Yeah. Thursday

!)W: Well, we're boplq to do a alnale to be releued both In Burope and In the .tate. .. well. The cd is buically a lei- for people to ftnd out what we aound Uke Uve. It ... recorded In a ....u .tudio. but it w.. just eiaht-tracka. and we aD played it all at once. I au ... record companiea have a aood idea what to expect live. We're hoping with that to en1arp our contacta around tbe world, and make it worthwhUe for a tour. later in 1991. We've bad quite a lot of aueceu In the coUeae radio circuit in New Zealand. Thata what we're bopina to .et onto in the State•• because other New Zealand bands have done well over here for the lut couple of yean.

AeM: Where would you Uke to play in Burope and the States it you aet back on a tour? ow: Bverywhere (Dave lauahs). AeM: Primarily coDe.... or clubs. or cburches or what? ow: We mainly pLav what you'd call secular venues. There's a small. growing New Zealand Cbristian muaic scene happening at the IIIOIIlent. It.tarted about five yean ago. ut I've never i'eaDy felt that CIIIIIfortabIe inelde that. I've always felt that God'. been NYina I should be out where there'. leaa Christiana. and that'a where I've a1wqe ended p performing and recording and whatever I've been doin. music. I've pt a job, aort-ot a part-time job. working th a cooperative of unemployed mullidans in Palmereton orth. We run a ....u recordfng atudio. b ..ically to help unemployed bands get their Kt tosether and stuff like that. So, I'm mainly working with street people, and ex-priaonere and people fraa the rider aide of ute. That's buically here my audience COIIIe8 from .. well.

eM: If ecaeone were reading thie interview. and they anted to talk to you about doing eomething at their school. uld they contact you directly or talk to a manager?

OW: They could contact me directly, but it would probably be euler it they went through Mike (Delaney). Becauae I keep pretty relU1ar contact with him and it would eave thea an international ton call, or whatever. eM: Is there a certain time-frame you'd Uke to pt k to the States? ow: At the moment it all dependa on what happen. to the cd. If I get a aood reaponse from it, then it would definitely be mld-to-late 1991. U it's slow. then It will be later.
