better late then never eh!…hopefully more on the way.

This one features our day trip to genuine ghost town, Body on our way to San Jose. Amazing.

Party at Tricia and Matts house! Tricia Lew of Bishop, California is THE most hard out supporter of artists from New Zealand anywhere in the world. She streams and listens to nz radio all day and pretty much keeps smokecds in business with orders of NZ released music, i am pretty sure she is the reason Flying Nun stayed afloat in the late 90s. She also knows how to throw a mean party and put on a pot luck dinner for the local community (a year TO THE DAY) since i was there last and again, the show was awesome!! Thank you so much to everyone in Bishop who made donations, gave us food, drink, partied and made the party so special. See you all again next year!

Death Valley was amazing! was like stepping onto Mars. Unlike any terrain i’ve seen anywhere else. Incredible sand, rock patterns. Lowest point of the lower 48 states of the US. It got pretty darn hot too, 102 degrees. If you go to vegas and need to head back to the coast, i thoroughly reccomend going via Death Valley.
