About this word search
Flying Nun Records was founded in Christchurch in 1981 and put out bands like The Chills and The Clean, the heart of what became known as the Dunedin sound. Sir Howard Morrison and Prince Tui Teka were great entertainers of their time, Don McGlashan fronted The Mutton Birds, and Alien Weaponry play metal sung in te reo Māori. Shihad, Tiki Taane and Anika Moa round out the list.
Eighteen by eighteen, in all eight directions. Four entries share the top spot at fourteen letters: Fat Freddy's Drop, The Mutton Birds, Howard Morrison and Pātea Māori Club, which loses its macrons as PATEAMAORICLUB. Poi E has just four letters, and Lorde, Herbs and Benee five. The Z appears only in Split Enz. Three entries begin with THE, so check the whole word before you circle it.
For a music quiz night. The quizmaster reads out a song, and the first team to find the artist in the grid gets the point.
