"Not that commercial. I think it used to drive the record companies crazy, and I think that's why I never really fit in, in the music industry."

Intriguing! Because as a teenager I perceived McGlashan's band The Muttonbirds as quintessentially commercial pop music. Right up there with Crowded House, some of whom also came from an avantgarde background (Split Enz), and who also had some quirky songs (Chocolate Cake).

Political snowflake upset by Maori symbols
At yesterday's music awards, Stan Walker brought performers on stage holding te Tiriti flags and banners. In the audience, ignorant National Minister and full-time racist Chris Bishop shouted "Performative acclaim. What a load of crap" and started ranting.
Music legend Don McGlashan then confronted Bishop and said 'ah shut up you dickhead'.
That's worth printing on a t-shirt.
