In March 2014 I made my way to RAMFest 2014 Johannesburg for a muddy weekend of great live music and fun interactions with my fellow music-loving humans.
More info about RAMFest 2014 Johannesburg
RAMFest 2014 Johannesburg was actually held in the Witfontein district (near Bronkhorstspruit) and featured three international headliners: Biffy Clyro, Foals, Trivium and Killswitch Engage).
Local acts that played on the weekend included Sutherland, Mr. Cat & The Jackal, Facing The Gallows, ISO, Gangs of Ballet, Agro, Taxi Violence, Pestroy, The Black Cat Bones and a few others that I can’t remember.
The Black Cat Bones played on the Saturday at RAMFest 2014 Johannesburg. I vaguely remember this set, but I do remember that it was one the best sets that I had seen by the band. They really brought their A-game and the crowd loved every second of it. I snapped this photo of the band during their set.
This photo is our photo of the week on SA Music Zone,.
Sadly, The Black Bones lead vocalist (Kobus De Kock Jr.) passed away a while ago. He was one of my favourite people in the the SA Music Scence. It was always lekker listening to his stories and jokes and to photograph him – I am really going to miss him. RIP Rot.
