GIG OF THE WEEK
Vodacom unlimited house experience
Chillas Pub, tonight
Be part of the fun when Chillas Pub gives the stage to some talented DJs who include Ralf Gum, Christos, Vinny da Vinci, Tim White, Strat3gy, Zeal and Tsakane.
With such a gifted line-up it is a pity the show only starts at 8pm because it seems each DJ won’t have time to play us all our favourite joints released by them.
Sponsored by Vodacom, this mini-festival is going to be an informal battle of the great minds of house music. All tastes will be catered for, from deep house to the more contemporary club sounds you can dance to.
It’s a new year and if you listen closely you might hear what could be the anthem of 2012 by year-end.
The show has travelled to Soweto, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, Durban, Mamelodi, Polokwane and Bloemfontein and now it is time to end things off with a number of bangs.
This event is the last of the long-running Vodacom Unlimited Urban Beat House Afrika Tour and Chillas Pub is looking to make it a memo-rable one. Those keen on celebrity gawking should attend because although we do not know who will be there, our celebs love to attend these kind of shows.
Chillas Pub, cnr Nzima and Ndabezitha sts, Tsakane. 8pm. R50. Doors open at 8pm and you’ll pay R50 to enter before 10pm. Should you arrive later you’ll pay R80. |Tel: 011 788 8725 for info.
