Sounds of swingin' 60s on East FM, Saturday arvo...
Happy birthday Auckland, and to celebrate the long Auckland Anniversary Weekend we’ve got a British Invasion Special with guest DJ Vince Collins on tomorrow arvo’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time) on East FM.
Vince and I have been planning for months this show focusing on the famous British pop music Invasion of the 1960s and it’s time to spin some of his original records from his amazing vinyl collection.
So, if you’re a fan of The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Kinks, Animals, Yardbirds, The Who, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Dusty Springfield, The Zombies, Lulu, The Hollies, Donovan, Manfred Mann, Cilla Black, Tom Jones, Cream, The Troggs and many more, this is the fab show for you.
Vince saw many of these groups and artists perform in their heyday before arriving to live in NZ, and one of my favourite stories he has is the time he met The Byrds in Los Angeles.
He and his merchant navy mates were cruising around LA in their British street garments - the Beatle boots, the jackets, pants and haircuts, and The Byrds approached them and asked: “Where did they get their clothes?” How about that!
The She’ll Be Right Show with PJ beams out of East FM, East Auckland’s legendary community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally on www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
It’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. – PJ

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Someone knows these cats?
Hi neighbors , we found two cats wandering around near Sunderlands Road. Does anyone know who they belong to? They look a bit dirty and hungry, so we’re a little concerned about them. Please let us know if they are yours or if you recognize them. Thank you!
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
