An unusual DJ set coming up this Saturday (10th Sep 2011) in that it will be made up entirely of cover versions.
Not just any old covers...but specifically current indie/rock covers of mostly 80s tunes.I guess indie/rock 80s tunes that were themselves covers also count (I'm thinking TAINTED LOVE, SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO or
I WANT CANDY) although these are so entrenched I could play the originals and most people would think they were the covers...like one of
my REFORM! favourites HANGING ON THE TELEPHONE.This party is put together by the ROCKFORD folks and features the newly christened BATTLESHIP DJS (read their manifesto here:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Battleship-DJs/106736979432820?sk=info), DJ BLACK TO THE FUTURE and AMPIE OMO.
Ampie played played trombone for FUZIGISH (I think??) and also backed VIOLENT FEMMES when they played SA some years ago. He
currently plays in BOO! The party is at KITCHENERS CARVERY cnr Juta & De Beer str in Braamfontein. Doors open at 9pm with a R30 cover. Here is the FB event:
