Toi Ora 10th Annual Gig
Concert at newly refurbished Ellen Melville Centre
Was thinking that blogging is very last week and not cool. Then it occurred to me that those are great reasons to keep going.
It’s amazing how kind you people have been to me I need to write to you often
The good news is that i have something to write about now that it is possible to return to my fav venue in its hugely improved condition.
The gig is on Friday 27 October in the Pioneer Women’s Hall at the Ellen Melville Centre, Freyberg Square, High Street, Auckland Central.
I have good memories of my first show there. This one is gonna follow that formula. Simple renditions of my best songs old and new. Instrumentals and a bit of a chat. We might even invite a guest or two. Please make this kind of event sustainable and try to turn up or sponsor someone else to come in your place tickets are $20 as before .
Starts 7 pm and finishes late. Call me if you need more info 02102592919 or feel inclined to be on the sales team. Let’s get the word out. The more the merrier
Very grateful to Audrey Van Ryn, Andrew Howie and Phil Recordon for without their help this concert would not be possible. Also Clive for his great insight at times where I had no insight into my own behaviour.
I love both street and stage but the stage is less distracting for me and way more comfy for listeners.

It’s about the ideas and being prepared to share them
Thank you readers for supporting me in 2016.
Wonderful support and encouragement.
You brought me great happiness
We got the concerts underway
We got the equipment needed guitars that match different styles
Recordings also….But I have yet to promote these

Facundo made two albums of my live playing for release on his Argentinian label
He records for two days and VOILA he makes an album
His point is very valid.
The way things are now you can capture music easily
People want that
And if we musicians and writers of songs and music don’t give it to them…
why the people just help themselves or turn their attention towards artists who are more generous with their muse
It’s not about the equipment anymore
it’s about the ideas and being prepared to share them.
If you need me call 02102592919 I am happy to play at gatherings the smaller the better and also happy to teach my style. Your feedback would be most appreciated as I am keen to play more
Have a great Christmas and don’t let the Coke pimp convince your kids to love things and use people( instead of the other way around.)
Thank you Jason for managing the site. Good job!
