Hi all

Back in April I had the great honour of touring with The Wailers, the band that first brought reggae music to the attention of the whole world. The highlight of that tour was undoubtedly a hot, humid and very special Monday night on the Cowley Road in Oxford, and an atmosphere the likes of which you don't get to experience too often.

The Wailers want to experience it again.

i was there there first time, it was very good indeed

still, seems a bit rich to call them 'the wailers' as there's hardly any of the original members in there (1? 2?). they're just a very good cover band really.
