CityLove Photography: StreetScene Tour ...EPIC.

To sum up this day is ridiculously hard...but it was RAD....like rad to the max. My friend, 2Slice (that is his actual name) who does important stuff over at 031 and Corner Cafe ,messaged me a while back and was like 'We're doing the StreetScene Tour with some Durban Bands and you need to come and bring that fancy pants camera of yours to document it' ,SO... I did. I rocked up at Corner Cafe today with my partner in crime-Kerryn... also known as The Dark Knight who coincidently does some event happenings for the 031-Guide to Happiness (people...just follow the link..I cant explain these things everytime). SO its2Slice,Myself,Dark Knight,Jonas & Paul from The La Els and Matt & Marty from City Bowl Mizers (these are both RIDONKULOUS Durban bands whose music you should have, just by the way) all tucked safely into the silver quantum ready for our big adventure.

I can't even begin to think where I should start with trying to describe our days activities but it involved visiting the oldest house in Durban(like 100 and something years old...that is OLD), climbing down some slopes to visit caves and check out how people live there ( surreal I tell you,) ,we went to the place where Mandela cast his vote, (check out 2Slice casting his vote...a bit late...but still...it all counts right?) Our tour also involved a much needed visit to Sfiso's Store,where some thick dance vibes were being sent out by 2Slice and the locals. We went to a...well I dont really know what to call this place...lets go with 'local watering-hole' called Hlabisa in Kwa-Mashu where we had meat that was so amazing that the band boys decided they needed to plan a man-braai for the evening.(and you all thought it was only women who planned that stuff).We watched a bit of some apparently 'very' important soccer game too....2Slice was getting so into it he hugged some random innocent bystander. The locals were AWESOME and I would say that Marty from C.B.M pretty much made some friends for life with the lo-cals. (you go Marty). We ate,drank and were merry. On our way home we stopped off at a house in the township where literally every kid in the neighbourhood came out to greet us . The boys (I have to refer to all the band folk as this otherwise its too complicated) seemed to be quite the heros amongst the kiddos...I even remember hearing Jonas doing some counting skills with them. (Hey Jonas...you could totally teach if your voice fails ok) I honestly think I speak for a lot of the crew when I say this was pretty much the perfect way to end the day. As one of the boys summed it up... B.D.E.... BEST DAY EVER.

PLEASE just do yourself a favour and book yourself and your mates a tour with StreetScene Tours you will just overflow with awesomeness afterwards. Check out their website for all the details and tours are customizable. OH YEAH.
