Despite all the hoo-ha leading up to this one and the bloody awful weather, the Witnesses (that's you lot) did us proud by braving the elements, turning up and bringing the ruckus. A MASSIVE thank you to everyone who came - you all rock hard, and we hope you all had a good time.
THE FABULOUS BEAVER BROTHERS put on an absolutely blinding set while keeping everybody guessing; pin-balling between soul/funk goldies like 'Play That Funky Music Whiteboy', and tits-out mental renditions of tunes like 'On A Ragga Tip' and 'Rappers Delight', giving each tune their very own special 6-piece live band treatment. And by god it worked! Pretty much everyone in the place was jumping around on the dancefloor like nutters by the end of their set, and the band earned mad love from the organisers, the landlord and (most importantly) all the Witnesses in attendance. Well done guys - you absolutely demolished it!
The DJs did a sterling job on the night too, in particular resident DJs Wilsta and Milster, who dropped some of the best tunes I think we've ever heard at CIGAW? - excellent sets you guys.
Final thanks have to go to CIGAW morale officer Marcus for the good vibes, and the landlady Sophie for letting us go on MUCH longer than we should have (obliging the repeated calls of "ONE MORE TUNE!" from the dancefloor). Oh, and to those who stayed dancing to my house and breaks set until the bitter end - good work dance-monkeys!
Well, that's us done for another year. Thanks for all your support at our recent nights, we hope you all have a brilliant Christmas and new year, and we'll see you at the next one on FRIDAY 4TH FEBRUARY 2011!
