Think Pink: “Rewind And Pull Up, Mi Selector!”

[Written by Chris Famous]

“Old time something come back again; Go run round the bend and go tell your friend” — Admiral Bailey

It is that time of year again when Bermudians play a little less soca and start tuning back into reggae. Not just any reggae, but some good old-time 1970s and 1980s reggae. You know, the reggae that had you jumping out of the window once you thought your parents had gone to sleep.

The same reggae that had you hitching rides to places such as National Stadium, Old Elliot, RAA and “De Barnyard”.

The reggae that had you drenched in sweat from head to toe from all of the skanking and whining you had been doing. Yes, that reggae; old-school reggae.

Take comfort in knowing that this time you won’t have to jump out of windows or be “bumming” a ride to the dance.

This time you can simply drive you and your friends around to Ambiance Lounge on the corner of Court and Angle Streets tomorrow.

You will be immersed in the modern contemporary surroundings and plush decor while you rock to the tunes of Bob Marley, Super Cat, Sanchez and many more.

These tunes will be delivered by veteran DJs Magic, of Souljah 1, and DJ I Breeze, of King Jyrus. Between the two of them they have nearly 40 years of experience in musically seducing the ladies of Bermuda.

They are without a doubt some of the finest examples of DJs / selectors who make the crowd shout.

“Rewind and pull up, mi selector!”

The “Think Pink – Old School and Sweetness” will be held on Saturday, October 24 at the Ambiance Lounge. The event will feature music by reggae veterans Magic of Souljah 1 and Dj I Breeze of King Jyrus, with women encouraged to wear pink. Entrance to the event costs $20, with part proceeds to benefit a breast cancer survivor.
