No sooner do we get home from the Matakohe Music & Arts Festival (Sun, 5 Jan.) than we're back on the road again - this time, south-east and over the Coromandel Range to surfside Whangamata, home of the legendary annual "Beach Hop" events.
We're really looking forward to this gig because the town should be still packed with summer holidaymakers and the Whangamata Club is also home to one of NZ's most active and enthusiastic rock'n'roll dance clubs, the Coastal Rockers.
