Dancehall Cinema
- The Wellingtonista
- For those of you more inclined towards UK roots reggae culture than euro-beats, there's a little something for you at the Film Archive this Thursday 7th. The Archive, in collaboration with NiceUp - local reggae forum and dancehall specialists - present the premiere Australasian screening of Musically Mad, a doco that examines sound system culture and the UK roots reggae scene, interviewing some of the shining lights of the community, past and present, and providing an historical context for the Caribbean-influenced musical culture.

Nationals - A View From The Back
- Trust Porirua City Band
- This year - as every year *wink* - our Super Percussion Extraordinaires were revved up for another Brass Band Championships! This year was slightly different as we had two ‘green’ members, Tamara and Dick, who were yet to experience the challenges of being a Percussionist at Nationals.
