Arrived just in time, shortly after eight o'clock, to catch Skindred at the Warsaw Ursynalia Festival. Admittedly, Skindred are not really my cup of tea, but I wanted to catch them out of curiosity.
At the end of the Skindred set, I asked my mate Romek what he thought about Skindred, and he said that they weren't his kind of band, but that the vocalist, Benji Webbe was a good laugh and had created a great atmosphere:
Yeah, couldn't have put it better myself, Skindred are the perfect band for revving a festival up, and soon after hitting the stage, they had more or less everybody jumping up and down.
In between a couple of songs, Benji Webbe made a point of making the crowd fully aware of Skindred guitarist, Mikey Demus:
But of course, the centre of attention was always going to be Benji Webbe, whether singing or chatting between songs:
As expected, he shared the centre of the stage with the customary Union Jack:
Don't know much by or about Skindred, to be honest, but did recognise 'Warning' so I guess this may be a bit of a signature tune. Also just read that Benji Webbe was the frontman of Dubwar who I kind of remember from the early/mid-1990s.
