Handle the Jandal article

Somehow ended up with a photo of me holding a jandal External link to my head on the front page of Wellington's biggest newspaper, the Dominion Post. It's a puff piece for the Handle The Jandal External link video competition and it mainly revolves around each of the musos involved talking about why we like jandals!? I was eager to get in a mention that, despite Kiwis having our own word for the footwear, they're by no means Kiwi things. Glad it made it into the text.

I was there as a past finalist for this video. It got second-runner up (aka third place) years back (2001?) and director Glen Atkins won Best Editing.

This year Ned Wenlock External link submitted the vid he did for the Malty Media External link track 'Mescaline Man'. Although Stuart and I were stoked by the vid, it didn't get into the finals. I guess I understand why the competition judges may have been hesitant to play the thing on a movie screen. It would be ... intense.

Thanks to Active for lining up the photo op and to the Dominion Post for letting me upload the pic.
