Sweetman Podcast: Episode 42 - Nick Bollinger

An in-depth chat with music journalist/author and musician Nick Bollinger. We talk about his brand new memoir, "Goneville" and the process behind writing it - including his time completing a Masters in Creative Writing. We talk too about the characters in the book (Rough Justice, Rick Bryant, Bill Lake, Blerta, Red Mole and co) and we talk about his life and career as a writer of music reviews, occasional musician and the host of RNZ's The Sampler. We talk about the New Zealand that's not there anymore, about grieving and nostalgia; about the way we treat our artists here.
