Paul Weller (ex-The Jam, Style Council) played three shows in Auckland in October 2010. It was the first time he's played here, but there was already a New Zealand connection. Ex-pat kiwi Chris Parry (ex drummer of The Fourmyula) was the man who signed The Jam to Polydor Records in 1977 - and produced some of their early singles. Sam Wicks had an audience with Weller, and discussed the local links.
