• "Start with Spaceman so the journey can begin closely followed with Clav Dub to rev up the punters! Although I don't think it really matters how you begin, it will be amazing.... just remember to save a real pearler for the finale!"

• "The 2007 Vodafone Music awards was the first place I heard Hollie's captivating voice live. A mesmerizing, genuine artist with an obvious passion for music. Stunning"

• "I am nostalgic for ignorance! The time of your life when you didn't know about global warming, poverty, war, politics, maliciousness, crime and greed. Being oblivious to the stresses of today's society, world and people. Being happy with what you have and not even knowing about, let alone coveting, that which you may never obtain. I am nostalgic for the freedom of childhood as I know not only can I never have it back - the children of today will never know such freedom. Ignorance is bliss."

• "The Ultimate 2010 BDO (if anything was possible...) Queen( this needs no explaining! Old, young, male, female, it doesn't matter who you are - there's a Queen song you LOVE and know all the words to!), Muse (apparently the best 'new' live band in the world and they opened the new Wembley Stadium so someone knows how talented they are!), The Beatles (or even just Paul McCartney - saw him at Glastonbury singing Hey Jude as a finale....beautiful and over 80,000 still humming this tune the next day!), Jimi Hendrix (such talented musicians are few and far between), UB40 and Bob Marley and the Wailers (at Ragamuffin 2008 these sets almost brought tears to my eyes - nothing like thousands of voices and swaying lighters all in time!) Homegrown - there is now so much talent but the pick of the crop for me are - Fat Freddy's Drop, Black Seeds, Shapeshifter, Kora, Katchafire and of course, for some real entertainment and put everyone in a fantastic mood.... Flight of the Conchords!"

• "The bush is always such a peaceful educational and awe-inspiring place to be. One of my most favourite times in the bush was taking my class of 26 kids (aged between 8-10) on a real bush adventure! Finding native trees and listening to native birds, hunting out weta accommodation in dying trunks and being able to give a group of 'city kids' the tools, time and opportunity to build their own bivouac out of things around them. The excitement, their faces, and the knowledge that they themselves are inspired to, not only to return to the bush, but also to protect it are what makes this my best bush experience"

• "Good People - why? There is no better way to sum up a kiwi Summer than everyone pitching in with a positive vibe, soaking up some sun with the ideal music to bring everyone together! That's what this song is to me - Kiwi music at its best! It makes you stop and appreciate not only the music but how people react and interact with it."

• "Tony Veitch's ex is pretty so it's odd that he put her in a wheelchair. Pretty odd comment altogether"

  on Panic At The Disco 5 years ago

• "From Whangarei.... moved to London (Yes, the other side of the world!) only to meet a Hamiltonian boy to lure me back to NZ! Go figure!"

  on Lenny Henry 5 years ago

• "Maybe making sure that I stop at the SPCA to also donate cans on my way to the gig will make a difference to an animal, even if it is just for one day"

• "Hey where'd the rest of my poem go??? I'll try to finish it again from memory... Extra additions, I have one or two Certainly some bling and a feather boa or two Fake eyelashes, eyeliner and definitely blush I know I won't be getting ready in a rush So I'm all dressed up and I know where I want to go Off to see the 'Adventures of Priscilla' show I'd hate for my ensemble to gather dust and grime So fingers crossed I win tickets this time"
