Boston's own ska legends, Guns Of Navarone, will be tootin' their horns in Worcester tonight at Beatnik's, 433 Park Ave.

Guns of Navarone formed in 2007 and have since been playing traditional Jamaican ska from the 1960's, rocksteady, and reggae music. They play songs from; Desmond Dekker, Max Romeo, Toots & the Maytals, the Skatalites, the Specials, and many more. According to their MySpace page, their nine peice band is a high energy ensemble of talented musicians based largely out of Boston yet have members from Worcester to Rhode Island as well. This should be a fun show with people dancing, singing, all while having a 'Gansett.
