The Ministry of Folk is a wonderful Auckland music institution and its next excellent concert line-up is Fables, Dave Alley and resident band Hoop on Sunday, February 18, at the fabulous Movespace Rooftop, 473 Dominion Rd, Mt Eden, from 7pm.

We’ll be talking live at 1pm with Al Baxter, of Hoop, the motivated band hosts and organisers of Ministry of Folk concerts. It’ll be good to catch up with Al, a very active contributor on the Auckland folk music scene, and play Hoop recordings including their most recent single, Want This Thing To Last.
Dave Alley is described as ‘a genre defying artist whose mostly acoustic guitar based music stems from roots, world, blues, rock, reggae, funk, folk, and South Pacific styles’. He’s a talented multi-instrumentalist who’s on tour and with a bit of good fortune we’ll be able to talk with him live at 2pm. His 2020 album One We Play is outstanding.

Fables is the well-established folk music entity of Jess Bailey, who’s also a very talented art artist. We’ll play tracks from her 2018 album Portraits, which features appearances by NZ’s leading folk musicians.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
31.9% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
68.1% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
