spacecowboy Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 The Slackers are a seven piece band that hails from New York City. Formed in 1991, the band has been experimenting with mixes of ska, reggae, soul, swing, garage rock, and jazz for over 10 years. By following their muses of the Skatalites, the Beatles, Bob Marley, Lee Perry, Bob Dylan, and Curtis Mayfield, the Slackers have created a niche all their own in contemporary music. The rhythm continues with the release of Close My Eyes, The Slackers seventh full LP, September 9, 2003 on Hellcat Records. The Slackers continue touring the world to spread their message to the masses. their fall/winter tour USA 09.12.2003 Trocadero Philadelphia, PA All Ages 09.13.2003 B.B.

spacecowboy Posted September 19, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2003 Man whatta show!! 2 sets. Tones of stage antics. Looks like the band is jamming it out a little more this tour. Throwing in teases everywhere. If your looking to get out of the rain tonight head on down to The Horseshoe tavern. Judging by last nites crowd. Its most likely to sell out. .
