Instant Kaffein: Soweto Rock Revolution

If you asking the “whats” and the “wheres” then you have already missed the first one, The bands, the scene, the quarts, the mosh pits, tattoos and cigarette burns…the pilot project that got the big cheese; The Soweto Rock Revolution : Punk Fuck event hosted at the Street Hawker Concept Store in Dube Soweto.

The organisers have been so busy building on the great success of the first edition of the event that it was fitting for us to sneak in an Instant Kaffein interview, where we asked them a few quick questions on who they are and what you should expect for the next instillation pragmatically called Soweto Rock Revolution: Punk Fuck II.

               

  

      

      1.       How did Soweto Rock Revolution come about?  

                 Collaborative effort between musicians, creatives and artists.

     

      2.       What were the major challenges in planning Soweto Rock Revolution:     

                Punk Fuck? 

                Money.

      

      3.       The first offering was really dope, great crowd and a diverse selection of    

                bands. How did it make you as the founder feel when it all came      

                together? 

                Happy as fuck, what a success.

      

      4.       Any highlights at the first Punk Fuck event? 

               The bands, the crowd, love, skating, beer, kids, tattoos, art, creativity; We 

               just wish Nelson Mandela was still alive to see this.

      5.       How do you see this event impacting on your community?

                Kids will see life differently and realise there is so much more to it, when    

                they go outside it would be nice to look around and hopefully get inspired to   

                take over the world through art. 

     6.        What should we expect from the upcoming Punk Fuck gig in   

                February?

               Come with an open mind.
