Thursday, November 14 - Play Deep Cuts:
support by Mephiskapheles, The Drastics and DJ Chuck Wren
Friday, November 15 - Play Love and War:
support by Pinata Protest, The Scotch Bonnets and DJ Chuck Wren
Saturday, November 16 - Play Big Tunes:
support by Green Room Rockers & special guests, The Prizefighters and DJ Chuck Wren
The Slackers have spreading their gospel of "Jamaican Rock N Roll" for 21 years now. While they have been influenced, and even personally taught by Jamaican ska/reggae originators, like the Skatalites and the Upsetters (Original backing band for the Wailers) they play it with a decidedly American accent. Basically, this band is equally appreciative of old blues, country, 60s soul, rock, and Rnb as it is of reggae, rocksteady, dub, and Ska. It is as if the Rolling Stones or the Yardbirds had grown up on Bob Marley as well as Muddy Waters.
