ONE NEWS CAPTIONS BY FAITH HAMBLYN AND VIRGINIA PHILP. CAPTIONS WERE MADE POSSIBLE WITH FUNDING FROM NZ ON AIR. COPYRIGHT TVNZ ACCESS SERVICES 2013 DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF SEVEN SHARP, WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. TONIGHT ` WHY SOME OF OUR BIG MUSICAL GUNS ARE ABOUT TO JOIN THE LIKES OF KINGS OF LEON, STEVIE WONDER, ALL IN THE NAME OF PROTEST. IT'S DEFINITELY NOT SEX, DRUGS AND ROCK AND ROLL. THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS CONCERT AND THE ALBUM IS ACTUALLY TO WRITE SONGS FROM THE HEART. WE'LL TELL YOU ABOUT THE CAUSE AND THE ALBUM. MEET A TALENTED DESIGNER HELPING PASIFIKA BOYS TAP INTO THEIR CREATIVE SIDE WITHOUT JUDGEMENT STUFF. IT'S A CREATIVE EXPRESSION, AND WE'RE ALL JUST HAVING FUN, BASICALLY. AND WE'VE ALSO GOT A GUEST IN THE STUDIO TO TELL US EVERYTHING WE EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT FA'AFAFINES. A RARE GLIMPSE OF AN ICONIC KIWI TREASURE. PAST SECURITY, PAST HEALTH AND SAFETY. HE'S GOT SOMETHING HE WANTS YOU TO SEE. BRACE YOURSELF. All be revealed later. IT'S FRIDAY, AND YOU'RE STARTING YOUR WEEKEND AT SEVEN SHARP. TALKING ABOUT PROTEST SONGS ` DYLAN, LENNON, PUBLIC ENEMY. TIM FINN, UPPER HUTT POSSE HAVE DONE THEIR BIT FOR US. BIT QUIET OF LATE, BUT SOME LOCALS ARE LENDING THEIR VOICES. BIGGEST NAMES IN THE BUSINESS PART OF GLOBAL CITIZEN. TIM WILSON SPOKE TO A MAN WHO KNOWS A BIT ABOUT KICKING UP A FUSS. (SINGS) HERE'S TIKI TANE, STRIPPED DOWN. # LIKE A FALLING ANGEL. HERE'S TIKI TANE, STRIPPED DOWN. # LIKE A FALLING ANGEL. # WHO'S GONNA CATCH HIM NOW? I MET THIS YOUNG BOY WHO WAS 12 YEARS OLD. HE'S A THIRD GENERATION GANG MEMBER, YOU KNOW, SO HIS DAD WAS IN A GANG, HIS GRANDDAD'S IN A GANG. THIS KID'S 12 YEARS OLD, AND THAT'S ALL HE KNOWS." CHOIR SINGS THAT SONG, FALLING ANGEL, AND THOSE CONCERNS NOW BEEFED UP WITH A GOSPEL CHOIR. CHOIR SINGS # LIKE FALLING ANGELS. # WHO'S GONNA CATCH THEM NOW? THE SONGWRITER WAS CLEARLY CHUFFED,... WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE KITCHEN? I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S COOKING, FOOLS. ...BUT CHUFFED SERIOUSLY AS WELL. CHOIR SINGS WE'RE ALL FALLING ANGELS AT SOME POINT, AND I GUESS IT'S JUST TRYING TO GO` WELL, TRYING NOT TO JUDGE TOO MUCH, I GUESS, AND ACTUALLY GO, 'WELL, HOW CAN WE HELP THE SITUATION?' INSTEAD OF GOING, 'OH! PUT IT OVER THERE.' MAN: LAST YEAR, 60,000 GLOBAL CITIZENS SHOWED UP. TANE AND OTHER KIWI MUSOS JOINING RANKS WITH THE LIKES OF STEVIE WONDER, ALICIA KEYS AND KINGS OF LEON FOR THE LOCAL VERSION OF A CHARITY CALLED GLOBAL CITIZEN. ROCK WITH US TO BE PART OF THE MOVEMENT TO END