Skambomambo in Kidderminster

 

 

 Home to some of the greatest names in Rock history - mainly Robert Plant and other musicians he played with - Kidderminster has become SKAMBOMAMBO's home in the Midlands. The band relaxed, boozed and partied in this green, green quaint little town, making it a perfect escape from the larger Midland cities and venues. SKAMBOMAMBO found Kidderminster to be a great place to be, made a lot of local friends, got acquianted with several pubs round town - especially  The Swan where the band gave their farewell performance to the Midlands this time around.

An inspiring place - here the Band is on the Devil's Seat together with our host, brother, saviour Dysfunctional!!! Led Zeppelin territory, laid back and lots of love shared. Love to Meg, The Flower Lover, Pops, Ed, Colin ... to the Croatian and Slovenian girls who gatecrashed into our party and stayed on with us for the following week, Big Dave, all of you at Swan, Katie for her pics and living close to Meg's..... and a lot of faces and names we will remember forever.  

A big round of applause for the 3 bands that played with us everywhere: Mr Shankly - Lobster and Stiff Joints -Apples. The last gigs in the UK were in Moseley at The Bull's Head - together with Skafinger and Lobster and then in Bristol with The Richardson Maneuver.

The Arts Workshop at Samsone's Place in Worcester was home to Slap Night - Slap Mag's annual music bonanza featuring SKAMBOMAMBO & The Stiff Joints plus Ital Sounds, the right ingredients for an unforgettable night. Slap Magazine and Worcester has become one of SKAMBOMAMBO's favourite haunts. Thanks for all the support from the Hogans,their large circle of friends and the Arts Workshop. The 21st of April was a great one for the band. Here are some photos (Thank you Katie)
  

SKAMBOMAMBO in Digibeth Birmingham

 April 14th 2012: SKAMBOMAMBO return to Digibeth Birmingham.  Dancing in the garden of Evil was a great night held in the Wagon n Horses. The Midlands have become SKAMBOMAMBO's  home in the UK with venues like the Wagon n Horses inviting the SKA Made in POL-Ska for the second time. It was great to team up with the Stiff Joints again. The Heels came on next. SKAMBOMAMBO were given the honour to stage the last act although the official star of the night was  the grammy award winning King Hammond and the Rude Boy Mafia. A great night out for all those who attended and danced all night long in the Garden of Evil.      

Here's a fragment of SKAMBOMAMBO's Performance in Digibeth.
