YEAH!
The band is going to Durbs for a few gigs in early August. We played this event last year and it was very well organized, the sound-systems and engineers were top-class.
The main jam is happening on the Saturday night when about 20 guitarists will take to the stage and have a jam along with a host of drummers, perc-dudes, keyboard dudes and whoever else who was invited. I've never seen a stage with so many guitars and mic-ed up amps on it as did at last year's show, it's a sight to behold.
Don't be fooled by the "Unrehearsed" part, there are some seriously good musicians and guitar players on the bill.
Mike de Jager plays with Dennis Straton(from Iron Maiden), Sez Adamson is the finest Pedal Steel player in the Southern Hemisphere and Terence Reis tours with The Straits (formerly...uh-uhm...Dire Straits)
Hope to meet and greet some GFSA-ers from Durban when I'm down there. Come introduce yourselves.
