10 random facts about Manaena

He was born in 1958 in a small town called Winton, New Zealand. While on a plane trip at the age of 17, he randomly met the midwife that delivered him, which is one of those random trivia about musicians that makes his story unique. He was a fast runner in primary school, mainly because of his small build; on the rugby field, the bigger players scared him. On a road trip to play a gig, Peter and his mate, Paul, both suffered from diarrhea. They finally arrived at the venue, only to find there was just one toilet. Peter, being the faster sprinter, got there first! His band was invited to play for a group of bikers, and since no other bands showed up, they ended up performing for two days with only 35 songs, featuring some long guitar and drum solos. In a remarkable moment in music history, Peter sat on stage with Pope John Paul II, as he worked for the company that supported the Pope's visit to Tasmania. He also enjoyed a couple of beers while chatting at the bar with Joe Cocker. Peter won a school talent quest when he was 12 years old and has a unique dancing style that some might say resembles someone with a broken ass. In his daughters' dance concerts, he amusingly played the parts of the Beast and later Santa Claus. Interestingly, he was asked to leave the group viewing the Mona Lisa because he defied the 'no selfie stick' rule.
