Spammers, and anyone who aids, abets, supports or purchases from them all need a bullet.

You need a sedative. Besides, capitalism is the opposite of hippyism Mr Basher.
You need to define your stance.

Motorcycles and guitars go together naturally.
I'm glad I heard about it.

If this had been posted by a member who was excited about it, fine. But someone has made an account on our forums specifically to post about a commercial event, that is in no way bike related. That's Spam, no if's, no buts, no maybes.

A warm cup of "chill the fark out" would be in order mate.


In NO way bike related? Interesting. No one has EVER put motorcycling & hard rock together before???


Pull ya head in

Cheers for the support guys, I am regular reader of these forums, especially after the Motorhead gig. It's not like I am posting in the forums to do with biking, I have posted in the forum for all things non-biking related, so I don't see the problem

So for those of you who do care here is the latest news...

Just a polite note..

Under the new spam laws you cannot email people unless they have actively submitted their own details. Emailing Adding them to a mailing list having gleaned their details from a mate who entered them is not allowed - regardless of having the unsubscribe feature.

I'm not trying to cause problems or be a smart ass - but being a NZ based event; emailing NZ based people you really run the risk of someone complaining - and it would be terrible to see a new (and exciting) event like this fall foul of legislation and you guys coping a fine.

I wish you all the best for your event - I'm sure it will be a great one.

Just realised that the date for this event is the 15-19th of July - not the 25-26th of May as I somehow had gotten into my head...

Anyone contemplating going there?
