    Posted on

    It started in 1938 and just keeps rocking n’ rolling into 2018 and beyond.

    From Sept 7th to Sept 9th the legendary Ace Cafe London celebrates its 80th Anniversary and 25th annual Ace Cafe Reunion at the cafe on London´s North Circular Road and on Madeira Drive in Brighton.

    Performing live and joining the celebrations at the Ace and at Brighton is Stray Cats drummer Slim Jim Phantom. Considered by many as the coolest drummer in rock n’ roll, and with over 30 million record sales, Slim Jim is set to lift the roof off at the Ace on Saturday 8th September, and then as the culmination of the Burn Up on Sunday 9th, to “Strut” n’ “Rumble” in Brighton
