About
|
G I Roadshow (Good
Intentions) was established in 1987 by Andrew (Megas).
We have members like Rosie, Mark (D Science) and
Oniel. Mickey performs the role of a mike man at
large and very important events. We play at a
variety of functions including private parties,
charitable events, corporate functions, as well as
local community events. We are currently resident at
a local pub in Camberwell every Friday, playing
along side R.S. Digital of Good Feelinz Roadshow
Sound. We are also hired by several of South
London's hottest nightspots. These include:
Scenarios Diamonds Porkys La Fez Waves Promotion
&The Brewers
We have also
participated in quite a few stage shows throughout
England and Wales with such acts as Merciless, Alton
Ellis, Everton Blender, Bunny Wailer and Mark
Morrison and warm up for 1998 World Gold Cup Clash
(Temple), to name but a few.
Quite recently we have worked with a radio presenter
in Germany and went on to play in Austria and
Germany.
In the past I have worked with quite a few London
radio stations but I am currently concentrating on
working with the local community, as well as private
functions.
As you will see from above, we have been working for
well over a decade and are pleased that we have
built up a fantastic clientele who continue to work
with us time and time again and kindly recommend us
to others.
LONDON CARNIVAL 2007
FEEDBACK
We feel that the 2007
Notting Hill Carnival was a great success this year
because it was a peaceful enjoyable event over the
two days. The Sunday is called "children's day" but
on the Monday, there were equal amounts of families
with very small children to be seen everywhere which
reiterates the point that the event has become safer
over the years. Where we were positioned, we could
see a steady stream of floats going by followed by
adults and children in exotic costumes with
different themes. Then behind them were members of
the public who were happily dancing away in the hazy
sunshine in the afternoon. Members of the public
would stop by and dance to the music being played by
my sound system, G I Roadshow and they would stay
with us for some time as not only did they have the
opportunity of listening to an eclectic mix of music
from different genres, but there was the aromas of a
wonderful selection of Caribbean food nearby, which
added to the atmosphere. Overall, the Carnival was a
huge success of which we thoroughly enjoyed
participating in and will continue to do so, going
forward. G.I Roadshow would like to thank the
following djs and sounds for making this years
Carnival an enjoyable event: Woman of Moods Mix
Master J RS Digital G Rocky of Renegade
International Sham and the Musical Touch crew D
Science JJ and mc Sharky Cooney G
