Hurrah. I love reggae. Oh. But it's in Newcastle. Damn. Anyway, for those of you who a) live in or near Newcastle or b) are better at working out a train timetable than me, The Boss Sounds Reggae Festival takes place next month at the University of Northumbria. The event, which takes place on 13 Nov as part of the city's Alive Festival, "tells the history of Reggae music from Ska to Dancehall" and will feature appearances from, amongst others, The Skatalites, Alton Ellis, Johnny Clarke and Eek A Mouse, DJs David Rodigan (Kiss 100), and Jerry Dammers (The Specials).
