It will benefit you greatly to head directly to the Shack and Mercury complex early on Friday afternoon, because the action gets going early. At 6pm, radio show The Wrong Rock Show welcomes the young and restless with their brand of great old and new album rock. But those coming for the live component of the weekend will not wait too long. The dynamic Crimson House Blues will kick the live weekend off with a Namibian bang just after 7pm. so there's no time for snoozing.

From that point, it's a non-stop action weekend of top new acts from Cape Town and surrounds. Rolling Stone Weekend runs two days - 14 and 15 Spetember, both from 6pm. Tickets are R60 at the door for each day. A full weekend pass is available for R100 at the door on Friday.
