CyberHippie Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 Another free harbourfront show tonight! Just in case anyone didn't know about it.Free afro beats, yeah!!
dimafleck: the living legend. Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 what time do these shows usually start?
kc Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 I'd guess 9:30. That's when Lee Perry went on last Monday, which was dope. get there early to claim your space though. The place gets packed.
DevO Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 I'd guess 9:30. That's when Lee Perry went on last Monday, which was dope. get there early to claim your space though. The place gets packed.On Monday night for the Lee Perry gig, if you got there at 8pm you could've still snagged a great spot.Kenny I saw you but from a distance! I was there with Dave McKenna and co. Great show.
kc Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 Hey Kev-O. It was a great show. Can't beat free and an harbourfront in the summer. Lee Perry seemed like the hippest kid show sing-along old man in the world.
CyberHippie Posted July 2, 2008 Author Report Posted July 2, 2008 That Lee Perry show was indeed dope. Best venue in the city awesome free dub beats! Looking forward to the same tonight, except less dub more funk!

Jay Funk Dawg Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 That was pretty wild - nice to see you there Trev... i didn't know you had re-branded yourself!!
mark tonin Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 My wife Liana and I were both there last night, groovin' and shakin' with smiles on our faces. A high energy show and a cool venue. And the price was right, that's for sure! Peace, Mark
CyberHippie Posted July 3, 2008 Author Report Posted July 3, 2008 (edited) Hot hot show!!Good to see you also Jay! Edited July 3, 2008 by Guest
DevO Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 This was the best show I have seen in ages! Maybe because I wasn't going in with sky high expectations or something, but I was just blown away. It was a 15-person band, with many of the members looking old enough to have been in Fela's band for sure. And I have never seen a man dance like Seun Kuti -- that man has got moves!
CyberHippie Posted July 5, 2008 Author Report Posted July 5, 2008 I don't know about the rest of ya'll, but I had more than a couple of those hair tingling moments. Know what I mean??I swear the ghost/spirit of Fela was in the house!
Jay Funk Dawg Posted July 5, 2008 Report Posted July 5, 2008 Seun is more Fela then Femi.I still like Femi better - having met the man a couple of times - he's trying to do something more original with Afrobeat then Seun - I have massive respect for both of 'em.
CyberHippie Posted July 6, 2008 Author Report Posted July 6, 2008 (edited) I think Seun is channeling Fela. So maybe it's not as original as in new, but it's the genuine article...-- edit --Not that I'm saying Femi isn't something special also, but I agree that he is likely the one taking it new places.Just some late night ramblings...

Thorgnor Posted July 6, 2008 Report Posted July 6, 2008 original like an eight mintue saxophone honk?
