A Strange Days Night

50 years ago the Beatles performed two concerts in the Auckland Town Hall and created hysteria. To celebrate the anniversary of these concerts, Mike Chunn (former Split Enz member) reenacted the experience by bringing together New Zealand icons including Jason Kerrison, Geoffrey Chunn, Peter Urlich and Tim Finn and have them form their own individual Beatles band.

I was fortunate enough to be a member of the Mike Chunn Band and we entertained the crowd with two songs; Dear Prudence and Within You, Without You. Weekly rehearsals in Auckland began at the start of Term 2 and together with the other performances combined, the night is one to remember. The highlights for myself include performing on stage with such talented and iconic people in a packed Auckland Town Hall, the fun that came within the rehearsals and hanging out in the Green Room with these New Zealand celebs.
