Ska Festival - Next Week!

The Dublin Castle, birthplace of ska legends Madness, and as of next week, home of the Dublin Castle Ska Fest!

The month long event sees the DubCastle host The Kubricks, The Mistakes, The Stiff Joints, my beloved Big 10, Tootenskamen and Specials main man Roddy Radiation.

I'll be playing this Saturday 24th November Big 10 will take over the pub, playing two full sets of the best of Jamaican & London Ska. Doors are 8pm.

In the meantime here's a clip of Big 10 performing the Madness classic 'My Girl'



See you there :)

Big 10 out of 10.

So I had my first dep gig with Big 10 last weekend, and it was too much fun. I've seen Big 10 a few times, and knew they were a great live band, but to be part of it is an amazing feeling.

With a set including all the hits, from Lorraine to Rudy, Rat Race to Monkey Man, the band love it, the crowd love it. Even their new sound guy loves it, which as luck would have it is the best sound guy in Cambridge, Rob Williamson.

Big 10's next pub gig is at The Dublin Castle, Camden on 28th August, with support from our mutual ska pals, The Skanx (here's the link) and it also just happens to be my birthday, so come to Camden, buy me a drink, then watch me work :-)
