Gripper + Bazooka: Auck, Ham, June 2,3,4 -2017

[Bolshy]

Alright geezers, its still 8 months away but i'm gonna post this up now cos its always good to have everything sussed well in advance and i'm hoping for a little bit of wholesome Punkas help/advice.
Confirmed details so far:

Queens Birthday Weekend 2017

Friday June 2nd, Whammy Bar, Auckland
Gripper, Bazooka, Master Blaster, Scumbeat, More TBC

Saturday June 3rd, Nivara Lounge, Hamilton
Gripper, Bazooka, Spiteful Urinator, Wizz Kids, Contenders.

Sunday June 3rd.....???
Anyone got any ideas for this? We are not fussy AT ALL and would jam ourselves into a state house bathroom if it meant a pissed up good time. So far i have tried the Yot Club in Raglan, The Old Stone Butter Factory in Whangarei and Rex had a bit of a scout round the Coromandel, but unfortunately they all fell through. Another Auckland show is a possibility but would rather play a different town if possible. Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers, Bolshy

There's also the Sawmill Cafe in Leigh, and Roadhouse in Morrinsville. Bands play Great Barrier Island sometimes as well.

VERY STOKED WITH THIS POSTER FROM OUR BEAUTIFUL FRIEND XOE HALL

[Dixon Cider A.C.]

Unreal poster

[TimShadbolt]

I think that's the darkest thing I've seen Xoe do. Very, very cool.

[the croc]

That poster is rad

[Bolshy]

I think that's the darkest thing I've seen Xoe do. Very, very cool.

Same here! I'd mainly just seen all her colour work, murals and paintings, so i was blown away by this, although its not that surprising considering how talented she is.
This was very reasonably priced too so if anyone wants a poster done then hit her up, easy enough to find online.

VERY STOKED WITH THIS ULTRA COOL POSTER DRAWN BY OUR FRIEND LANI AITKEN FROM ABSOLUTION TATTOOS

[Dixon Cider A.C.]

Fuck yeah studded codpiece. Hopefully this means coromandel shows again

[Bolshy]

And here is the poster for the Auckland show, a mind-blowing masterpiece from the prolific and talented Sera Helen! Again we are humbled and eternally grateful. And what a lineup it is!!
