High School-aged shenanigans from future BnP members. Lonely Harris Club were firmly a party band with a focus on covers (specifically a large catalogue of Brian Jonestown Massacre songs, plus a handful of classic nuggets).

Flashback to August 26th, 2012. Photos from an All Plastics house party, celebrating the release of Shacklock Meth Party’s album with Zen Mantra, Ipswich, Anthony Drent and Raygun.
Rhett has since deleted most evidence of the band (and all his other bands) from the web, so it’s a bit of a blind alley.
Cool photos though.
Doctors was a slick and prolific band formed by Christchurch musician Rhett Copland who put out a whole heap of releases between 2009 and 2012, however Copland has now disappeared from the web, deleting all the previously available releases.
Brash, noisy, post-Earthquake Christchurch group who made a bit of a splash with the ‘Welcome to Mediocrity’ release on local label Melted Ice Cream in 2012.
A former plastic manufacturing business located in industrial Philipstown, All Plastics was originally leased by Nick O’Keefe of The Undercurrents some time in the 2000’s. O’Keefe, along with his band members (which included local sound-men Marcus Winstanley and Mikey Summerfield, plus Phantom Billstickers’ Jamey Holloway) began using the site as a recording studio and practice space.
Several house-party type shows were put on both inside and outside the studio space, before the last occupant (Rhett Copland of Doctors etc) left around 2013.
