What people wrote about nights in Wellington

  • A guest 80% for Napalm Death · Fri, 15 Sep 2023

    Loud, young crowd attracted by worm rot, I figure. Great noise and screaming sound. Crowd was wild, a death trap for an old man but some elders were front row from wormrot putting the cool young things to shame. Smells were bad and very good too.