EXTREME POVERTY. HERE IT'S A CONCERT. AND AN ALBUM. # AND THE WORLD'S TOO PAINFUL. IT'S DEFINITELY NOT SEX, DRUGS AND ROCK AND ROLL. THIS IS A SONG ABOUT THE <BLEEP> I'VE SEEN AROUND THE WORLD, ESPECIALLY HERE IN AOTEAROA. THIS IS IT. BANG! A PROTEST SONG PENNED BY A MUSICAL AND ACTUAL OUTLAW. REPORTER: TIKI WAS HANDCUFFED AND TAKEN BACK TO THE STATION, WHERE HE SPENT FIVE HOURS IN THE POLICE CELLS BEFORE BEING CHARGED WITH DISORDERLY BEHAVIOUR LIKELY TO CAUSE VIOLENCE. I'VE WRITTEN PROTEST SONGS. I WROTE ONE CALLED 'FREEDOM TO SING', FOR WHEN I WAS ARRESTED FOR SINGING '<BLEEP> THE POLICE', HANDCUFFED AND THROWN IN JAIL, SO THAT WAS MY WAY OF, 'OH, HANG ON A MINUTE. THAT'S NOT RIGHT.' CAN A SONG ACTUALLY CHANGE THE WORLD? THIS IS WHAT WE'RE ASKING. CAN A SONG MAKE A DIFFERENCE? GOOD QUESTION. < CAN A SONG SAVE THE WORLD? NO. YEAH, DEFINITELY. LOOK AT 'WE ARE THE WORLD'. # WE ARE THE WORLD. WE ARE THE CHILDREN. # WE ARE THE ONES... # HELL NO. HELL NO? NO. YOU OLD BLOODY CYNIC! IMPOSSIBLE! IMPOSSIBLE? (LAUGHS) WHY? WELL,IT WOULDN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. IN FACT,GLOBAL CITIZEN IS AS SENSIBLE AND OUTCOME-FOCUSED AS SOME CORPORATE CITIZENS. YOU BUY THE SONG. PAYING FOR IT BY BUGGING A POLITICIAN OR DOING SOME CHARITY WORK, OR ` UNUSUALLY ` PAYING MONEY. YOU CAN'T CHANGE ANYTHING UNTIL PEOPLE ACTUALLY CARE FOR TIKI TANE, WHO TOOK THIS... # LIKE A FALLING ANGEL. # ...TO THIS... 'FALLING ANGEL' PLAYS THE SONG IS KING, NOT THE SENTIMENTS. IF YOU GO IN THERE THINKING, 'I'M GONNA MAKE A HIT SONG ABOUT POVERTY! YEAH! 'IT'S GONNA BE AMAZING AND EVERYONE'S GONNA` 'IT'S GONNA SAVE THE WORLD!' WHICH IS GREAT, BUT YOU'RE PROBABLY MORE LIKELY GONNA FAIL. I WANNA WRITE A GOOD SONG, AT THE END OF THE DAY. CHOIR SINGS IN MAORI GLOBAL CITIZEN CONCERT THIS SUNDAY AT AUCKLAND'S TOWN HALL. TIKI, ANIKA MOA, SETH HAPU, A HORI BUZZ AND OTHERS. DETAILS ON THE CONCERT AND THE CHARITY ON OUR WEBSITE. Favourite protest song? Zombie by the cardigans. I think I found the worst protest song. Michael Jackson's Earth Song. This is Michael's song. He said he'll do it four times.� Michael Jackson, ladies and gentlemne. STAY WITH US. PLENTY TO COME AFTER THE BREAK. IF THERE ISN'T AN OUTLET FOR THEM TO JUST EXPRESS THEMSELVES, THEY WILL BE FRUSTRATED INDIVIDUALS. ...SHOWING YOUNG PASIFIKA MEN THEY DON'T HAVE TO FIT A STEREOTYPE. AND NOT EXACTLY FASHION, BUT DEFINITELY CLOTHING. WE'RE SEARCHING FOR THE RAREST FORM OF A CLASSIC KIWI GARMENT. Welcome back. Jesse pointed out that it is the cranberries that sang zombies, not the cardigans. THERE'S A SENSE THAT FASHION OR ART OR ANY KIND OF CREATIVE STUFF IS NOT A VERY MANLY