I’ve done 4 proper gigs so far with 2 bands, and joined in on a few songs here and there with my bro’s band. Good times! When the singer gets back from his travels, we’ll start gigging again. :-)

How I did it: I just asked around a lot, answered adverts etc. Some don't work out, but then some do. Don't take it too seriously - it's supposed to be fun. Get out there and do it.It's very rewarding when you practise with the band and then perform - - we had a mosh pit going!! Can't wait to start gigging again and I think I will always be in bands now. Read how I did it…
Do it! I can’t imagine another single thing thatcan potentially give so much freedom. My life would be so different if I didn’t drive. No job, couldn’t see friends, couldn’t travel etc. Everyone should learn to drive.
Did the K Bridge (tandem), and the ledge over Queenstown itself in the dark – both were awesome. Was supposed to do the Nevis High Wire, but it was too windy! You get a special deal if you book all three at once – works out much cheaper. The ledge over Queenstown is slightly different in that you are strapped by your waist, so you don’t get the headache afterwards and can do somersaults if you want!
