+ | [[Hamapalooza]] was the first event organised and promoted by Swan, with [[Damien Fenton]], and was held at the Wailing Bongo in 1993. Swan used the event to launch his own band [[Bwa da Riddim]] to a decent sized audience. This event provided Swan with the springboard to become Activities Manager at the WSU, running, among other things, a heavy schedule of gigs and events with a strong focus on making local bands visible, as well as re-vamping the annual Orientation festival in 1996 and 1997. Through the Activities Manager role he was a member of NZCAN (National Campus Arts Network) and was instrumental in pushing through and co-ordinating a number of national university tours for Hamilton bands such as [[Mobile Stud Unit]]. In this role he was also involved with booking international acts to tour for the Orientation festival. Swan was also heavily involved with [[Contact 89FM]]. | ||