THING TO DO. THIS IS SOMETIMES ESPECIALLY PROBLEMATIC FOR BOYS FROM PASIFIKA CULTURES. BUT BRODIE KANE'S FOUND A PROGRAMME IN WELLINGTON THAT'S GIVING CONFIDENCE TO PASIFIKA KIDS ` YOUNG MEN, ACTUALLY ` WHO DON'T WANT WHAT SOCIETY THINKS THEY SHOULD WANT. DAFT PUNK'S 'HARDER, BETTER, FASTER, STRONGER' THIS IS AMAZING! SEE, THAT'S HOW EASY IT IS. I ACTUALLY WANNA WEAR THAT, BUT I CAN'T FIT IT. SKY-HIGH HEELS, AIR KISSES, SUNGLASSES INDOORS ` THE KINDS OF THINGS THAT COME TO MIND WHEN ONE THINKS ABOUT FASHION. BUT THERE'S A FABULOUS FA'AFAFINE KEEN TO CHANGE THE GAME. I'M GONNA FILL THEM ALL UP WITH THIS. LOOKS GOOD. REMEMBER, DON'T GET TOO FANCY ON THE EDGES BECAUSE YOU'LL BE DEPRESSED WHEN I FOLD THE EDGES IN. LINDAH LEPOU IS A SAMOAN FA'AFAFINE AND ACCOMPLISHED DESIGNER. THE WESTFIELD STYLE PASIFIKA GOES TO... LINDAH LEPOU. IS MY HAIR ALL RIGHT? YEP. YOUR HAIR IS AMAZING. SHE'S FACED BARRIERS IN THE INDUSTRY AND IN LIFE AND WANTS TO SMASH THE STEREOTYPE THAT THE FASHION INDUSTRY IS, AS YOUNG PEOPLE CALL IT, 'GAY'. OH AT MY SCHOOL, IT'S AN ALL-BOYS SCHOOL, AND THEY... DON'T REALLY PROMOTE FASHION DESIGN? WHAT'S COOL IS THAT THIS ISN'T A GAY, GIRL THING; IT'S A CREATIVE EXPRESSION, AND WE'RE ALL JUST HAVING FUN, BASICALLY. THE BOYS SAY THEY WERE EXPECTED TO BE ON THE SPORTS PADDOCK, BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT THEY WANT. AND PLAY RUGBY LEAGUE, BUT NOT REALLY INTO LEAGUE NAH. NEVER PLAYED IT BEFORE. HAVEN'T YOU? I JUST LOVE DRAWING, AND CREATING STUFF LIKE THIS IS ONE OF MY PASSIONS SO... TAPPING INTO THEIR TALENT IS WHAT LINDAH SAYS MATTERS THE MOST. IF THERE ISN'T AN OUTLET FOR THEM TO JUST EXPRESS THEMSELVES` ACTUALLY, EXPRESS WHO THEY ARE, NOT WHAT THEIR PARENTS ARE OR WHAT ANYONE ELSE IS ` THEIR PARTNERS OR SCHOOL IS ` THEY WILL BE FRUSTRATED INDIVIDUALS. YOU CAN SEE THAT GLIMMER IN THEIR EYES WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE TASK AT HAND. TODAY IT'S CREATING DRESSES FOR THE RUNWAY OUT OF PAPER AND PLASTIC... WITH LESS THAN TWO DAYS TO DO IT. ARE YOU THEIR INSPIRATION? IT'S A TWO-WAY STREET. IT'S INSPIRING FOR ME TO SEE THEM REALISE AND REMEMBER HOW BRILLIANT THEY ACTUALLY ARE. TIME TO SEE WHAT INSPIRATION I CAN DRAW FROM THE FABULOUS LINDAH. DO IT, GIRL. SHOW US WHAT YOU'VE GOT. NO, THIS IS REALLY EMBARRASSING. DO YOU SEE WHAT I'M SAYING? IT'S AN INTENSE WORKSHOP. I WAS DRAWING VERY SIMILAR WHEN I WAS 4. BUT METAPHORICALLY, WHAT IS THAT SAYING? THAT I CAN'T DRAW. YOU'RE STILL THAT 4-YEAR-OLD. NO! HEY, IT'S CLEARLY NOT FOR EVERYONE, BUT FOR THESE SOFTLY SPOKEN LADS, THIS IS WHERE THEIR PASSION LIES, AND THIS IS WHERE THEY WANT TO STAY. YEAH I REALLY