Had a great kōrero with Hugh Allan from about all things Mothra, new material, and how well guitars stand up to being run over.
Catch them this Friday in Welly and Saturday in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland opening for Hötchiwitch (a Handsome + Helmet tribute with Peter Mengede) where Hugh will also be joining the headliner on second guitar! My tickets are sorted, are yours?

“The new ‘inverse vaccine’ removes the immune system’s memory of one molecule. While such immune memory erasure would be unwanted for infectious diseases, it can stop autoimmune reactions like those seen in multiple sclerosis, type I diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, or Crohn’s disease, in which the immune system attacks a person’s healthy tissues.”

As a doctor, if you’re arguing that you should be able to expose patients to COVID because infection control annoys you, you should not be a doctor. Find a new career.
