Thank you 6anbatte , where are you from? Oh and NZ stands for New Zealand. Reggae/Dub has really influenced the music scene here during the last couple of years. Many artists/bands/dj's that are worth checking out.

Hi love.light.peace

Welcome from England.

Nice to see the reggae vibes are reaching as far as New Zealand.

Hope you enjoy this wonderful site, you will have the pleasure of meeting some very friendly and knowledgeable people.

Guess you could say you have Mauried into our reggae family.

Sorry guys, I know, the jokes are getting worse.

Cheers Dave. You should acquaint yourself with some New Zealand reggae/dub as its well worth listening to. Check Fat Freddy's Drop , Kora , Trinity Roots and Salmonella Dub.
Trinity Roots had a number 1 in Jamaica a couple of years ago I think.
Where in England you at Dave?

I'm in Christchurch and it's 1:47 am. I'm studying , drinking coffee , indulging in some herbal remedies and listening to a bit of Sly and Robbie.

Hey Dave,
I'm still struggling to cope with how nice everyone is on this forum.

What's the music scene doing in your neighbourhood? Any international acts?

I seen Mad Professor , Lee Perry and The Skatalites in the last year over here. Which is quite exceptional for this one-horse town.
