As always, we will be give at least a tenth of all profits to the Alpha Boys School (and home) in Kingston, Jamaica - in tribute to Don Drummond, Tommy McCook and Alpha???s other great musical graduates. Children in need of care and protection come to Alpha through the Family Courts in Jamaica, (some abandoned, abused, orphaned, incorrigible). Without Alpha and its continuing music program, there would have been no Skatalites, no reggae as we know it and no Mash it Up! But now, the economy of Jamaica has put the school and its children in jeopardy. Club organiser and DJ, John Baldy said:???We are delighted to have the opportunity to give a little back to the school which gave us so many of the musicians that we love to jump around to at Mash it Up!" Sister Susan Frazer at Alpha Boys School said:???Alpha needs money URGENTLY at this time. Continuing with these severe financial problems will not be possible without some serious and consistent level of financial support. We are working now to build a trust that will secure Alphas' future into the next century. I'm grateful for any help that Mash it Up! may be able to give. God knows right now we need it. God Bless.???Contact: [email]baldheadselector@mashitup.org.uk[/email]This remains a predominantly advance booking only event for the good people on my mailing list and their good friends. Please note that this event sold out some time in advance last time. I am keeping a VERY few tickets back for purchase on the night to make things slightly easier for those working the door - but I expect almost ALL THE TICKETS WILL GO IN ADVANCE.*** All you need to do to get yourself on the mailing list is ask by the way. ***[/b]RespectBaldy[email]baldheadselector@mashitup.org.uk[/email]
