Chaka Demus & Pliers: to go or not to go?

[MrBen]

Kind of similar to *Bob*.

I've been offered 1 free ticket for bombastic ragga bum grinders Chaka Demus & Pliers at the Brixton Academy on October 30th. With support from Mr Loverman himself....Shabba!

Whilst I have no interest in this apparent 90's ragga revival I'm a total sucker for anything free. Is going to see one of, like, your least favourite bands evuuuuurr - nearly ten years after they broke up - invariably a bad idea?

[HonaloochieB]

I'd go, but be warned Chaka Demus is sweetheart, but that Pliers is a mardy sod.

[Keef]

Now that I would go to!

[HonaloochieB]

#Until me reach climax...#.

That was a line from their hit, whose name escapes me and I don't have a pop encyclopaedia at hand to check.

So anyway go, what else will you be doing?

[*Bob*]

Well, as you say - it is free.

But then so is crushing the heads of a spare box of Bryant & May and using them to set fire to your pubic hair.

Proof - if any were needed - that free does not necesarily mean 'worth doing'.

[Horsebox]

I'd definitely go, if only to hear them perform

. Great track, boomshank!

[Nero]

But then so is crushing the heads of a spare box of Bryant & May - I used to call that a 'genie' when I was younger (so much younger not to have pubic hair).

Maxi Priest is also playing that night at the same concert - surely that is worth going to??? I would not go for Shabba (he is not that good live) but would love to see Maxi.

Thanks for the clip of 'Murder she wrote' Horsebox - got us grooving in the living room!

[MrBen]

And any bets on the crowd?

After an expensive month, that's my tomorrow night taken care of. Is there anything more cheering than that 'singey' smell?

And I've got some long matches for the oxter hair.

Cheers *Bob*.

Thinking of the concert rather than pube burning I would reckon aged 35 upwards.
