We are truly blessed to have one of NZ's finest men on the mic MC Rolex aka the Te Akau Stud surely one of the finest talents to emerge from the Northern side of the Raglan Harbour. Rolex will be following on from his Field Days Anthem "When Men Were Men, And Sheep Were Nervous with his entry for the new Country Calendar theme loosely based on the George Thorogood classic Baaaaaaaaa d to the Bone.

As if that wasn't enough for you lucky fellas we have a couple of other artists at the peak of their game. Getafix from Auckland and Blee a genuine contender over on a quick trip from Vegas.

This is State of Mind's first appearance in the Waikato since April and likely to be their only show this summer so don't miss the chance to see these legends of NZ Drum and Bass strut their stuff.
