22.01.2022 Ed Kuepper with Jim White Friday 28th May, 2021 Doors 7pm. Show 8pm... MEENIYAN TOWN HALL Why didn’t anyone think of this before? Kuepper; the co-founder of ’70’s proto-punks The Saints, chief architect of the uncompromising Laughing Clowns and The Aints! and master songsmith over some 15+ solo albums, and White; the brilliant drummer of renowned instrumentalists Dirty Three, partner in the genre-defying Xylouris White and disciple of all things Ed. Together they will tackle 45 years worth of Kuepper catalogue with a twist that only these two game-changers could apply. Jim is one of the finest drummers I’ve seen and heard anywhere, totally gets inside of whatever he’s playing in an unpredictable and exciting way, been wanting to work with him for a long while’’ Ed Kuepper I learnt drums playing with Aretha Franklin and the Saints on my childhood home’s furniture. The Saints’ first three record, Laughing Clowns and Ed Kuepper’s solo work have been a huge inspiration for me in my drumming life and beyond, a well of inspiration I carry with me and can dip into at will. Jim White The show(s) will coincide with a trio of retrospective releases from Kuepper covering his solo years, Laughing Clowns and The Aints! All titles will be released in limited amounts, on coloured vinyl and with select CD issues also. It’s the first is a series of reissued releases from Kuepper as he takes charge of his own legacy whilst continuing to move forward. I like how Ed Kuepper like Lou Reed or Bob Dylan doesn’t want to replay the hits as was and at the same time doesn’t pretend to not have a past nor a future. In working with the musicians they play with, they revisit their material in new and old ways as well as creating new material and its not a binary problem, an ethic that seems relevant to all things to me. Jim White It will be Kuepper, Jim, but not as you know it Tickets : $52 Pre-Sale, $55 at the door (includes all bkg fees and GST).

08.01.2022 Sharon Jones I love the smaller clubs. I love the theaters. I love the festivals. There are things I don't like. At certain theaters, people can't get up and dance Sharon Jones ... May 4 1956-NOVEMBER 18 2016

08.01.2022 JT, 12 years ago today, in 2008! that first gig you played at Meeniyan bless my soul that first gig! You sang a song about wandering just knowing you would get there one day! You took your time a comin'! You told us about Jack your beloved Grand Daddy how he taught you to smell the roses. Your Ma Carol back in Tennessee. Townes, Hank, Sleepy John Estes, Lightnin Hopkins "My Starter Won't Start" You played rhythm bass and lead on your guitar (many people threw away their gui...tars that night!) said Jim Beam is not Bourbon. You sang about a new love in Auckland. That house in New Orleans.. When you closed that first gig (you brought us closer) of many you came off that stage near three hours after you had jumped up there. Brother, You had preached the gospel of love. You stood tall on the meeniyan stage like a warrior of love! Its sad you've moved on but your memory lingers here on the Meeniyan stage and in our hearts XXXX When I think of you I am reminded of a song Gillian and David sang on the Meeniyan stage a lil before you: Elvis Presley Blues I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died Just a country boy that combed his hair And put on a shirt his mother made and went on the air And he shook it like a chorus girl And he shook it like a Harlem Queen He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby Like you never seen, like you never seen, never seen I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died How he took it all out of black and white Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight And he shook it like a hurricane He shook it like to make it break And he shook it like a holy roller, baby With his soul at stake, with his soul at stake, soul at stake I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died He was all alone in a long decline Thinking how happy John Henry was that he fell down and died When he shook it and he rang like silver He shook it and he shine like gold He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby Well bless my soul, well bless my soul Gillian Welch

04.01.2022 Rediculously chuffed to tell you we are working on a roadmap to "Get Back" post Covid 19. Any of these posters you remember? Have any memories from twenty years of shows? Soon..............
