Vodacom In The City

"Jo'burg a-r-e you ready?" screeched spirited front-woman Skin to a sea of 11,000 indie rockers at Friday's Vodacom In the City in downtown Jo'burg's Mary Fitzgerald Square. As Cass' bass-beat pulsed through the bodies of the sweat-streaked fans, the air was filled with thousands of cellphones held up to capture Skunk Anansie's long-awaited return to South Africa. As the unofficial headline act of the evening, they thrilled the crowds with Skin's crowd surfing, cementing the iconic British band's performance as one of the best ever seen in SA.
