I was looking forward to December 17th for a good long while, I even bought tickets to see KONGOS as soon as they went on sale back in September. I didn’t think I could be more excited, until the supporting acts were announced; with Saintfearless and Machineri completing the lineup, the night could truly be nothing short of awesome – and so it was.
Before their show at The Assembly last Saturday, I was lucky to sit in on an interview with South African Americans KONGOS. I was already a big fan of their music and can now happily report that they’re all really nice people too.
I’ll post a link to the interview as soon as it’s up, in the meantime, check out Liezel Thompson’s previous interview with the band over here.
The middle of Harrington street was transformed into a mini festival last Thursday – packed with people and loads of artists (including 340ml, Shadowclub, Sibot, Felix Laband and Cold Turkey DJs among others), the Assembly promised and delivered another great night of entertainment.
My mom works extensively as a photographer for the SAAF Museum at the Ysterplaat airbase. Last Monday we were really fortunate to have the opportunity to go for a quick flip in a Dakota over the city and Robben Island. It was amazing. Plus it happened to be my mom’s birthday, so cool.
Last Saturday Ysterplaat Airbsase held their annual airshow; it wasn’t on the same epic scale as last year’s AAD but was still loads of fun.
