Bongo Beat Records is on tour!
We are taking our music, books and shirts and deals all over Quebec
and Ontario over the next 3 months, bringing our music directly to
the people. Bongo Beat will have a booth at various Record Shows and
Book Fairs with label owner Ralph Alfonso at each event to man the
table, meet old friends and introduce music fans to great music on
the Bongo Beat label.
Free Bongo Beat cds will be given away at each event while supplies last.
"This is a great opportunity for me to meet fellow music and zine
nerds and answer questions directly and explain what the label is
about, " says Ralph. "At the same time, you never know who will drop
by and I know a lot of folks used to enjoy my poetry zine and my live
appearances so this is another way to re-connect until I get a new
album out and get back into touring musically full on. I did a few
shows over the summer and I had such a blast that I decided to really
go for it this fall."
Here is the full Bongo Beat Tour itinerary. Come say hello to Ralph,
buy cool music, chat about beatniks, garage rock, punk 77, comics,
Gestetner machines (hey, we also need ink & supplies), The Diodes,
the label, and whatever. we will update this list should more shows
come up. http://www.bongobeat.com
