Action-packed show tomorrow arvo! Three interviews are lined up and three artists and a festival highlight the She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time) on East FM.
It’s the first of three SBRs to feature artists on the bluestacular line-up for the Auckland Blues Festival, and we’re fortunate to be talking live with friends of the show, Laura Collins (and the Back Porch Blues Band) at 4.30pm, and Paul Ubana Jones at 5.30pm.
They’re both playing at the Auckland Blues Festival on November 12.
We’ll also be putting in the spotlight Grant Haua, the blues-roots ace (and formerly of the dynamic Swamp Thing), at 4pm, as he embarks on a huge national tour that will make him the hardest working man in show-business for a good six weeks. He’s playing at Kumeu Live tomorrow Saturday night.
To cap all that, we’re talking at 3.30pm with Lesley McLagan, also a live music fan and president of Rotary Highbrook, organisers of the upcoming Goodman Highbrook Fun Run Walk on November 2.
On Saturday, our Paul Ubana Jones becomes the most interviewed guest on She’ll Be Right, at three, over 13 years. He really is a master of his craft – a soulful blues-roots troubadour. The most gifted storyteller. Worldly.
Laura Collins, the legend, and her fellow legends – Wayne Mason on boogie pi an o, John O’Connor on guitar, George Barris on double bass and Pete Cogswall on back-porch drums, play cool groove blues and Louisiana strut – and it’s been a while since we’ve talked with Laura, so it’ll be great to catch up.

For information about the Auckland Blues Festival: www.bluesfestival.co.nz...

For tickets to Grant Haua’s concert at Kumeu Live, on October 22:

East FM is East Auckland’s diverse community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And this Saturday, we’re getting busy on variety. – PJ

Although its approx. 10yrs old, it’s still a comfortable couch. Both the left hand and right-hand arms have dents into the padding as we have always had cushions.

So … View moreAlthough its approx. 10yrs old, it’s still a comfortable couch. Both the left hand and right-hand arms have dents into the padding as we have always had cushions. The darn cat used the left-hand front corner as an intermittent scratching post. They have a scratching post. Ready to shoot her! So apart from the scratch area, it is in good condition.
The 4th image gives you the best idea of colour. We have it against a dark wall which didn’t make for good pics. Great for the spare room, games room and the kids.
