Event information

" CLUB SKA are proud to present the first show in over 25 years by 80's punk/ska legends the mighty CASE and their very special friends INFA-RIOT - also playing their first show in London since the 80's - with support from 80's ska legends THE RIFFS this incredible bill will make a night to be remembered for many years. MC's on the night will be Geno Blue and the wonderful Manic Esso (The Lurkers). The Club Ska Sound System with Andy V and Matty J and Top Deck Phil will provide a mash up of ska and punk sounds with dancing through till 1am.

CASE were often touted as "the best live band in London" in the early 80's - their 'Wheat from the Chaff' EP has passed into punk rock and ska folk-lore for its brilliance and rarity. November 5th will see original members of the band MATTHEW NEWMAN (Vocals), ROB BROOK (Guitar) and MARTIN PARROTT (Drums) and new member MARK WYETH (bass) play their first show together in over 25 years. Damaged Goods Records have gathered together all of the early CASE material in a new compilation CD entitled 'Ain't Gonna Dance' - which includes all the tracks on the 'Wheat From' EP and this show will mark the official release of that new album.

INFA-RIOT need very little introduction to punk fans. They made a triumphant return to live performance at this years Rebellion Festival at Blackpool and with LEE WILSON leading the way on vocals this prestigious night at the 100 Club will mark the bands first London show since the 80's. Club Ska are very proud that they have agreed to appear as Very Special Guests and know they will be fantastic.

THE RIFFS are old friends of CLUB SKA and firm favourites too. With hits like 'Blind Date' they never go wrong and made their wonderful live album at Club Ska in 2005. Welcome back chaps.

Expect musical fireworks on the 5th of November as we light the blue touch paper for a night of incendiary punk and ska!!
