Adventures in Musicland: Tom Scott in South-East Asia
The day after the final recording session for local hip hop outfit Home Brew's forthcoming double album was in the can, frontman Tom Scott jumped on a plane. Destination: Thailand, Laos and Cambodia, where he applied his musician's ears to sample the sounds, smells and tastes of new lands and different cultures.
1 - 2pm
Panel: Music in Print - Media Evolution 2011
Writing about music may well be like dancing about architecture, but there are still hundreds of column-inches dedicated to it each week. NZ music print - both magazines and newspapers - saw various machinations during 2011, with much behind-the-scenes desk hopping as various titles came and went, plus re-formatting and experimenting with multimedia publishing - all following similar developments being tried overseas in an effort to keep music writing economically viable. We canvas a selection of local music print editors.
Noel Gallagher
Noel Gallagher is in New Zealand with his new band High Flying Birds for the Big Day Out, with a few crowd-pleasing Oasis songs thrown into the set - we talk to him about his love of 60s Rhythm and Blues, and the in-fighting that marred Oasis.
2 - 3pm
Nirvana - Nevermind Part 2 of 2
Twenty years after the release of Nirvana's break-through album Nevermind, the remaining band members Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic, along with producer Butch Vig, reminisce about the album, and their pal, the late Kurt Cobain. They were joined by a live studio audience for a rare Q&A session, which was hosted by the Daily Show's Jon Stewart.

We pay our respects to some influential musicians who died this week.

Live: Dragon at the Power Station
In November 2011 fellow Ponsonby scenesters of the 70s Hello Sailor and Dragon performed together again for the first time in around 20 years, in a packed show at Auckland's Power Station. The home-town crowd welcomed Dragon to the stage with open arms and lungs as they worked through a classic set including Still in Love, April Sun in Cuba, Are You Old Enough? and a new one, Heart of Gold.
