tubbys... schmubbys...
another fookin great night out last night no thanks to the music!
we went to the trinity centre in bristol (great venue BTW) for a reggae showcase featuring king tubbys sound system. when we arrived the brilliant DJ derek (see pic) was spinning some reggae classics. have seen derek before and he is a master reggae DJ. then came the jungle red band, they had a nice sound but just didn't quite have that special something to really get me going. then different guest singers took to the stage, this seemed to go on for ever (about 3 hours at a guess). none of them were anything special, the music varied from roots to ragga, lovers rock to dancehall. we were beginning to wonder whether king tubbys were ever coming on but for the final hour they did. were they worth waiting for? were they fuck, more crappy lovers rock some other not very inspiring reggae and a queen track??? what the fuck??? so music wise not the best night we've ever had!
as always though the company was superb, many laughs were had and i feel so lucky to be out with such lovely people. friends are so special...... i love you guys, you all rock! xxxxx fuck i'm getting all sentimental or is that just mental?
