Out of Silence - Silo Park, March 9 & 10

Welcome KAREKARES! I'm only new here too, but everyone is so sweet.

Enjoy you're trip to NZ. I won't be going to the shows( I so wish!), but trust me, you'll meet so many Frenz in the queue and at the barrier, you'll have trouble keeping everyone's names straight!

Have an amazing time! It will be an event you'll never forget.

Welcome! You'll love New Zealand. Enjoy your Finn journey of discovery, there's so much to enjoy.

I had heard that the Out of Silence shows in Auckland would be broadcast on Facebook.  Has anyone heard anything about that?

Belbee: Thank you! It's my first time seeing Neil and it'll be in New Zealand, so that just makes it extra special!

Perfectchord: Thanks! I'm going to be there for two months (because it's so far away from America, I thought if I'm going, I might as well go for a bit) and I'm really excited to go to Karekare and Piha and Te Awamutu and all those places!

Sugar Mouse: I'm not sure I know anything about that, sorry!

Oh em gee, please let this be so! I'm planning to save a little coin and fly to the GC for the HOTA OOS show, it should be amazing.

Karekares, you'll definitely meet plenty of Frenz at the show if you ask around; I've met a few just from the 3 shows I went to over the past couple of weekends. Frenz world is a Small World. 😉

I believe Radio New Zealand will be recording a concert for future use.

Sugar Mouse...I believe you are a fellow SoCal Frenz, so I thought this would interest you....https://www.laphil.com/events/performances/306/

Also, has anyone ever been to a concert at Silo Park? Is it a large venue? I'm planning to get there before noon to queue for the barrier - too early, or does that sound about right?

What a show! Here’s some videos I took for the benefit of everyone (if you pardon me being really loud in them), it’s just past midnight here so I’ll have to upload the rest in the morning but yeah, have at it: https://twitter.com/peterotooi...054039344037888?s=21

Thanks for all the posts from last night!  Would love to hear people's thoughts and reviews on last night's show.

I'm so glad you got there and had a great time! Your videos are so much fun. Enjoy NZ!

Radio New Zealand had a mixed review of the evening. Neil replied on Twitter indicating many of her criticisms were unfounded. 

It seems RNZ has taken that review down. I got a 404.

The review's still there.

Neil's Out of Silence concert with the APO is now streaming online, audio only, on RNZ.

Instant smile 

Unfortunately I live in the wrong city to see this show. Hey it’s only Melbourne

Just listened. It's unbelievable. Hoping for the video ...

It did make it to YouTube quickly but I'm not sure Neil sees Out of Silence as a commercial venture especially as the live performance of the album is already available free online.

Doesn’t mean RNZ is happy seeing their webpage ad revenue go to YouTube, though. 

It’s copyright infringement, which Neil’s management won’t be happy about either, so best that the uploader takes it down before YouTube does.

Here’s the official post of Independence Day: https://youtu.be/E0n85StFIeY

Good point. Not sure how musicians can make a living these days. Hopefully the YouTuber will take them down. I also deleted my post above with the link as we shouldn't be promoting it.
