Mystical Delights and Ingenious Madness fitting for the month of March. Fancy a cuppa tea with that???
Unlike the Mad Hatters traumatic little event, this one promises to delight.
And so it shall. Prepare yourself for this is one event that bound to turn your world inside out.
Join the “madcap melody-makers, artists flamboyant, syrupy tea-ladies, freakish party animals, cross-dressing gorilla’s, candy-floss cowgirls, rooibos sippen diva’s, greased-up rockers, disco deviants, swingtastical jazz-cats, loved-up funkters, queenly kings, kingly queens, non-sensical amusers, trumpet blasting poodles, cupcake cuties, cookie-cutter mullets,betty crocker matrons, minge muffins, crimplene cookies, animal crackers, hot-but-not-cross buns, iced fancies, eccentric tribesman, afro-shaking mama’s, unorthodox greeks, harmonious poets, rubbish magicians, safari suited cubans and possibly that smelly family dog too!” and enter a world beyond imagination.
As you may have guessed this is more then upper nosed high society cradling the finest china. However there are recommended behaviours to observe.
For instance the actual act of tea drinking is a highly sophisticated art form and if therefore more refined then your usual cuppa tea. However this isn’t a pinkie in the air kind of affair…so kudos to creativeness and originality. What would the world be without it?
This is your weekend to let out your inner child and run wild. (Terms and Conditions always apply)

It was all doom and gloom at Assembly on Halloween and not in a bad way either. Guys running about in sparkling silver dresses and combat boots, Marilyn Monroe drag queens, KISS wannabes and of course the obvious bruised and battered Frankenstein brides all made an appearance. Assembly went all out, lining the walls with cobwebs, dismembered dolls and creepy blood-covered toys. If judging by appearances, this was sure to be the party of the year. Or perhaps not.
Despite the unique appeal to South Africans, Botswana’s Wrust were overshadowed by Carcass
I was in touching distance of one of the founding bands of death metal, and I honestly did not know what to do with myself. The band had just walked on stage with a presence that made you forget about your numb feet and hands from standing in the cold and just heat up instantaneously. With a songs from their third album Heartwork, like Buried Dreams and No Love Lost, the time that every serious metalhead in South Africa had travelled to see had arrived: Carcass.
