Skorcher! Sydney Ska Reggae Weekender
July 26th 2006 11:44
December 1st, 2nd and 3rd 2006
Though all the details aren’t finalised, I want to announce the dates for the weekender Skorch and Dizzybeat.com are putting on at the end of the year. Due to Mods Mayday not going ahead in 2006, something was necessary to fill the void.
Causing a storm in Melbourne and having received a great reception the first time they were in Sydney, we’re pleased to say the 9 piece act The Ska Vendors will be joining us for the weekend.
Programme of Events:
Friday night, 1st December 2006
45 RPM (or equivalent). Club night with DJs spinning mod, ska, reggae, 2-tone, soul and sixties R&B. Venue TBA.
Saturday night, 2nd December 2006
Venue will be the Empire Hotel, Annandale. 5 band line-up including the Ska Vendors, Backy Skank with more (particularly on the mod side) to be announced.
Sunday afternoon, 3rd December 2006
Skabour Cruise. Join The Ska Vendors, The Signals and a third band TBA on Sydney Harbour for Jamaican sounds with the best backdrop one could ask for.
We also intend to organise a scooter run for the Saturday afternoon and if there is interest, a meet and greet for the Friday.
