On a side Kiwi note (inspired by the Winston Peters comment), how do we all feel about the elections? I am a student and I think its great that student loans are getting the interest cut BUT... Labour annoys me. This needed to be done a long time ago, yet it gets brought out only at a time of potential voting crisis. They were talking about doing this at the elections 7 years ago but nothing has manifested until now.

I'm goddam sick of Labour. This will be my first election. Actually I'm sick of all politics in general.

We were quiite sucessful in terms of signatures, but not in achieving our goals. I heard it was due to a lack of venues rather than anything else

Lack of venues what a piss poor excuse. I really couldn't care less how many or big the venues were. I just want to see them live.

Otago PJ Fan here. Would be nice if they tour but bootlegs will have to do till then.

As for the election Labour > National. When National gets in I always get fucked over somehow.

Surely Auckland Town Hall would work with all of its seating? Not sure about venues in other cities.
