Due to Brexit I'm now only interested in indigenous musical styles, like the UKIP Calypso by Mike Read. Here's a possibility, though - Jah9 is in Germany the following weekend! http://www.jah9.com/tour-1/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
your mother Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Meant to put Cymande also from that lineup, think he's playing Ronnie Scott's soon too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eFestivals Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 well, I'm now just about convinced that West Holts will have Damian Marley this year. I know Damian has been on the booker's hit list for a while, and his tourdates have it look like he's in Europe from early June until early July. Thanks Steve.

Tuna Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Happy for ya, Neil. Hope this still leaves room for Toots somewhere - though preferably not as a headliner but as a nice sunny boogie. But where else but WH? :-s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Just now, Scruffylovemonster said: Where abouts would he play you reckon? Is he headline size? West Holts probably doesn't have the budget to have a more expensive act above someone like Damian, so my guess would be as headliner.

mjsell Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Chances of Toots? I'm not sure whether to splash out on a ticket to see them at a local gig with the specials. Tickets are quite pricy though so would prefer to have the option of seeing them at glasto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Reasonable, I'd have thought. Not played since 2010. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 Maybe a wee bit too post punk for the Holts (think The Slits, The Raincoats), but Sacred Paws have got that old highlife / Soweto thing going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoBalls Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 The West Holts Facebook page has woken up this evening after its winter hibernation... just updated address details but the fact that they're back again is a good sign!