WANT TO GET INTO THIS, EH. UM, IT WAS EITHER THIS OR GO AND DO SPORTS. AND HAS LINDA HELPED? YES. A LOT. SO MAYBE WHEN YOU FINISH SCHOOL, YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE A DRESS FOR ME OR SOMETHING? OH, A DRESS? OR... WHAT DO WE CALL THEM AGAIN? SKEES? STEEZ. OH STEEZ! WOULD YOU MAKE ME SOME STEEZ? SOME MAD STEEZ? YUP. YUP. SWEET. Probably not. FRESH HORIZONS WORKSHOPS ARE RUN IN SEVERAL MAJOR CENTRES. PASIFIKA ARTISTS ACT AS TUTORS. STUDENTS SEE SUCCESSFUL ROLE MODELS THEY CAN RELATE TO. NOW, BRODIE TOLD US LINDAH IS FA'AFAFINE. NOT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT THAT IS, SO WE'VE GOT ONE IN STUDIO ` FELICIA. Is it ironic that fa'afafine is part of Pasifika communities and is not acceptable for the boys to pursue fashion design? Yes. We are trying to break down stereotypes. That is unfortunate for the development of young individuals. What is a fa'afafine? It is an individual from Samoa which identifies as a gay male or a transgender individual. But the wood fa'afafine is a Samoan word word which translates into 'like a lady.' In parts, for some individuals, it has been reality for some people to question their sexuality and identity. In terms of the whole testosterone thing coming along, my mum made me a fa'afafine because there were too many boys in the family and she needd someone to assume the feminine role. Did you ever wonder what life would be like if you were't raise as a fa'afafine? I was born this way. I made a distinction. No one forced me to be a fa'afafine. IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT, AND WHAT BETTER TIME TO RECAP ALL THE BIG STORIES OF THE LAST SEVEN DAYS? HERE'S JESSE WITH HIS WEEKLY NEWS WRAP. WELL, THE BIG DAY OUT LINE-UP WAS ANNOUNCED YESTERDAY AS WELL AS THOSE BIG ACTS ` PEARL JAM AND BLUR. THERE'S SOME GREAT INDIE BANDS COMING. HEARD OF GOLDEN EGG, PLUM TAPIOCA, MISO MASH? ACTUALLY, THOSE AREA ALL MENU ITEMS AT PETER GORDON'S NEW RESTAURANT. I'M JUST MAKING SURE YOU'RE PAYING ATTENTION. AND JOHN KEY REVEALED THAT THERE WERE AL QAEDA OPERATIVES IN NZ. NOW, WEIRDLY, HE CHOSE TO REVEAL IT ON THE 'SI AND GARY' MORE-FM BREAKFAST SHOW, MAKING IT THE WORST PLACE FOR A MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT SINCE WINSTON PETERS REVEALED HIS NEW IMMIGRATION POLICY IN THE BACK OF AN INVERCARGILL TAXI. PARLIAMENTARY JOURNALISTS WERE OUTRAGED AT REVELATIONS THAT THEIR PHONE RECORDS COULD BE OPENED TO SCRUTINY. YOU SEE, JOURNOS TREAT THEIR STORIES LIKE MCDONALD'S TREAT THEIR BIG MACS ` THEY DON'T LIKE TO REVEAL THE SOURCE. HMM. THAT'S THE PROBLEM WHEN YOU BECOME A DAD. YOU JUST START TELLING DAD JOKES. NOW, IN