In fact, they will be carrying memories of the festival and Dunedin around forever.
The couple got tattoos to remind them of their time here.
"It's our first time in this part of New Zealand and we love it here so much we wanted to take a piece of New Zealand with us," Mr Kalsi said yesterday.
"The one on my right hand means 'safe travels around the world'. I don't know what the other one means. I got them on my hands so people see them when I greet them. It's the universal symbol for peace and prayer and welcome and goodbye."
The Punjabi dhol drummer also got a treble clef tattoo on his neck from Dig A Tattoo in Princes St.
For Mrs Kalsi, there were more prosaic reasons for her heart with wings tattoo on her shoulder.
"I already had two tattoos for two of my children. But my other son, Harry, would tease me 'You don't love me as much as the others, Mum, because you don't have a tattoo for me'.
"So, I'll wait till the next time he comes out with that punchline and then I'll show him."
Dhol Foundation members Dav Daheley and Onkar Phull also got tattoos in Dunedin.
"This is the best part of the world I've been in and I wanted to remember it," Mr Daheley said.
The Dhol Foundation played in the Regent Theatre last night and return to London today.
