Live shows at tattoo convention
The Cape Town International Tattoo Convention 2010 runs from 22-24 January 2010 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC). A sub-theme of the convention is sidestepping the stereotype, something that the convention organisers have insisted be reflected in the live music component of each concert, hence the rare diversity of acts chosen to perform at the two live shows.
Each show will be themed in honour of classical tattoo style icons - Lady Luck and Man's Ruin and Lady Luck will run at the Mercury Live & Lounge (43 De Villiers Street, Zonnebloem) on Friday 22 January and Man's Ruin at the Assembly (61 Harrington Street, east city precinct) on Saturday 23 January.
Entrance to each music event is R60 at the door or free entrance to those with Southern Ink Xposure Weekend Passes (available now for R250). Single day admission to the tattoo convention is R120 and a weekend pass is R250 which allows unlimited access to the convention for all three days and free entrance to the concerts.
More information can be found at the event's website: www.capetattooconvention.co.za or via the event's Facebook and Twitter updates.
