I’m in the middle of an Ashes to Ashes kick, and I found this spoof which I thought was quite amusing.

Masuya – Salad
The Japanese aren’t really known for their salads, but they actually eat more of it than you think. We started off the meal with a simple teriyaki chicken salad, with what might be sesame dressing. And of course, our cameras were at the ready.
Masuya – Drinkie
It’s Friday night and a buddy’s birthday, so we headed to Masuya’s, a good Japanese restaurant in O’Connell St, for a feast. I’d only been once before for lunch, but it’s birthday girl’s third visit. To start off, a colourful drinkie. Cheers!
Kaikoura – Sunset
A last view of the mountains, and a farewell to Kaikoura. On my last evening, the mountains and light put on quite a show.
Kaikoura – It’s a Seal’s Life
The wildlife isn’t just in the sea, but also on land, too. Walking around the peninsula, I came across quite a few fur seals having a kip in the sun. And not a bad place to have it, don’t you think?
Kaikoura – Midday
The next day was perfectly clear, and the mountains certainly looked different when the sky is blue.
Kaikoura – Whaling Around
Kaikoura is famous for its abundant marine life, especially the whales that live in the area all year round. Unfortunately, the proved to be quite elusive when I visited. There were plenty of dusky dolphins though.
However, during the 3 hour cruise we managed to only spot one whale. I later found out that they ran into 22 whales the day after. Well, dems de breaks.
White Album Concert – Guitar Solo of the Year
Too right it is. Chris Cheney strikes again on While My Guitar Gently Weeps. This is one of the many highlights of the gig. The man is a machine when it comes to solos. Tell you what, it might even beat Eric Clapton’s solo on the original.
Kaikoura – Sunrise Beachscape
I had to get up early the next morning to go on whale watching. Gave me a few moments to soak up the crisp air on the shingle beach.
White Album Concert – Chris Cheney
Did I tell you that I went to the White Album Concert a few months ago? Four Aussie artists (and a huge backing band) performed all the songs The Beatles’s double White Album in one concert. I’ve just found some fantastic videos, and would like to share some with you.
The first is Helter Skelter by Chris Cheeney. It all sounded brilliant from the back, but this really shows what a madman this guy really is on the guitar.
