Got to hand it to sketchy and everyone involved in the “Beats Roots and Leaves” event at Jackson’s Boat, it was a sterling effort all round and the people who attended certainly help provide a friendly atmosphere(apparently they had 600 turn up), hoping they’ll do another one soon.
The event raised over £3000 pounds for the Medecins Sans Frontieres and its work in Dafur, and also hopefully helped raise awareness of the plight of the people there.
I managed to get some video footage of the night for my YouTube account and this can be seen below
While at the gig I bumped into Mach V, Spackler and The Svelte One from the Big Chill Forum, was also introduced to Spackler buddie in arms Dave, so Hi Dave and thxs for the email 🙂
My only disappointment was that I could’nt persuade more of my friends to come along, but they all cried off skint, which I suppose is fair enough, but would of been nice to have more of us there, main thing is John and Sophie both managed to make it and from what they told me they throughly enjoyed it and would be willing to come to any future such events, so good on ya John and Sophie.
Alos managed to get a few photo’s of the night, but due to being a little worse for wear a lot turned out a bit fuzzy, but feel free to have a look anyways
