Hey Russell, wonderful articles! In the Audio Culture Silver Scrolls 90's photos, that's me on the far right of the pic with Mike, Simon Morris, Steve Robinson and Tony Backhouse. I performed Anchor Me that year. I think that the lovely Kaye Glamuzina might be the beauty in the middle.

Karl du Fresne: the only person in the world to remain outraged by punk rock 40 years on.

When John Lydon heard that an anniversary reissue in NZ of the Sex Pistols' "God Save The Queen" was required by censors to change the original cover art – the one depicting…

If Karl du Fresne wasn't being so deadly serious in his latest column on "sex, drugs & rock and roll", it'd be in the comedy section.

He's such an ass.

It's nowhere near as funny as the blue fit he had on his blog after Chris Knox suggested The Beatles were…

They were world-famous in Auckland – or to be more specific, Ponsonby

He obviously slept through that period when Blue Lady was part of a nationwide ad campaign in the 90s – introducing the band to a new generation.

I enjoyed that Don McGlashan video above, simple yet effective, a…

And is that a younger Simon Morris? Maybe Tony Backhouse between Bronwyn and Kaye??

Don McGlashan's great explanation/demonstration of how songs from New Zealand sound different:

John Campbell was a bit bumbly at times in that lovable Lloyd Scott manner. It was a long night but the live stream had few if any hiccups.

There was highlight upon highlight. Bill Savesi's touching speech, Don McGlashan and his Death and the Maiden guitar lesson, Jordan Luck's quote…

There are a ton more images awaiting too Robyn. I spent large parts of the last 48 hours trying to get these online but was defeated. Thankfully I think we've worked through the issues (they were caused by our brand new search bar across the site – something I've been…

Photo nerdism: The two women in the Silver Scroll photo with M Chunn are (L>R) Bronwyn Teuton (sp?) and Kaye Glamuzina, both from Radio NZ National Music at that time. Naughty CMS, naughty!

Oh great, thank you. I'll update that. I didn't recognise Kaye in the pic!

BTW, I am loving all the Silver Scrolls goodies that Audioculture has been unveiling. The awards have always seemed a bit mysterious – probably just because they're an industry event, closed to the public – but all this history is like getting a look inside and seeing what's been going…

The Hall of fame is not (yet) a physical place, but it offers yet another set piece to look forward to each year.

My big complaint about the Hall of Fame: it's becoming very male dominated – three acts including women verses 14 without women. Or to look at individuals,…
