Adam is one person for whom the allure of music and live theatre is so strong that he dedicates his twitter name to it. Not just pre-recorded music that can be downloaded with ease but the experience of hearing and seeing music and its performance. The magic that comes from being in that one place when instruments combine to create a sound that completely permeates your being.
@AdamGoodallYes is a mighty fine bloke from Dunedin. Arguably the home of some of New Zealands greatest ever alternative bands. He has a very sharp wit and some interesting views of the world. He's not one to tag along with whatever fad happens to be top of mind for many others -
"The America's Cup is now The Kid On The Playground Who Always Whined That You Weren't Playing Go Home Stay Home The Way He Said's Cup"
and he isn't afraid to say so. And I especially like this take on politics mixing with twitter -
"If God was that good why did he let Tau Henare have a twitter account"
But don't let us stop there. No, let us look further at another tweet from an entirely different angle -
"(the new lorde track is p cool, not as cool as the new janelle monae album but still p cool)"
Adam is an all round good guy who will keep you on your toes. His tweets are fresh, original and very often thought provoking too. How I describe him in 10 words or less I hear you say? Gamer, fresh, thought provoking, stirrer, alternative, good taste, opinionated, intelligent.
Just like his musical taste Adam marches along to his own beat. And I have every hope that in January next year I will have the opportunity to meet this outstanding community member at the one and only Laneway Fest in Auckland. I am picking he will be there if this tweet is anything to go by -
"this week is the week i commit to memory the lyrics of all the songs on chvrches' debut album"
Dunedin - get your teeth into it!
