The Skatalites

Location: Melkweg, Amsterdam
6th November 2003
9 PM - 11.30 AM
€18.90 + €2.50 membership

WERE NOT WORTHY!!!!!
I have never seen the Melkweg so full of people. The people were from every walk of life and they all unanimously shook they're asses. Dutch people actually danced....Everyone cheered and smiled and toked and toasted. And that was just the crowd. The Skatalites were spectacular. They lived up to my every expectation and surely must have been everything anyone else could imagine or remember. It took me back...Years.

Professionals all the way, they must have the collective age of Australia as we know it. They seemed to have recognised that a touch of youth sprinkled in offers a little more energy at vital points in the gig. I think there are 3 members of the original group remaining, on the night the group including drummer, bass player, sax, trumpets, trombone, synthesisor and vocals. It was a long and non stop gig, no supporting act etc.
