Final Fly My Pretties Shows

Final Fly My Pretties Shows
A Dedicated Fan Is Getting A Fly My Pretties Tattoo

First Special Guest Announced
Special Ticket/Accom Package For Southerners

As excited Fly My Pretties fans prepare for the last Encore Shows, one extremely dedicated man from Christchurch will be flying up to Auckland on Friday 30th October to get a large tattoo featuring the Fly My Pretties fantail and imagery across his lower back in honor of the shows! The tattoo will be filmed by Loop in time lapse and done by Karla Hansen at Streetwize in Newmarket from 10:30am.

For media interviews with the tattoo fan and footage contact Penny Powell from Loop. Live footage from the May/June Fly My Pretties tour is also available.


Returning to New Zealand shores for the final Fly My Pretties - Encore Shows in December is the smooth and soulful Adi Dick.

Adi Dick is the first past Fly My Pretties member to be announced to join the full 17-piece A Story cast as a special guest for the Encore Shows

Adi Dick lay down the grooves in The Return of Fly My Pretties (2006) with the standout song ‘Get Out’ and also with ‘Foresight’. Adi Dick went on to release his debut solo album Our Place (2007), which featured his unique guitar looping techniques and gorgeous vocals. Since then Adi Dick has been plying his musical trade abroad in Europe and is looking forward to coming back to a beautiful Aotearoa summer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFaw3_3TYnU
