The Assembly, for those of you out of the loop, is a relatively new venue in Cape Town that has played host to some of South Africa's top-notch bands including Springbok Nude Girls, Fokofpolisiekar, aKing, Taxi Violence, The Dirty Skirts, Freshly Ground, Prime Circle, Goldfish and the list goes on and on.
Right now it's pretty much the place to be in Cape Town if you're looking for a venue that can handle a big crowd and provide great lighting and sound quality. I had an interesting conversation with someone the other day about where I prefered seeing live music, Mercury vs Assembly. Mercury has its good points, but The Assembly came out on top once I'd weighed them both on the point scale. Great vibe, great facilities, great line-up...but don't take it from me, check out their nifty promo video.