SHOWBIZ NEWS, SIMON COWELL'S GOT HIS YOUNG MATE'S WIFE PREGNANT, MAKING IT THE SECOND-MOST REVOLTING COUPLE WE WERE FORCED TO THINK ABOUT THIS WEEK. AND FINALLY, A ROUGH COUPLE OF DAYS FOR AARON GILMORE. OH, JUST WHEN WE WERE FORGETTING ABOUT HIM, NOW WHEN HE ASKS, 'DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?' YOU CAN REPLY, 'YEAH. YOU'RE THE GUY A SPANISH NEWSPAPER USED 'TO ILLUSTRATE A STORY ON BEING UGLY.' THAT CV JUST GETS BETTER AND BETTER, AARON. Poor old Aaron. The John key thing on more FM was a bit of marketing PR gold. No one expected it. I don't know whether I should be feeling good about my morning now. STAY WITH US. JUST AFTER THE BREAK ` IT WAS WON IN A GAME OF POOL AT THE WHANGAMOMONA PUB. THE MORE HOLES IT GOT IN IT, THE WARMER IT BECAME. EVERY SWANNDRI HAS A STORY. HAYDN JONES HEARS OVER 30 OF THEM AT A MUSEUM DEDICATED TO THE KIWI BUSH SHIRT. Welcome back. This is a good story. WHAT HAVE THESE PHOTOS GOT IN COMMON? THEY'RE ALL WEARING SWANNDRI. THE BUSH SHIRT IS NOW 100. Swanndri's the only clothing piece in New Zealand hasn't changed style. WE NEED YOUR HELP LOOKING FOR A LOST STYLE OF SWANNDRI. WE'LL TALK ABOUT THAT SOON, BUT FIRST, HADYN JONES IN TARANAKI LOOKING AT A CENTURY OF SWANNDRI. TALK NICELY TO ANDREEW MOFFAT AT PUKE ARIKI, NEW PLYMOUTH'S MUSEUM, AND HE MIGHT JUST TAKE YOU BACKSTAGE, PAST SECURITY, PAST 'HEALTH AND SAFETY'. HE'S GOT SOMETHING HE WANTS YOU TO SEE. BRACE YOURSELF. QUITE POSSIBLY THE OLDEST KNOWN SWANNDRI IN THE UNIVERSE. THAT'S RIGHT. THE UNIVERSE'S OLDEST SWANNIE, WORN BY OHAKUNE'S TOM WHITE 70 YEARS AGO. ANDREW LOVES THIS JERSEY, LOVES IT'S IMPERFECTIONS. SOME OF THE STITCHING ON HERE... I MEAN IT'S ALL VERY TIDY, BUT IT'S UNMISTAKABLY NOT WHAT YOU WOULD GET IN A FACTORY. BUT WHAT'S A SWANNDRI DOING IN A MUSEUM? IT'S A REAL TARANAKI INVENTION. THAT'S WHY WE'VE GOT NOT JUST ONE SWANNDRI BUT OVER 30 IN OUR COLLECTION. SO TAKE A LOOK AT HISTORY. SO, THIS ONE FOR SURE HAS SEEN A BIT OF LIFE. THE '70S SWANNIE. IT WAS WON IN A GAME OF POOL AT THE WHANGAMOMONA PUB. THE MORE HOLES IT GOT IN IT, THE WARMER IT BECAME. A SWANNIE IN ITS PUREST SENSE, IN WAY. THE AFTER FIVE SWANNDRI. AND THE WOMEN'S SWANNDRI,... I THINK OF IT A LITTLE BIT LIKE THE ALBINO SWANNDRI. ...THAT WAS ONCE WORN BY A MAN. HIS WIFE SELECTED IT FOR HIM. TAILOR WILLIAM BROOME STARTED MAKING HIS SWANNDRIS 100 YEARS AGO FROM THIS SHOP. IT'S NOW A STAXS. BROOME, APPARENTLY, WAS A BIT OF MARKETING PIONEED. HE HAD A TANK OUTSIDE OF HIS SHOP WHERE HE WOULD SUBMERGE SWANNIES IN IT TO GET PEOPLE'S ATTENTION AND GET THEM TALKING ABOUT WATERPROOF AND STUFF. HELLO, JOCELYN. HOW ARE YOU? JOCELYN