from the moment they started setting up; the drummer came out and did a few stretches, the band members were joined on stage by a strange group of surfer dude-types, and there was a subtle shift in the crowd that was hard to pinpoint until the band later mentioned that there were a lot of Durbanites present and then it all made sense&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It really was an interesting crowd; some memorable characters included a guy slouched against a wall\u00a0with what looked like a mini accordion under his arm (I kept expecting him to go up on stage at some point but he never did), a girl with a big square box of a bag which seemed to contain only a small camera (which she seemed to use mostly for selfies) and a guy in a Rancid T-shirt with a 6 inch mohawk.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style

they&#8217;d have a broad appeal. They were super fun to watch with great energy and a wacky sense of humour. Their set was peppered with funny comments and banter, the best being when vocalist Purity said &#8216;it&#8217;s so hot and humid in here&#8230;it&#8217;s just like Durban!&#8217; and &#8216;we used to be called Freshlyground&#8230;then we moved to Durban and did a lot of drugs&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>She also mentioned that the band&#8217;s long-time drummer had left them 5 days prior and their current drummer was playing his first ever gig with them that night. He did an awesome job.<\/p>\n<p>The band&#8217;s sound was harder than I was expecting: punchy ska-punk with a South African edge. I really enjoyed them.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-13853 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/lauramccullagh.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/fruits-and-veggies_LMcC_7599.jpg' title=\"Fruits &amp;
