briguy Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 I know there's a few of you that always show your support but I think I'm wasting my time with the rest of you. I don't think there's many reggae fans from the Hamilton area on this board. We're pretty darn good and I recommend checking us out someday. RIDDIM RIDERS Pepper Jack's - 38 King William St. Hamilton 905.525.6666 www.pep perjackcafe.com Doors open 9pm $5. Riddim Riders play a mix of originals and classics from the 70s, 80s and 90s. Many Jamaican standards, some that people will recognize right away, and others that only long time reggae fans will know. Focus is on tunes with conscious, spiritual lyrics and vibes. Heavy dub breaks included.
Jay Funk Dawg Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 I would love to see you guys ... keep me posted to your Riddim Riders gigs!
\/\/illy Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 Killa! One of the best acts Hamilton has produced.[color:gray](Unfortunately I'm not much of a reggae fan.)
jay sanislo Posted November 21, 2007 Report Posted November 21, 2007 Hey Bri, does some of this band come from The inspirators(not sure if this is the right name.) They used to play mermaids in hess back in the day! I used to go see them all the time. Unfortunetly I cant make it out as much as I used to and would love to see the band soon. I love a good funky reggae party!!!
edger Posted November 21, 2007 Report Posted November 21, 2007 I love reggae! And the Riddim Riders are great! I was wondering if you were going to get some alternative gigs happening, now that 33 Hess has officially bit the bucket (again). I'll most likely be taking in the Fatties on the 24th, so unfortunately I won't be making it out to this show, but do you think you'll have more gigs over the month of December? I'd love to make it out once school obligatons lighten up (which is soon...very soon...)And yes Jay, a few of the members are from the Inspirators. Good times.
briguy Posted November 23, 2007 Author Report Posted November 23, 2007 I'll have some big news soon but this is it for about 5 weeks. I suspect you'll have another engagement next time anyway. It'll happen eventually. chrs
briguy Posted November 26, 2007 Author Report Posted November 26, 2007 Great show Sat night! Pepper Jack’s was hopping… Very few people that I recognized and I don’t think there was one person from the board other thn staff. Sorry if I missed anyone. There’s a pretty decent reggae scene developing around here and I hope a few more people pick up on it. We’ll be headlining the Casbah for NYE with h.E.A.T and Dodger. It’s going to be a huge show with each band capable of filling the room. We feel honoured to be a part of such a great event. I’ll have more info soon in case anyone is interested.chrsbc
