Dance for free at Uxbridge in Howick this Saturday
Calling East Aucklanders who dig a dance – there’s a free concert by Little Earle and Friends (Count Bassy and Drummer Darryn) at Howick’s Uxbridge Arts & Culture this Saturday, February 25, from midday to 2pm.
Little Earle says their set has “groovy hits and tasty obscurities” by American rhythm n’ blues and soul music artists such as Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Sam Cooke, James Brown, Bo Diddley, John Lee Hooker and Howlin’ Wolf.
“The Uxbridge Arts & Culture concert is one of a series of gigs in community centres Auckland-wide, designed for dancers of all ages,” he says.
“Thanks to the pandemic, many kids have never seen live music, and it’s not easy for older folks to make it to late-night concerts in inner-city venues.
“In response, these concerts, proudly supported by Manatu Taonga, the Ministry for Culture and Heritage, are accessible, easy-going and best of all free to the public.”
Right on, Brother, Little Earle. Cats will be swingin’ – PJ

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
