Reggae - A daily blog

Those Crazy Slovakians - a reggae coincidence?

June 5th 2007 06:12
I am not sure whether this is purely coincidence, but I had the flier below posted on the 45 RPM website. Notice that the night is called Night at the Hop and it is presented by a mob called Take It or Leave It.

Now I realise neither of these names are original when we (folk from Melbourne and us in Sydney) use them, they were pinched from the Derrick Morgan tune and the Madness song and film respectively, but it seems strange that the two ska, reggae and 2-tone nights that are running in Australia at the moment would be combined to create a new night in Druzba.

Good work I say! One day I'd love to go to this night in Slovakia.

Thanks Selecta Bing. Take It or Leave It appears on the Madness album Absolutely, but I suppose it is a common enough phrase to turn up in multiple ska songs.

This event has nothing to do with Slovakia It's actually in Austria, Linz (see link above)
