Why Come To Our Gig: 47 Diamantes and The Crackhouse 5

We're initiating a new feature here at UTR. Every Friday we'll take an artist or group of artists who are playing the coming weekend and ask them five, quick fire questions about the gig and what we can expect from their live performance. This weekend Wellington bands 47 Diamantes and The Crackhouse 5 will be taking the stage at Ink / Coherent along with Fistful of Gems (ex Tiger Tones) and Tommy Ill for the second outing of the Auckland is Killing Me series.

Here's what they had to say about their upcoming show, and if you like what you hear you can head over here to check out all the details.

47 Diamantes (Gemma Syme)

1. Interpret Auckland is Killing Me...

Umm Auckland is killing me...is a metaphor for a big dick. Auckland is the big dick and the "killing me" is the vagina. Can I say that? So basically coming to this show will be like the best root you wish you could have because it will be so awesome you can't even fit it all in to your senses.

2. What are you going to be playing?

I will be playing my vocal chords and underpants. Kelvin is the better half and will be playing multiple instruments at once. He's actually playing 3 times in one night so he better save his energy for our 2am slot.

3. What can we expect from the live show?

Ummmmm, technicoloured underpants, sass pants and beards.

4. Why should we come to Auckland is Killing Me?

YOU MAKE ME CUM, YOU MAKE ME CUMPLETE, YOU MAKE ME CUMPLETELY CRAZY.

5. Why should we come and see the other acts at Auckland is Killing Me?

Because otherwise I will clamp on your bitch tits and electrocute your 3 chest hairs.

The Crackhouse 5  (Matt Beauchamp-Buck)

An unusual, crummy kinda loose acronym neatly describing interesting shows. Kindly initialized, lazy loot of insanelyinfluential (Crackhouse 5) netherworld (Wellington) gringos.

2. What are you going to be playing?

"Rap" A 'Best of' collection of all our live sets. Our last ever like this.

3. What can we expect from your live show?

A 'Best of' live set. Probably a shout out for Brad (ZITZ RULE) and James (SPRING BREAK FOR LIFE) and Brad (BLINK LIFE)

4. Why should we come to Auckland is Killing Me?

A 'Best of' live set. Our last ever with this format. See why we are so influential and loved by all.

5. Why should we come and see the other acts at Auckland is Killing Me?

Cause they are really nice people and deserve the attention for the amount of time they've put in. Serious answer eh.
