What's in a name?
05.11.09
This years batch of Soundstage shows are coming to an end, the final for the year see's Spartacus R performing:
"Soundstage is an experiment in music presentation aimed at showcasing Wellington's best artists. Tailored for fans (and artists) that prefer not to do battle with late nights and intoxicated punters, Sunday evening Soundstage gigs are the perfect chance to sit back with some friends, a glass of wine and enjoy the show.
Audiences benefit from seeing their favourite acts in an intimate, seated venue, alleviating annoying sightline issues that you often get watching bands in a bar. Not to mention the added benefit of a respectable 7pm start time."
If you're in Wellington on the 15th head along.
Yesterday's featured release was the new single from P-Money and by thanks to a link I picked up on Twitter, (cheers dubdotdash), I found this great interview with New Zealand's P-Money and the UK's P Money. Yes there are two... now usually when you come across two musicians using the same name terse legal letters are exchanged (or at the least they fight with knives over who wins the right to the name) with the usual result that one of the acts changes its name. Not in this instance it seems.
On Pete's blog he has a interview that was conducted between himself and his UK namesake by the UK's RWD Magazine. Read the P-Money vs P Money interview here.
Today's featured release comes from a musician everyone knows, one who has ten songs in APRA's Top 100 Songs which lead to the Nature's Best series of compilations, so without further adieu...
