ZEN DOG: Hazy Recollections From The Life Of Mick Innes

Michael John Innes was born in Christchurch in 1953 and became Mick Innes when he moved to Australia 20 years later.

With a career spanning 3 decades in film, television and theatre, plus 3 marriages, 2 kids, 2 grandsons, lock ups, drunk tanks and the odd spot of bother; Mick is now turning 60 still doing what he loves, still broke and kinda lucky to be alive.

For 6 nights upstairs at The Basement come listen to Mick recall whatever he can remember...
