_Ed_ Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Its on Swanson Rd, in Swanson. Its pretty cool, and if you wear neon or white then you glow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Yeah, I have seen that. That sounds cool. What was the one good new ride like? Mine wasn't too bad - was either at uni or work for most of it, but that's not bad. At least it meant I had something to do! The new ride had carts that spun around on the arms plus the whole thing spun around. Would have been cooler if it moved up and down or something but otherwise it was fun spinning around without getting dizzy. All the spinning was horizontal by the way.

Spy Fox Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Seeing how there have been a few favourite album threads around, I was wondering what your guys favourite New Zealand albums are? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 That's a good question. I'd go for Gramsci's Like Stray Voltage and (if you count them as a NZ band, which I do), Nux Vomica by The Veils. Also really like both of Goodshirt's albums, and Tadpole's The Buddhafinger is a guilty pleasure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spy Fox Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I rented Nux Vomica from the library, but lost it when my whole library got wiped. Good would be in my top three at least. I also really like Pegasus by The Phoenix Foundation at the moment too, and Pot Boiler by The Verlaines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 The Sizzler is THE best ride! Its so much fun! It is, isn't it. We went on it twice as well as Scream Machine which is one ride that is always fun too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoBear Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Pegasus by Phoenix Foundation is such an amazing album. And I'd agree with Like Stray Voltage by Gramsci (no surprises there). I'd add off the top of my head: You've Got to Hear The Music - Dimmer Pipelines Under the Ocean - Pluto Amaze and Amazement - The Enright House (okay okay, so he's like part NZer, German, American whatever...but we'll claim him) ...there's just so much good kiwi music out there beyond Dane Rumble.

JoBear Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I just watched Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. It was a lovely movie.

Ghosty Ghost Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 My favourite NZ album would possibly be Submarine Bells by The Chills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkshineskitty Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 None at all? I like some individual songs, but I can't think of a whole album. Although I think in Intermediate I did like my friend's copy of an Elemeno P album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
