The Wrecking Ball: Goodbye 2013

1 performance between Dec. 31, 2013 and Dec. 31, 2013
Performance Party
Presented by Umlilo & The Wrecking Balls
240mins
2013 has been a wreck! We've seen ratchett behaviour become the norm amongst the world's rich and famous, twerking went mainstream, we've seen natural and man-made disasters, we've suffered great losses and gains, one of those gains is great friendships, new partnerships and the ability to laugh at life's idiosyncrasies. Dress up as your favourite or least favourite 2013 person and come toast to the end of 2013 with a smashing wrecking ball hosted by Umlilo. For the first time the Upstairs is going to turn itself around, packing away the seating to make space for a dance floor and raised performance stage.

DJs will provide some old school pop, R&B, hip hop, rock 'n roll as well as some future kwaai, punctuated by performances from some of the Other City's craziest dancers.

9 - 10pm: Gennacide - indie-rock/pop tunes
Special guest: Lulubelle with a hip dance act accompanied by ArtXCrossroads
10-11pm: Angelo Vilario old school Disco Heaven
11- onwards: Umlilo - Good Bye to the Best of 2013 and the Countdown to 2014
Special guest: Robert Haxton with a Britney Spears tribute.

Last rounds is at 2am

Always a lovely atmosphere at The A Bar but felt the music choice was not great for a New Years eve when people want to dance their way into 2014 . It seemed to appeal to a very select group so was more fun to be outside. Better selection after 1 when Kim was DJ :) Still had a good time .
