NZ Music Industry Info Bulletin - 17 Dec 2007

NZ Music Industry Info Bulletin

This will be the last bulletin until probably mid-late Jan. As it turns out I am very excited to be moving to Whangarei to take up the position running the Arts Promotion Trust in Northland (www.apt.org.nz) starting on 3 January. The organisation has been set up to develop the creative industries in Northland.

One of the immediate items on my agenda is to get Northland on the touring circuit. So expect to hear from me soon about that. In the meantime, if you are busy organising your tour before I’m in touch, please feel free to flick me an email and I may be able to assist.

It is also looking possible I will be working on a music industry project in Auckland – more about that as information comes to hand.

Please feel free to forward on and/or reprint part or all of the newsletter with a credit to Temple NZ Music Industry Info Bulletin www.temple.co.nz. Back issues are at www.temple.co.nz

If you have anything you would like included in the newsletter next year (FREE!), please flick me an email. I don’t include gig listings, sorry, unless it involves an “opportunity” eg open mics

Free to good (or in fact, any) home – old and working inkjet printer

Canon BJC6000. Old and has so seen better days, but still working no probs. Plus it has a very interesting Temple history. I also probably can find the manual for it as well

I’m only ditching it because it doesn’t have a USB connection, so doesn’t work with my new computer.

The red cartridge has run out, but the others are all about ½ full.

Will need to be picked up from Devonport sometime before xmas.

Flick me an email if you want it

Auckland hard rock band are looking for a talented vocalist with song writing ability. Successful single and video release with second single recording and video shoot beginning of next year. Professional band management and label offer from overseas.

You need to be a fun loving but committed person aged 20-28. Music influences: Foo Fighters, Tool, Sevendust, Crowded House, Van Halen, Shihad, Opshop.

Wanted!! Lead Vocalist, Bass Player & Guitarist Wanted to join Guitarist and Drummer in joining us form a Hard Rock / Rock n Roll 'originals' band with big hooks, mean solo's, anthemic chorus's.

We feel that NZ music is in a sad state with barely any decent rockin' bands that play good Rock N Roll / hard Rock. Everything seems like Metal / Hardcore / Punk / Emo / Indie etc, and not enough balls to the wall ROCK. Its a sad state pretty much and we hope to do something about it...

We also both play in an 80s Rock 'tribute' / covers band 'Maskara' - which plays the likes of Skid Row, The Cult, Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Kiss, Guns n Roses, Cinderella, Alice Cooper - all of which we love and are inspired by.

We do love the Straight-ahead hard rock elements from the late 80's to 90's rock, but also want to modernise that sound and jam up our own vibe as well as a bit of Stoner Rock and the Blues thrown in the mix...

We love the above bands, as well as bands like Motorhead, Silvertide, Wednesday 13, Airbourne, Fu Manchu, Nashville Pussy etc....

Must be in your 20's , have good gear, has transport, committed, experienced, professional , and easy to be in a band with! Along with being reliable and dependable - as alot of musicians are'nt!

Mostly practice Sundays, and Thursday / Wednesday nights. Based out Pakuranga way.

For more information or if you want to jam, email us on Info(at)maskara.co.nz

Teacher administrators 2008 Applications are invited from teachers wishing to work with the National Education Monitoring Project as teacher administrators. The NEMP wishes to engage 96 teachers from around NZ to assist with the administration of assessment tasks during the third and fourth terms of 2008. This is a valuable opportunity for professional development in the area of assessment. The Educational Assessment Research Unit at the University of Otago operate the project under contract to the Ministry of Education. The goal of the project is to get a broad picture of the achievement and other educational outcomes of representative samples of NZ school students. Each year about 2800 randomly chosen children at Y4 and Y8 from a national sample of 250 schools take part in the assessment programme which involves a wide range of tasks, including practical hands-on activities. The learning areas to be assessed in 2008 are reading and speaking, music, and aspects of technology. Teachers working as assessment administrators are engaged by the project for 6 weeks, which includes attendance at a one week national training workshop in Wellington followed by 5 weeks of visiting schools to administer assessment tasks. Teachers work in pairs and, in some regions, will need to be away from home for some of the assessment weeks. Preference will be given to those who have teaching experience at the Y4–8 levels, and who have interests in the curriculum areas being assessed. Teachers working with Y8 students will be required for uninterrupted engagement during the period 18 August–26 September; teachers working with Y4 students during the period 13 October–21 November 2008. The project covers the full cost of teacher release, training, travel and accommodation. There is no cost to schools or their boards of trustees.
