goLocal @Bobby's in Diego Martin - revamped
« on: May 18, 2011, 07:36:51 AM »
Bobby's Bar in Diego Martin has been renamed/ tagged goLocal @Bobby's. The bar changed management in February 2011 and is now under managed by Babash Media and Events, run by a young returning Trinidadian from London Sean Annandsingh. Babash was actually a promoter of Trini events for a few years.

The space once a very popular location has now been reborn and is fast becoming the home of local arts and culture. The walls are hung with paintings by local artist Joel Lijertwood (all pieces are available for sale) and the stage area painted by both artiste Joel LIjertwood and musician/artiste Nickolai Salcedo of the band Gyazette. The background scene depicts many local known faces from Mungal Patesar, 3 Canal, Kitchener etc.

Local bands now have an additional space to showcase their talent every Saturday night and a few odd Wednesdays. On any given night it's quite possible to find a group of musicians just hanging out only to break into a lil jam session. The stage has been graced with the presence of Orange Sky, John Blood, Gyazette, Kin Sound System (formerly Kin Sibling Rivalry), 12 the Band, tassa groups, rhythm sections and many others.

The spot also has an in-house kitchen (fondly known as Homewreckers) that serves some delicious cutters on evenings: corn soup, pepper wings, seasoned steak fries, geera pork/wings/ chicken neck, gizzard, curry duck and provision, oildown... each night has a specific menu.

Note that while the establishment ensures that all performers are paid, the performances are free to the public so be sure to stop by on your visit home for the coldest beers at TT$10., delicious cutters, entertaining company and some local music...

security is present and parking is available!

Perhaps the epitome of a Trinidadian is the child in the third row class with a dark skin and crinkly plaits who looks at you out of decidedly Chinese eyes and announces herself as Jacqueline Maharaj.- Merle Hodge
