“[University students] hated the hypocrisy of adult society, the rigidity of its political institutions, the impersonality of its bureaucracies. They sought to create a society that places human values before materialistic ones, that has a little less head and a little more heart, that is dominated by self-interest and loves its neighbor more. And they were persuaded that group protest of a militant nature would advance those goals.” HumansHeartLittlesSelfPoliticalValuesGoalInterestGroupsStudentsAdultsAnd LoveInstitutionsUniversityNeighborHatedHypocrisyProtestBureaucracySelf InterestMaterialisticMilitantRigidityHuman ValuesPolitical InstitutionsUniversity StudentsImpersonality Author:Muriel Beadle
“I believed in looking at people as individuals, not in groups. I hated groups; still do. And I saw particularly the university, the university artists really acted as a group. The others didn't so much, but the university people took advantage of that and behaved like a group, rather than as individuals. They had a lot of power that way.” PeopleWayStillsArtistIndividualSawsGroupsAdvantageUniversityHated Author:Tom Robbins

“The main reason for the break was a combination of travel and going back to university, which drew me into theatre more than music. I did stuff on acoustic guitar when I was traveling, filed it away and made notes, without it being musical notation. Just taped the odd thing, did a sketch, stuck it on a cassette. I thought at some point, I'll go back to it. Some of it I did use in '84-'85 when I started working in the Free Theatre in Christchurch. So it might seem like I had given up after the Pin Group, but I just went into a different avenue.” MadeDifferentReasonUseSeemsMightGivenStuffBreakGroupsNotesGuitarMusicalUniversityTheatreStuckCombinationOddPinsAvenuesGiven UpAcousticsOdd ThingsAcoustic GuitarCassettes Author:Roy Montgomery
