2 extra great tickets for Friday's Bruce Springsteen's Tribute Show

Michael from Newtown

Greetings and Salutations -

This Friday, a 9 piece Bruce Springsteen tribute band will be playing at the Opera House at 7:30. The 3 hour show will feature all the songs from Bruce's first album, "Born to Run".

I was fortunate to have seen Bruce in Miami just after the album's release. It was one of the greatest concerts that I have ever witnessed. While no one except those from New Jersey had heard of him, everyone from the 2,500+ audience stood up from the first song and remained that way through the show. If Friday's band is half as good, it will be a show you will never forget.

I am going and have 2 extra tickets. Each is $70. You may purchase them either together or separately. If you are interested, please let me know through the website ASAP.

Best wishes - Michael

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
