Neil Finn busking at Coatsville Market NZ

Neil Finn Busks At An Auckland Market

by Paul Cashmere on February 10, 2024

Neil Finn did a round of busking at an Auckland market last week. Well, sort of. Neil surprised shoppers at Coatsville Market in Auckland last Sunday when he knocked out the three songs ‘Distant Sun’, ‘Don’t Dream Its Over’ and ‘I Got You’.

Organisers of the market had approached Neil to perform but say they never expected him to say yes.

Crowded Housed release a new song this week titled ‘Oh Hi’ and a new Crowded House album will be released in May.

Toto Returns To Melbourne #Review

Toto’s 2025 setlist focuses on the heritage of the band. The setlist was interesting. Compared to how it was curated for Australia in 2019 this time Toto kept to the albums of the 1900s. Mind you, there were no complaints from the audience for doing that. The biggest hits came from those early years.
