Hi ,saw this website an This R 2 tone website as I was looking for their next gig. Have seen the band twice once at the lemontree in Aberdeen and the other time in Edinbirgh at Princes st at New Year. They were top of the bill with a band called Hard -Fi and they were brilliant. At 12 midnight they kicked off with one step beyond and the place went mental, I am thinking about coming top Campbeltown a work on the rigs and don't get that much time off. was thinking if going to gig at Galashiels with Deacon Blue but it was the kids birthday that day. Does anyone know of any good guest houses in Campbelltown cos I might come wi the missus.

I've seem this band a number of times and their "SkaDanceCraze" club and its uptempo full blown ska and 2Tone all the way- You are in for a treat I can tell you! They are a very tight unit,delivering an authentic sound played professionally.If you don't dance to this,then you just don't dance....... 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)


Just another everyday scene at a This R 2Tone gig!

Just a quick post to say that there are still tickets left for the concert on Saturday.

Getting enquiries now from all over the place so the gig is now shaping up to be a great night.

Just been down to the hall and with help from some of the festival committee have now hung drapes at the entrance which should help the sound immensely and also incidentally help the look of the hall.

Been in quite a bit of contact with the band who are really looking forward to playing down here. The lighting technicians are their own guys and are just back from T in the Park so look out for a good show from them also.

Hope to see you there

Iain
