This turned out to be the stormingest show THEWHATWORKS has ever seen, confirming that we are now properly growed up and kicking into 2009 in big bad style.
Thanks go to all our spectacular acts – Element Dance, Jackson Pinto, Cordo de Ouro London, Lewis Campbell, VJ Scott Radnor, DJ Pedro Pinto and of course the freshly debut-ed virgin house band. But most of all thanks to you all for coming along and throwing yourselves into THEWHATWORKS spirit with such abandon.
The Samba singalong had the crowd swinging as never before – we were truly impressed at the number of people keeping up to speed with the rattling Portuguese lyrics! This is something we must try again. Perhaps in English another time 😉
Another big thank you to Gary, the cachaca-man, who managed to serve the crowd all the caipirinhas they could get through – one handed!
Although it was great to see so many of you there, we have realised that our little sound system is just not capable of coping with such a crowd, so CosmoBar have gallantly promised to fix it up before the next show. So thank you for bearing with us and keeping the spirit strong – here’s to the next time, new, improved and better than ever before – watch this space for news.
Warm wishes and the last of the caipirinha kisses to you all,
THEWHATWORKS team xXx
