          James Blunt – You‘re Beautiful


 

blunt

 

James Blunt last toured New Zealand in support of his album
"Back To Bedlam" in 2006, which featured the huge worldwide hits "You're Beautiful"
and Goodbye My Lover". That album went quickly to #1 in many countries
and spent months on the NZ album charts. His Australasian fans turned out to be some of his biggest supporters

He is touring New Zealand again and is hitting the big stages this time, performing in

Wellington on 29 April at the TSB Arena and in Auckland on 30 April at Vector Arena.
James' newest album, which was released last year, is titled "All The Lost Souls"
 and features equally compelling and emotional to love and relationships.

Welcome to ROCKONZ a festival celebrating Christchurch's rich
                    history of 50 Years of Rock and Roll !

ROCKONZ ROCK AND ROLL FESTIVAL

Christchurch, 24/25 March 2007

 Celebrating 50 years of Rock and Roll music and
 dance in Christchurch, emerging from the founding of the Christchurch Teenage Club in 1957

         Contact: Cecile Murphy Event Director

                        Tele: day/night 03 383 3992   Mobile: 027 416 2674

Rock and Roll Stars of the 60’s converge on Christchurch

 Christchurch is gearing up to celebrate 50 years of achievement by
 the local teenagers who got their initiation to Rock and Roll music through the Christchurch Teenage club.

 In the 1950’s there were very few places teenagers could gather to listen
and dance to rock and roll music. The local Press of the times, highlighted
teenage boredom, (with nowhere for them to meet other than
 with church groups), as a factor in perceived teenage rebellion.
This meant teenagers gathered in Cathedral Square which culminated
in a confrontation between Police, (plus the army Territorials) and teenagers in Cathedral Square in 1957. 

 Ileen and Jim Merritt, the parents of Max Merritt, the  local teenage
“King” of Rock and Roll, got together with Trevor King, a Kerridge Theatre
 Manager, to set up the Sunday afternoon Christchurch Teenage club.
  Max Merritt and the Meteors played there regularly and built up a huge following with the local teenagers.

 From the love of music fostered through the club, many of the
teenagers started their own bands and set out on their 50 year careers
playing and singing, starting with the powerful music of the times.  Many of
 these reached national and international acclaim with Ray Columbus and
the Invaders being the first New Zealand performers to make a
 “Number One Hit” in both Australia and New Zealand at the same time.
 Max Merritt and the Meteors gained a huge following in Australia as did Peter Williams of The Groove.

 These performers are now converging in Christchurch to celebrate their
 lives and their achievement with the local community and their peers at the Rockonz Festival. 

 Among those performing in Christchurch, some coming from the
 United States and Australia with their families, (many at their own expense) are:

Max Merritt and the Meteors, Ray Columbus and the Invaders, Dinah Lee,
Tony Williams, Peter Williams, Cecile and Dion Murphy, Paul Muggleston
of the Secrets, Peter Nelson and the Castaways, The Vigilantes, Dave La Planche, 
John Campbell of the Detours and John Parker of the Downbeats.
These will perform at the Saturday night concert/dance party under the eye
of Jon McCrea the Master of Ceremonies (previously known as Jonathon J).

Peter Williams, Pat Kearns, Phil Garland of the Playboys,
Norm Bland of Rhythm and Bland will perform at the Sunday night Rockonz
 Hall of Fame concert where some of the artists will receive awards
 and  be inducted into the Rockonz Hall of Fame website which will go live at the ceremony.

 Those being inducted will give a short bird’s eye view of their career
and perform their favorite number. Trevor King QSM, will meet up with
 friends he helped start on their world wide careers. All will take part in
a Classic Car Parade on the Free Fun day in Victoria Square Saturday 24th March,
at the beginning of the Festival. They will be welcomed to the City by the
 Mayor Garry Moore, on their arrival to the Victoria Square Amphitheatre at midday.

 Cecile Murphy, who with her husband Dion Murphy, conceived the idea
and are working to make it happen says: “In a rush of blood
to the head, I had this vision of celebrating the lives of the local teenagers
 who were our peers of the time. As Dion and I have been performing
music since 1958, it was what made us who we are. The musicians
we know, all gave countless hours of their lives bringing entertainment
 to the lives of the local community. The Festival is a celebration of all those
 good times which were unique in that they heralded the start of the
Rock and Roll era which still continues today”.

  Email: your details to
                                                                      sharon@sharonlingham.com

Variety is what has made the Women's Lifestyle Expo the major attraction it has become.
Where else can you find information about midwifery services, health, education and parenting alongside
 stands selling specialty chocolates, art, lingerie and jewellery ? And that's just scratching the surface
of the exhibitors typically taking part in this expo. Health and wealth issues, fashion, beauty, the home,
education, and leisure - it will all be there.

The Women's Lifestyle Expo aims to stimulate the imagination of women of all ages, and with over
160 exhibitors, everyone attending is assured of a great time.

There are a selection of amazing prizes to be won at the 2006 shows with major
sponsor Air New Zealand providing a travel prize for one lucky visitor to each show.

If you feel like a touch of shopping, a relaxing massage, a new haircut or want to find out
about all the latest in products and businesses then the show will meet all your needs. Make it a
 girls day out or take some time out for yourself. Each Expo has a cafe so you can have a
coffee and watch the world go by.

This expo promises to provide practical, fascinating and ingenious products
 and services, the expo is something you cannot afford to miss. But, it is in no way an event
exclusively for women - Many of the exhibitors are men and those going along to the expo are
 encouraged to bring along their partners as well.

This expo has really struck a chord through its personal approach and ability to
 feature items not normally seen at other exhibitions.

This is a must see event for women of all ages and if you want to showcase your
company to thousands of women then exhibiting at the Women's Lifestyle Expo is perfect for you.

And yes, men are most welcome!!!
