Madness and Ska tribute act Badness plays classic hits from Madness, Bad Manners and The Specials, with The Zynx as support.
Badness play Social on Saturday 20 February, with The Zynx opening the night. It's a double bill of ska and punk, so you'll get two bands on the one bill.
Badness have been around since July 1994, when they started as a Madness tribute. Over the years they've grown into one of the top tribute bands and ska/2Tone revival acts in the country, selling out venues across the UK and Ireland. They describe themselves as a market leader in the tribute and ska scene, and they're known for an energetic show and a frontman who whips the audience into shape. The set doesn't stop at Madness, though; it draws on Bad Manners, The Specials and more, so you'll hear a good spread of the era's big names.
Opening for them are The Zynx, who play punk, alt and ska, so the night stays in the same general territory from start to finish. Between the two acts, you've got the Madness tribute and the punk-tinged ska of the support.
