It’s something in a small environment that should be a treat to everyone.”The event starts at 9pm at the BAA gymnasium. Other live renditions will be provided by Flookie, Rivah, Junior C, Shine Hayward and Shorty Ranks.Tickets, $35 in advance, are available at Kit ‘n’ Caboodle, Fish ‘n’ Tings, The MoneyShop, Belvin’s locations and Somers Supermart.
