These two icons of kiwi blues and rock are on the road in rocktober on a journey that will take them from invercargil to kaitaia…

They've been friends for more than three decades; shared billings at the

They are the living legends of Hammond Gamble and Midge Marsden. With more
than eight decades of combined experience in music and entertainment; the
Elder statesmen are touring together like never before, starting "From the
Bluff to the 90 Mile" theatre tour which kicks off in Invercargill on 9
October ; the old friends play Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington, Palmerston
North, Napier, Tauranga, New Plymouth, Hamilton, Auckland, Whangarei,
Kaitaia and concludes in Mangawhai.
