Should be well up to the usual standard of unsurpassable blimmin' excellentness. See you there.

Boom - you in da pub before?

No excuses, as there’s no footie this Thursday, the 29th. This month’s BASH features the legendary Jerry Dammers, who formed The Specials, set up the groundbreaking Two Tone label, and is notorious for djin’ the finest in ragga, roots, funk, ska and Jungle.

Additionally The Bug will be collaboratin’ with “Unorthodox Daughter” Nolay and Roll Deep’s dread mc Flowdan.

Loefah will be bringin’ on the finest in dancehall panache and Rootical specialist Dean I Grade will be celebratin breakin free from the door at Plastic People and killin a recent dj stint for, bizarrely enough The Rolling Stones of all people.

Having witnessed New Flesh’s Part 2 smashdown Shoreditch and Anti Pop’s motormouth rapper M.Sayid tear up last month’s night, alongside a slew of awesome dub poets, BASH has become a mecca for Bass fiends. With Nicolette, Warrior Queen, Ari Up, YT, Digital Mystikz, Digital, Jimmy Screech, Seanie T and Ricky Ranking having already played BASH, the temperature just keeps getting hotter.

alright - see you there. I am guessing they will be sticking to their usual opening times so see you at maybe 10:00? I've got family over beforehand but will try to get down earlier...

Martin's ITA also.

anyone else?

I'll be in the Barleymow around 9.30. Pleased No Lay is going, as I thought she was the best thing about grime, full stop. But let's avoid that funky house bar this time round.

it was a good night as ever but imho what makes bash exceptionally great is the added energy from the mcs and this time nolay and flowdan didn't show up which took a bit of an edge off the normal bash experience. but the music and vibe was still top quality - no where else i'd rather be on the last thursday of the month.

Don't want to slag Bash, but didn't really get into it much this time, as Boomnoise says was a disappointment No Lay couldn't haul her lazy arse out of bed, Jerry Dammers was pretty good though, he was dressed like a cross between a sultan and a tramp, was also nice to meet Boomnoise's mate though I was sort of only joking about the Cockney Rejects being an essential example of post-punk. Favourite moment -Kevin Martin dropping 'Police Officer' and the original version of 'RIP'

i haven't been to BASH or FWD since the transformation.

Yeah it was under par - merely a great great reggae night, instead of being the best place in the world!

Some great selections - Doorman Dean played a stormer, even including some 80s Jah Tubbys business. Dammers was excellent. We've been spoilt by previous nights, maybe.

I finally got to meet Georgina Drumz and have nice chats with K9, Kmart, Boom etc...

I was pretty far gone by the end and would like to big up Martin for rescuing my camera. :eek: Photos to follow at some point.

Anyway - strickly FORWARD!
