From Hanoi Rock City:
When it comes to reggae music, there’s really only two options: either you like it, or you love it!

Hanoi’s number one and best loved reggae event Skank the Tank returns for 2012 and is ready to reburn brighter than ever. This year we are going live – and to celebrate, HRC welcomes over a very special guest, Dr. Dapookaster from Thailand’s top reggae band, The Sticky Rice, for a one-off headline performance of live folk dub, which will include original tracks and soulful renditions rare Jamaican dub songs. Dr. Pook will be joined by Hanoi’s own big reggae hitters, Zamina, and a host of local dub, jungle, ragga DJs for a sensational, sizzling start to the summer.

The DJs who will cream off the night include Slo-Lo, who amongst his musical achievements was picked to pen the soundtrack for Hanoi Grapevine’s 2011 promotional video, and Hanoi Sessions JC whose production recently went viral across Vietnam with the hit ‘Oi Gioi Oi’.

These musical treats will be supplemented by cocktails in coconuts, chilled beats, swaying hammocks and a delicious BBQ on the go to draw out the true, reggae festival vibe. We welcome you all to boom shake, love and create with us throughout the night.

Variety and quality is the flavour of this bowl of porridge. HRC will be stirring up international and local talents and serving them up in one delicious pot for only 50k.
