Anyway yesterday I ran around in a flap grabbing various things for my costume...got my dress to the tailor to get taken in, bought tights and tops and white face paint Can't wait to get all geared up!

Will you be willing to pose for general pics melbournian?

Seeing the fans in costume is a prime reason that I'm flying all the way from Canada. I plan to ask *every single person* I see in full Enz gear to pose for a photo with me. Fair warning!

Well, just speaking for myself I'm up for photo call

You're booked

Plus Martine wants to get a photo of you and I together Finngirl, so I hope you'll be a willing participant in that too? (You sitting tied to a chair with me beaming next to you is not a relaxed, or willing, look).

Hope you'll be in the Enz make-up and outfits too?

I sure will be and that could be a big part of the reason why I don't mind my photo being taken.... I'll be in character

I'd be more than happy to pose for pics especially after all the effort I'll have gone through! I did a test run with the face paint and it seems a bit crackling, so tomorrow I'm going to experiment with adding oil to it. Might be best to catch me before the gig, before my face falls off...

Thanks for the hint melbournian

I'm just hoping I'll know you with make-up on. I may just have to resort to taking pics of anyone who has gone to the trouble to dress up.

I'll be in jeans and a Split Enz T

...I was going to describe, but don't really want to give away my costumes (yes I'm going to both Auckland shows and wearing a different costume each night!). Let's just say on the first night I'm wearing shorts and the second I'm wearing a dress

Well for posterity I'd like to get you in each of your costumes Its such fun to look back at things like that. Plus which I look at costumes and think to myself "why couldn't I have thought of that"?

I'm not great shakes as a photographer, but it makes a nice momento.

She'll be sitting with me in the same row as you on the 2nd night TR (and probably hanging around with me before & after the first show). I know you know me, and that I'm really hard to spot (I wish!), so you'll know for sure which costumed person our lovely Melbie is!

Groovy mk. So I know to look for the woman who's head and shoulders above everyone else, and the woman with the white face sitting next to her

With that in mind, I can't miss.

Split Enz spill the beans.

Thank you for the link! lmao throughout the entire article; especially the legs/tights discussion!

Poor Eddie with hay fever...*sends cyber-kleenex and benadryl*

Thanks for that Visitor What an entertaining read.

Loved Tim's comment about the amount of hairspray they're breathed in.

I bet those guys have a lot of very funny, very humbling, very intense memories of those days.

I'm so glad they're resurrecting the magic for those of you us that weren't born the first time around.

I've never had a problem with being the age I am, and for the most part am extremely grateful that I'm the age I am, because it meant that I did see some of it the first time round (when a lot of you little tackes wouldn't have even been born yet).

Excellent. Thanks for that.

well we are all here in NZ....Nigel is sitting next to me on the other computer in the foyer...
have to say the vibe from all the band members is truly excellent.

Pre tour reherasals went very well, and the guys eager to get up and play before some passionate crowds.

Dress rehearsal is tonight, meanwhile various band members are out and about around Christchurch -riding bikes, sipping coffee and buying books....love it here, all these trees, I think it's my favourite NZ city.

See some of you at dress rehearsal.

love
PG

*waves hello to gryph and Nigel*

I'll say it again...never have I been so excited for a series of shows I'm not even going to! It's all that Frenz enthusiasm radiating out of my computer (or something like that...)

Looking forward to more reports from all of you in NZ. I am living vicariously through you!

a bit of dress rehearsal was filmed and an interview today for TV ONE...so I'd expect that on Tv in the next few days..great Noel Cossie article in NZ Herald today.
