Cool as Folk, green with goodwill
Greenpop brand ambassador Jeremy Loops was our first act of the night, expertly doing his clever loopy thing. Layering and looping vocals, guitar, harmonica and, at one point, a kiddies' toy-type piano contraption. With the help of guest artists, Motheo Moleko, guitarist extraordinaire Andre Geldenhuys from Machineri, and a saxist, Jeremy Loops and co won over the Assembly crowd with their heartfelt flashy smiles and high inspiring bouncabilty.
Keeping that bounce buoyant, next up, Hot Water took to the green-grassed stage and played all their hits, sans Tribal Man. Much to my disappointment, and to a few others in the crowd, we were denied seeing lead Donovan Copley get that intense look in his eyes, strip off certain items of clothing and swing from the rafters, as we have seen him do in the past when performing that particular song. Always the highlight of a Hot Water performance for me. To be honest I think it's high time that Hot Water released another album; I am just a leeettle tired of hearing the same material again and again. As good as it is, it's starting to sound a more like luke warm water to me.
Mix n Blend lived up to their name and played a great and varied selection of brilliant dance tunes that kept us happily throwing shapes on the dance floor till the early hours of the morn.
Thanks Greenpop for a lusciously green and groovy party. 'Til the next one.
