FINAL CALL...FRIDAY 20th

Hi y'all,
Just a quick note to confirm whats happening this coming Friday we have every thing in place and now all we need to do is turn down the lights and let the show commence.


The programme times are to be as follows (give or take)


Doors Open - 7.00pm

Pinna - 7.45pm


Gus - 8.15pm


The Nukes - 9.00pm


Superturtle - 10.00pm

As usual at Tree Tops we will provide nibbles and soft drinks, anyone wanting to drink anything else please BYO bottle. It is always use full to bring your own cushion if you have a bony back -side as our supply usually gets used up fairly quickly. Entry is by recommended Koha of $10.00 (or more)

To provide a fantastic venue for artists to perform at we request that noise in the main room is kept to a minimum during performances and if you want to chatter use the deck or move out the front of the building.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING, TREETOPS IS IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA AND THEREFORE IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO PARK SAFELY TO ALLOW THE MOVEMENT OF LOCAL TRAFFIC.

To get you in the mood we have included below some info on this months artists. This show will be opened by our girls Pinna who will be trying out some new tunes for our pleasure.

Superturtle (Review)

The Groove Guide 24-30 sep Martyn PepperellCategory: Music

....Auckland outfit Superturtle represent one of the smoothest aural and visual presentations of melodic alt-pop I've ever come across in the local market. Combining a warm , analogue production aesthetic with extensive theremin , vibraslap , Hammond organ , mellotron , electric rhodes piano , strings , brass , synths and extensive vocal harmonization over the holy trinity of guitar , bass and drums , Superturtle have definitely come up trumps on this release.When whimsical songwriting and delicate melodic soundscapes come together with a proper sense of musicality it's always a good look , especially if you throw in some soul redolent rhythms into the mix.All Our Friends/Never Came Back represents all these qualities and more.Included in the package is a full length album / multimedia DVD disc which well and truly seals the deal.Superturtle . co-signed , I'm sold.

The Nukes

Performances are always fun and engaging with a line-up which includes: Laingholm resident David Theille, affectionately referred to as ‘Snapper’, together with Ben ‘country boy’ Collier from the wild west of Woodhill, and the ‘Fingers of fire’ himself Dave Parker(founder of the Titirangi Festival of Music). Look to see them around Auckland over the next few months then nationally sometime this year. Audiences never fail to be entertained by this group of Ukulele enthusiasts ‘the Nukes’.

Gus Simonovic

Gus Simonovic has lived in other countries and spoken other languages. Currently he resides in Auckland, writing and performing his poetry inbroken English. Apart from his own poetry collection, "PrintableReality", his poetry has been published in a number of NZ magazines andanthologies.
