Saddened to hear about the passing of Martin Phillips of The Chills, one of the really great guitar bands to come out of NZ, or indeed anywhere. I saw them only once, in the mid-90s (I'd hazard a guess at 1995) in either The Melkweg or The Paradiso in Amsterdam. Brilliant, as you'd expect. Wish I still had the t-shirt.
RIP, Martin.
Oh, and while I'm here, I'm still looking for donations for my half-marathon in support of Alzheimer's UK!

Sorry to hear this news. Heavenly Pop Hit is one of my favorites. Jealous that you got to see them back then, though I suppose I was negative one year old in 1995.
