WEST COAST MOANHEAD
OK, so I'm not patriotic/idiotic enough to defend the place I happen to survive in but let's get it straight, the Barringtown Gun Club did not get off on Townes Van Zandt. OK, but everybody else did. In fact, we partied till sam and if we could've found another guitar David (don't call me Kilgour) would've dueted with the man. We don't have any of his albums (TVZ) but we listened. Speaking as one ex-Fucklander (who can't spell too good — Selwyn) you guys'n'dolls are so waay cool you need freezers to make you human. Like the world exists without your borders. On the west coast you will meet people from everywhere who live here for choice — like choice. We travel to NYC for waay coolness, or Christchurch to buy food. We do not grow the best drugs in Aotearoa — Northland does, and we only let the misconceptions about rain and hickness survive to keep you wankers away. So, take a tip, duudes, visit some other place for your bullshit. Why not cross the bridge (the Manukau) and delve into your own cultural cesspool. Leave the coast alone or suffer the consequences. Love and dis-connection G. Campervan Smith West Coast