NEUMANN IS WILLIAM BROOME'S GRANDDAUGHTER. SHE WAS ON THE PAYROLL. EVERY DOZEN WE LACED UP, WE GOT A PENNY. SHE WILL NEVER FORGET BROOME'S SPECIAL WATERPROOFING FORUMULA. IT WAS A HORRIBLE SMELL. I CAN STILL VAGUELY SMELL IT. HONESTLY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS. IT WAS A HIGHLY KEPT SECRET. EVEN MY BROTHER DIDN'T KNOW, AND HE TRIED TO FIND OUT. AT SWANNDRI'S HQ IN CHRISTCHURCH, CEO MARK NEVIN HAS SOME PRECIOUS IMAGES OF SWANNDRI OVER THE YEARS. A LOT OF THE SHOTS IN HERE ARE PHOTOGRAPHED WITH PEOPLE IN IT WHO I THINK WERE REALLY SCARED OF SMILING BACK IN THOSE DAYS. BUT EVEN MARK DOESN'T KNOW WHAT'S IN WILLIAM BROOME'S SECRET WATERPROOFING FORUMULA. I DON'T THINK PEOPLE HAVE KNOWN IT FOR ABOUT PROBABLY 50 YEARS. SWANNDRI DON'T USE THE FORMULA ANY MORE. THAT SECRET HAS GONE WITH WILLIAM BROOME TO HIS GRAVE. THE GROWTH OF THE SWANNDRI TELLS THE TALE OF THE DEATH OF NZ PRODUCTION. FOR THE MAJORITY OF IT'S 100 YEARS, THE SWANNDRI WAS MADE HERE IN WAITARA, ABOUT 20 MINUTES' DRIVE FROM NEW PLYMOUTH. SO YOU'VE PROBABLY GUESSED BY NOW THAT THE SWANNDRI IS NO LONGER MADE HERE IN WAITARA. THE FACTORY SHUT IN THE EARLY 1990'S ALONG WITH THE SUBARU FACTORY AND THE MEATWORKS. WE JUST DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE STUFF IN NZ ANY MORE. AND THIS IS PROBABLY NO SURPRISE EITHER THAT THE SWANNDRI, SINCE 2005, HAS BEEN MADE IN CHINA ALONG WITH EVERYTHING ELSE IN THIS COUNTRY ` MADE IN CHINA. BACK AT THE MUSEUM, ANDREW MOFFAT YEARNS ONE THING. JUNE '68 AT THE NEW PLYMOUTH WINTER SHOW. THE SWANNDRI SKIRT. LAST SEEN IN THE '60S. WOW. THAT IS INSANELY INTERESTING TO ME, BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER EVER HEARD OF ANYONE TALK ABOUT THE SWANNDRI SKIRT. SO IF ANYONE HAS A PROOFED FASHION SKIRT BY SWANNDRI, I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO TALK TO THEM, FOR SURE. A MORNING WITH ANDREW MOFFAT TEACHES YOU NOT ALL MUSEUM COLLECTIONS ARE HIGH ART. THIS FUNNY BUSH SHIRT WITH SHORT SLEEVES IS, IN TARANAKI AT LEAST, CONSIDERED CULTURAL, AND IT'S BEEN THAT WAY 100 YEARS. Happy birthday Swanndri. It's called a Swanndri because water flows off it like Swans back. If you have an old Swanndri, the museum would love to hear from you. If you know anything about the Swanndri skirt, please get in touch. You would suit a Swanndri more than I would.� WE'RE DOING THE ENTIRE SHOW LIVE FROM NZ'S SHARPEST TOWN ON MONDAY, just me and Jesse. We're going on Monday evening. A LIVE SHOW OUT OF OAMARU ` NZ'S SHARPEST TOWN ` MONDAY NIGHT. WHAT DO YOU RECKON? LOUD CHEERING Seriously though. Ideas of what we can do in Oamaru. Me and Ali are looking for a party.
