Childrens Hour at the KA - Fri 31st - Who went?
Posted: Sun Jul 31, 2005 1:31 pm
I'd never heard of Chilrdren's Hour before but my recent interest in New Zealands alt/goth lineage was enough for me to part with $25 to see these guys. They were bloody good!!! I wouldn't say every song was a stunner but I really appreciated what they did. Wonder if their reunion will be permanent? We need more bands like this in NZ, Joy Division with a big twist of Flying Nun thrown in.

It was a really cool gig, I enjoyed Childrens Hour and YFC, but I actually kinda liked that first band more. The songs were real poppy and catchy, were they called Eskimo? Does anyone know anything about them?

The bassist from Eskimo is Rob Mayes from Failsafe Records in Christchurch, he's been in Dolphin, Throw and heaps of other bands.... he was playing bass for Childrens Hour as well. Mike the drummer for Eskimo is also in YFC !! ..... a bit of a star studded band really.

Lol, no wonder they sound cool Very Happy

1 more question, do they have a cd or website or something like that? I'm not very good at this internet thing so any help would be great. Mr Green
