking a Monday night class at Otago University Clubs and Societies centre, and am about to start Thursday nights down at the Oval for Unipol. Just four weeks at a stretch, but it's a lot of fun, and I've got a pretty good bunch at Clubs and Socs. There's some early talent in that class and I expect at least 2 or 3 of them to go on in bands. Maybe it's the teacher! Here's hoping the Thursday class is as good. It should be, two of them are already doing the Mondays!

I haven't done a lot with my own music this year. I've devoted a lot of my spare time to photography.

The sad news of the week is that Bluestone's drummer, The Sweeney is leaving town for Timaru. God it's hard to hold on to a good stick man. We'll have to have a celebratory gig for the bugger!
