Here's an idea that I'm quite excited about. It's quite raw – it only occurred to me at about 5:30 this morning. But I reckon it could be a solution to something that has gone on for way too long, with no sign of it ending. There is a one-day exhibition being held inside the Christchurch Cathedral today, of miniature models of buildings that went in the earthquakes. It's happening today-only at the cathedral and will move to the Arts Centre next week. But I reckon this is what we should be doing with the cathedral permanently. Instead of ploughing more money into restoring it any further, I think it should be kept as it is and used as a public space for things like exhibitions, events, and indoor markets. Which would also free-up the rest of Cathedral Square for re-development and potentially open the door for government funding to smooth out any rough edges because it would be a truly public facility. Because when the Government said no to putting more taxpayer money into the restoration, it said so because Finance Minister Nicola Willis didn't see it as a truly public facility. But this would be, wouldn't it? Some money would be needed to do things like reinstate the rose window at the front. Tidy up the roof tiles if they need to be. The sort of stuff that would make it tidy enough and safe enough to be a permanent fixture, but not the complete restoration and everything that goes with that. The exhibition happening there today, by the way, is called “Ghosts on Every Corner”. Thirteen miniatures of places such as the old Smith's bookstore, Echo Records, Java Café, the police kiosk and the Deans Ave salesyard building. As I've said before, social licence for the cathedral restoration is disappearing fast. And that's because as time goes on, a whole generation has come through with no connection to the place. And that's going to continue. So we need to face that fact and come up with a different way of honouring the past - than just sticking to this pipedream that one day, somehow, we'll have the money needed to finish the full restoration. I'm not saying we could do this overnight, but if the city and the church committed to this idea, then we'd have way more certainty than we have now. And not just certainty about the cathedral building, we'd also have certainty about Cathedral Square. Because once all the fencing around the site goes and the place is being used as an indoor events centre or indoor market, then the rest of the area can be developed. It would also keep the cathedral story alive. Because, at the moment, the cathedral story is at a standstill. Having the shell and using it in different ways would visually preserve a piece of the Square's history without it being a handbrake on anything else happening in the area. So the sorts of things I see happening there would be exhibitions, like what's happening there today, musical performances, and an indoor market. On the money side of things, the cathedral project people went to the Government because they don't have the $85 million they reckon they need to finish it. Nicola Willis told them they were dreaming because “public use would be limited due to the cathedral being a private, religious space." And not long after that, I asked her if Canterbury Museum —which is also short of money for its redevelopment— would have a better chance of getting money from the Government. She said it would, because it's a public facility. Which is what the cathedral would be if —instead of a church— it was effectively a central city events centre bringing locals and visitors together in a building that honours the past but isn't stuck in the past. I think it's a no-brainer. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Alan Buckley in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyCcKAa35PE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ayh-vWqDzBU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2ioIhmzGEI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVfK1tbeGwk&list=PLcDwkXhr5uEwekhN-p-OKHqcY_cLxvWjR Mid 80s proto-janglers Here Comes Everybody inspired Andy Bell (Ride/Oasis) to buy his first guitar, then, mission accomplished, broke up in 1986. Singer/ guitarist Richard and drummer Pete were introduced to bassist Alan by some HCE fans at St Paul's Arts Centre later that year, and The Anyways' core trio was born. Their goal was to wear black and sound like The Velvet Underground, but luckily they got it slightly wrong and ended up sounding like themselves (while still wearing black). Jennie used to read the newspaper onstage and on one occasion shorted out the keyboard by pouring fizzy pop into it. Trudy, a volunteer mental health worker, brought a big following from the Mill Drop-In Centre, to liven up the usual anoraked indie audience. Sounds reviewed the band's second gig, The Television Personalities offered support slots at the 100 Club in Oxford St, and Notown Records put out the first single, Confession, in 1987. Overcome by the excitement of being played on John Peel (once), Jennie left, and Ali took her place. The Anyways became regular performers at the Camden Falcon, where Bobby Gillespie told them they needed more guitar solos. Two tracks (no solos) were featured on The Jericho Collection in 1988 alongside Notown label-mates Shake Appeal (lots of solos). A video of rousing revolutionary anthem Levitate the Pentagon was shown on satellite TV at 2.00am. The Anyways played in Oxford, London, and Bristol with Talulah Gosh, Razorcuts, The Mission and Ride... and on their own at a Hindu wedding in Hendon (kicking off the evening with that cheery toe-tapper, Love Gone Bad). Band mantra Welcome to Psychedelic Country became even more appropriate when Hamish and Karen joined in 1990. An album (Love Lies) was recorded by Rich Haines at Dungeon Studios, but sadly not released. A swirling cover of George Harrison's If I needed someone graced a charity album called Revolution No. 9. Despite their sterling work on the swirling, Hamish and Karen decided to go more Country than Psychedelic, and left to form Lucky and The Losers in 1991. The final incarnation of The Anyways was completed by guitar maestro Mark, who had previously acted as friend and multi-tasking facilitator to the band for some time - in celebration, chilled Frascati was served to the new line-up onstage at the Zodiac in front of hundreds of delighted Heavenly fans. The Sunshine Down EP came out on Marineville Records in 1993, by which time Richard had received stage-fright counselling from Jonathan Richman and the band had supported Bad Manners at a college ball. Wider (not inspired by Buster Bloodvessel) was featured on the Days Spent Dreaming compilation. By now people wanted to spread their musical wings, so The Anyways' Grand Finale gig was held in 1994 at the Jericho Tavern (the band's spiritual home for many years).

“It was something that was broken, and I had to fix it.” In 1987 Peter Murray, then curator at Crawford Art Gallery in Cork city, embarked on an extraordinary journey: his goal was to purchase and restore the then-derelict former Royal Cork Yacht Club building in Cobh and to transform it into a cultural venue. Over time, this vision crystalised: SIRIUS Arts Centre was to become an artist's residency of international appeal, forging transatlantic connections. Peter Murray's voyage was by no means a solo one. In this in-depth conversation, he pays tribute to the many others whose hard work, time and generosity went into rescuing the RCYC building and making it into the arts centre it is today.  Changing tides is supported by Cork County Council and the Heritage Council under Cork County Council's Heritage Plan Funding 2024.

Christchurch's Business Association is calling out the food truck plans of the city's Arts Centre. The centre's applied for licences for 33 trucks to operate 12 hours a day, seven days a week. But the Christchurch Business Association believes this is unfair, with chair Annabel Turley saying city businesses are subsidising the Arts Centre. She told Heather du Plessis-Allan that the centre is getting $5.5 million over the next decade, and the rate differential for commercial compared to residential is a lot higher. Turley says food trucks would also cheapen the site. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
