Mikey Dread is performing tonight in Alameda.

Some people call him legendary. I haven’t heard much of his work aside from what he did with the Clash, and that was legendary stuff, so maybe he is a legend. On the other hand maybe he’s just a way high cat who spins obscure roots reggae 45’s while looping jah rastafari shout outs through a vintage echoplex. That’s a bad joke. Obviously the guy is going to put on a big show.

I’ve never been to Rooster’s Roadhouse. They were clever enough to book Mikey Dread. It should be fun.
