Hamish Kilgour won a NZ music award in 1992 for this painting which was on the cover of Flying Nun comp. It’s a favourite. It March 17 - Hamish’s birthday. #theclean #nzmusic#aotearoamusic#nzpainting#flyingnun#nzculture

David Kilgour playing the mighty Ibanez at Port Noise in Lyttelton last evening. The guitar he bought off Alec Bathgate in Dunedin in late ‘70s with which he created that signature sound for The Clean. #nzmusichistory#theclean#alecbathgate

Making two hands count - Peter Jefferies at the Vogelmorn Bowling Club, Wellington. Dipping back into Nocturnals and This Kind of Punishment catalogue. Solo gems. A very good set. Playing with Simon Joyner from Grapefruit records who’s visiting from Omaha, Nebraska. #peterjefferies#nzaltrock

Re-released on vinyl for the first time since 1994. A great day for Clean freaks. #mergerecords#flyingnunrecords#theclean#indierock#nzaltrock

I thought my first post on BSky should be a bright one. So here’s Stuart Page’s poster for the Great Unwashed’s nutty/inspired tour of the country in 1984.
