Luxon responds after Bishop's music awards comments
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has responded after comments made by senior minister Chris Bishop at the Aotearoa Music Awards last week prompted criticism. And today Bishop said he was "frustrated and annoyed by the overt politicking" around a performance, but reiterated earlier comments that he should have kept his views to himself. Video footage from the awards evening on Thursday in Auckland showed Bishop responding during a performance by Stan Walker, which featured a large Toitū Te Tiriti banner on stage. Bishop admitted afterwards that he said something about performative acclaim and said, what a lot of crap. He said his comments referred to what he called the overtly political branding on display. Christopher Luxon ADVERTISEMENT According to its website, Toitū Te Tiriti's "intent is to demonstrate the beginning of a unified Aotearoa response to the Government's assault on tangata whenua and Te Tiriti o Waitangi". Luxon responded to the comments when asked on Breakfast today, saying Bishop had since said that he "should have kept his opinions to himself". "People have lots of different ranges and different reactions to music, and what they like and don't like. I like a lot of country music and people don't, sometimes, I find," he said. "Look, he said he should have kept his thoughts to himself, I'm comfortable with that." Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has responded after comments made by Chris Bishop at the Aotearoa Music Award prompted criticism. (Source: Breakfast) Asked whether he would speak to Bishop about the issue, Luxon confirmed he already had. "I spoke to him on the weekend just to get his side of the story, but he came out before I'd even got a chance to talk to him to say he should have kept his thoughts to himself, that's pretty good." ADVERTISEMENT Luxon said musicians had "taken shots at politicians for centuries and politicians will respond for centuries," saying everybody had different musical tastes. 'It wasn't the right time or place' - Bishop Speaking to media at parliament, Bishop reiterated he "should have kept my views to myself at the time". Chris Bishop speaks to media at parliament. (Source: 1News) "But it is what it is," he added. Bishop said he would not apologise to Stan Walker. "It's not clear what I would be apologising for. My views are my views, and as I said I should have kept these to myself at the time, but we live in a democracy." ADVERTISEMENT He said he didn't have an issue with Walker as an artist, citing his frustration with the "politicisation" of the segment as the reason for his comments. "I was frustrated and annoyed by the overt politicking around it. It's not about Stan Walker, I actually quite like Stan Walker and quite liked his performance. Bishop said he was frustrated by the Toitū Te Tiriti banners that were on display during the performance, but admitted that it "wasn't the right time or place to express those views". "It's not about Stan Walker, or singing in te reo, or singing a waiata." Bishop confirmed he was holding a Heineken beer in his hand in the video, but emphatically denied having had too much to drink. Kiwi musician Don McGlashan was also seen on the video confronting Bishop about the "enormous amount of ranting". McGlashan told RNZ that at first he didn't realise who it was. "After a while I turned to him and said 'ah shut up you dickhead' and I looked at him and I thought, oh I know that face. Then he said 'what did you say to me?'". ADVERTISEMENT McGlashan said that he again told Bishop to "shut up you dickhead and he said 'I could say the same to you', and I said, well I wasn't talking and you were. And then I realised I was talking to the leader of the House". When asked about the confrontation with McGlashen, Bishop said the interaction was "ironic" given he was a huge fan of his work as a solo artist and with his band The Mutton Birds. "His political views are quite well-known, so it is what it is, he's entitled to his views the same way I'm entitled to mine," Bishop said.

Regional Wrap: the arts scene in Takapuna
Every week in RNZ Culture 101 's Regional Wrap we find out about the arts scene in a place beyond our city centres. This week it's a suburb that developed its own sense of identity before travel was made easier by a harbour bridge. It's Takapuna on the North Shore of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. Known for its beach and beachside culture, it also boasts a distinctive volcanic lake Lake Taupo. It was here in the late 1960s the North Shore Theatre and Arts Trust renovated an old brick pumping station to become the busy Pumphouse Theatre. It was joined by the larger Bruce Mason Theatre near the beach in 2015. Just up the road from the Pumphouse, the Lake House Arts Centre is celebrating its 25th anniversary in another historic house. It's billed as community of hundreds of artists and members participating in exhibitions and events, including classes and holiday programmes accessed by thousands. It was originally an Edwardian boarding house situated between the lake and beach, before being shifted and restored to Fred Thomas Drive on Barry's Point, We welcome to Culture 101 Lake House Arts Centre operations manager Grae Burton.

The Others Way Festival First Line-Up Announcement. And A Huge Plot Twist – We're Closing Down K Road
Press Release – 818. Tāmaki Makaurau's iconic street festival is back, and bigger than ever in every way imaginable! Yes, the first line-up of 29 mind-boggling acts for The Others Way has dropped, and yes, Saturday 29 November across Karangahape Road just became unmissable. Hot off the press, we're pinching ourselves at the news that headlining this year's festival is none other than Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory, touring in support of their phenomenal self-titled album. Last seen here for an astonishing show at the majestic Civic Theatre, Sharon Van Etten has fully accepted her mantle as one of the world's great rock stars, fronting her gothic-tinged new quartet to widespread awe and acclaim. While we've roped in all your usual favourite venues for the festival, we didn't think we could squeeze Shazza down the back of Little Turkish Cafe, so for the first time ever we're closing down KARANGAHAPE ROAD! Expect the whole dang block between Queen Street and Pitt Street to transform into the party of your dreams, with our main stage landing right near the Rainbow crossing. As if that wasn't enough to get you scrambling for tickets, the rest of the lineup is scorching hotter than a Holden bonnet in late summer. Behold, Aotearoa's fabled masters of big noise High Dependency Unit, back to saturate your ears for their first live shows since 2017; Canadian 'sonic nonconformist' Saya Gray is headed our way for her debut NZ show; The Phoenix Foundation performing their recently reissued cult classic Pegasus in full; and Zambia's 'Zamrock' legends W.I.T.C.H. are intending to cause havoc, Others Way style. But wait, there's more! Joining this extraordinary entourage is public transport mensch and songwriter supremo Anthonie Tonnon; the unmistakable dub sounds of Christoph El Truento; scorching rock'n'roll two piece Elliot & Vincent; rapper and international ballroom icon Jamaica Moana; US indie folk favourite Shannon Lay; the return from our dear friends The Bats on the eve of their new album; and a very special duo performance from Tiny Ruins. You want more? We got more! Dreamy folk crooner Arahi; bass boss Babetech; captivating club legend BBYFACEKILLA; Aussie rockers C.O.F.F.I.N; psych rock newcomers Crying Ivy; te reo Māori injected electronica from Geneva AM; neo-soul sensation Hina; folk heroine Holly Arrowsmith; emerging pop fave Isla Noon; FILTH AKL favourite & super selector Kaiviti; the new wave of riot grrls Lipstick Cherry; the rap scientist Mazbou Q; rising hip-hop champion RNZŌ; stonking soulstress Romi Wrights; Australian soul adjacent DJ producer Sampology; reo rua (bilingual) rapper Swizl Jager; and dreamy sibling trio Womb. And that's just the first line-up. There's a whole lot more to come. We're shutting down the street, and throwing K Road the biggest party you've ever seen, with the wildest line-up in the festival's history. You don't wanna miss it.
