about

Recorded live at the Punters Club, Melbourne on 24 October 1999. These shows are the only time A Handful of Dust has performed outside New Zealand, and the only time since 1995 outside the South Island. On this occasion Alastair Galbraith played a long wire tensioned between the walls of the bar, one the very few times he has played long wires in an instrumental group setting.

A heartfelt tribute to a giant figure in our culture.
