So that's you in your avatar, and you dress up in PVC and play loud rock music?

It's me you need to see then, come alone and bring your PVC.

Alternatively, you could contact the rally organisers I suppose. I'm sure people here will be able to supply you with names etc.

[Vamp]

lol, I set myself up for that one didnt I ? lol

hey thanks for that , PVC rocks! some stirrers tends to think twice before takin you on if you have that ' im a hard assed rock chick , you better be able to step up if your gonna have a go' look lol

Try a PM to vulcanmad, he's one of the organisers of the March Hare.

You've also got the Nelson rally just around the corner from you in early November. Their contact details for last year were Nelson Road Touring Club, PO Box 1488, Nelson 7040.

Good Luck.

thank you far queue , thats really helpful - whoo hoooo, awesome ! I will start checking into it all tomorrow Good luck,whilst theres the odd good rally bands down here theres some absolute crap as well,seems many of them havent woken up to the fact that bike rallys attract a fairly diverse group of people as do bikes:doh:and many have long since grown tired of endless crap reneditions of smoke on the water no matter how old we get.

i know what you mean, I perform everything from 70s rock to later stuff a really wide range , i had a gig recently where the average age was 45 to 55 and i did the last two sets of newer upbeat numbers and a few couples actually came up and said it was refreshing to not hear ' all old crusty stuff' i saying that though , two of my all time favs to perform are 'i love rock and roll ' and 'roadhouse blues'
i just try to give a good show with some humour thrown in and just try to get everyone rockin and having a good time - although , guess thats gonna mean I cant go in the wet t like i usually do lmol
