Bonnie Raitt? That must have been a low profile visit.

I've never seen her live.

Nice!

as for Christchurch you could have got a bargain at Ed's and seen a real Steinberger too.
sounds like the new Tourist hook for the CCC

Bonnie played a concert in Auckland the night after ChCh, the Auckland gig was the last for her after months on the road...The Christchurch concert was the only one I have ever attended where it started on time and that was 7.30pm... so that they could pack up the gear and head off north straight after the concert...They were packing up around her during the encore`..still all in all a good concert, she sure can work a crowd and being in such a small venue as the ChCh townhall (best acoustics in NZ )she got the best out of a typical laid back ChCh audience.
