About me:
:: Upcoming shows 2008 ::
At long last, an update from aka-SKA. Upcoming shows for 2009 • Skalloween IV – Aberdeen’s original & best Skalloween :: aka-SKA plus Famous Ape :: Moshulu, Sat 31st October :: £5/6 • Drummonds, Aberdeen :: Sat 12 Sept Been a quiet 2009 so far. Toby, our friend and drummer, left the band (reluctantly) for personal reasons. We’ve recruited Craig M as a replacement, and our first gig with him will be Cafe Drummonds on Sat 12 September. Toby will come and play a farewell show with us for Skalloween IV – this is at MOSHULU on Saturday, October 31st, with support from Famous Ape and the aka-SKA DJs. Ticket prices to be confirmed, but will be around £5 or £6. SKALLOWEEN IV is at Moshulu on 31st October Note that another venue is promoting their ‘annual Halloween ska’ event as skalloween – but it’s not aka-SKAlloween!! That venue, where we did SKALLOWEEN in 2008, did ask us if we would play support to their main act. We declined, as we had already agreed to our own SKALLOWEEN IV at Moshulu. So it’s a bit cheeky of the other venue to market a skalloween, knowing that aka-SKA’s Skalloween is the same night... but hey, it’s your choice, you pays yer money... we’ll speak to Moshulu to get advance tickets available soon, and we’ll see you at Moshulu for a ghoulish good night!
E-mail iain@aka-ska.com if you want us to bring some ska into your life.
I play bass with aka-SKA, a ten-piece ska & 2-tone machine. Based in Aberdeen, Scotland, we are an all-singing, all-dancing, 20-legged celebration of ska and 2-tone tunes.drop by our web pages at
www.aka-ska.com

Who I'd like to meet:
We're always up for new gigs in new places & if you have a ska/reggae or similar kinda band, drop us a line to organise some events.
