A short poem inspired and written for a beautiful woman

You wouldn't want too   Go on a date sometime.  Would you
For I would love too.  Wine and dine.   With you
We could spend some money and time together
Please Forgive me If am so bold.   But i have noticed your ways and your won'ts
Plus how you dress and caress and love everything best
If I could     I would    Take your hand in mine
So overtime I would become yours.  And you would become mine.

Moss and DT - Basement Recording in Mount Albert

Dan and I did some diy recording at his place with the dirty old 80's digital 16 track.
We didn't have much time because I had to a Google networking expo at Auckland Uni and Dan
needed to crunch some numbers for work but we had a blast, even though you can get a bit tense and nervous when recording haha. We hooked up our 4 mics and kicked into it without a
moment to lose and jammed one of Dan's idea. We hadn't recorded for ages together
si it was great to get back in the horses saddle and have fun!! :)
I've actually got our cover of "Sweet Jane" on the same machine so ill take that off
asap and slam it up on this blog post but beware I'm singing on that track haha :)

"Turn The Tables" Rock Single off to FBI Radio in Aussy (The Neos)

Today The Neos sent off their Rock single "Turn The Tables" to FBI Radio by dragonfly with way to many postage stamps for the journey. The winged monster just couldn't get enough of those Hobbit stamps lol. I really hope the parcel got tracked Gabe haha                
shout out to Volita for rocking the Glue Spraycan and getting those covers on haha!!!

Also a big thanks to our dad who took a day of work to roll up to the studio with us and produce the bands biggest songs so far. He really did a Rick Rubin and was sprawled out on the couch in the studio and just listened for a while like a Zen-master.

And while we were all struggling to cut the right performance he was chilling out. But then thankfully he saved the whole operation by telling us all to play TNT way slower. He also said the vibe of the track needed some more slacker rock, so he told us to not try to hard haha!          

By the grace of the rock devil it definitely did the trick as its been the bands biggest radio success. Some one even said it was being spun in China (just a joke). Well not quite but its a tune with a good pair of legs on it and thats what you want!!! :) You can stream the song below, download it for free or buy it off iTunes!! whatever you do remember to rock the f@ck on !!!

A Racket of a Road Crash!!! - NZ Rockers risk lives in Virtuous act as Good Samaritans

 The band weighing up how to push the Totalled Car while dis-regarding Giant Petrol Leak!!!

Breaking News:
There was a Racket of a car- crash in Mt Albert today folks. Being the good old Moss Rock minding my own business, heaven behold, in my very own neck of the woods,  the whole Rackets Gang out in full force trying to rock a totalled vehicle out of on coming traffic. Funnily enough the driver of the car was still lodged in her seat trying her very best to make the car go up in a flaming fire-ball by gunning the engine to the max. Unfortunately my loyal readers, even Toyotas can't drive themselves when both wheels are completely munched into the bumper were the license plate you'se to live.

Despite the potentially life threatening scene that occurred at the lethal intersection of New North and Alberton Ave, the Rackets men were the Auckland Rock band of the hour. The trio piled out of their car like an All Black rugby scrum against Italy and decided to lend their raw power to the rage against the machine. It really was a tectonic sight Oscar, Jeremy and Vince pushed with all their might. Indeed they did their very best to clear the car from oncoming traffic. And seriously I don't know about you but fuck AA call Rackets those dudes are onto it bro!! 


Anyway I didn't stay long enough to see what happened in the end hopefully rock prevailed over a half-destoyed pile of mangled metal. But hell, was I gonna hang around a leaking petrol bomb previously known as a car on the off chance that one of the gang might accidentally light a ciggie and send the whole bitch flying sky high, Hell No, but what a sight that would've been!!!
