8 January 2006 @ 6:00pm - Free concerts at Subiaco. Picnic in the park anyone? Dancing? Slothing? Snacking? Wild, exotic rhythms, guitar and keyboard playing to match, the dancing and vocals of Ziggy Bey Jan, Senegalese percussionist extraordinaire - our souls will surely ignite! Ziggy, master of the sabar drums and the tama (talking drum), blends his traditional styles with the sounds of modern funk and fusion. Featuring Ziggy; Ilan Zagoria - guitarist from Zimbabwe; Troy Gennoe - WAAPA graduate bass player; Polish-born Derek Rucki - keyboards, South African-born percussionist Shane Kearney and Rob Binelli – drumkit. This blend guarantees to have us picnic-rug-dancing to their irresistible music.

Dress for funky dancing - bring drinks - you'll want them.

I was thinking easy to pick at foods that I shall plan later in the week but will probably involve a lot of fruit, cheeses and crackers.

Amazing - 3 Australian cracks and you haven't called us convicts yet. And who said the English have no imagination1? :)

1 Answer: everyone.

You aren't convicts yet because I haven't sentenced you. The phrase is something like extraordinary rendition isn't it. Oh, sorry, that's what you call music (-; [0]




[0] sorry
