Windy Wellington
I was sat in Auckland, Thursday night and spotted that So So Modern were playing on a Tug Boat down in Wellington on Friday night!
So I immediately booked a flight down to the windy city…
After checking into the closest hostel I headed down to Oriental Bay and the Tug Boat, which turned out to be a ridiculously cool venue disguised as a floating restaurant…
However as soon as I lowered myself down the stairs into the hull it turned into a place of dreams! Reminding me of an old working mans club or some kind of retro function room! Perfect setting!
The gig was awesome with a super friendly crowd! Good chatting with So So Modern, as I did the live visuals for them on the Transgressive stage at Leeds festival back in August.
Obviously I had to take a couple of pics of the bands…
First up were a great band called Over The Atlantic…
Then the synthtastic wonder boys that are So So Modern!
Really fun gig… reminded me of times spent over in New Orleans partying down at the Spellcaster Lodge with Quintron & Miss Pussycat for the Maritime ball! Guess it’s the nautical theme on the Tug Boat....
I saw over the atlantic in NY they were great, their album is really good too.
Good to hear your having fun! Have a good Xmas, Stef.
