How much straight up sex do you think happens when UB40 finally plays “Red, Red Wine” after a thousand sweaty, overworked high school English teachers have knocked back a dozen or so Long Island Ice Teas? We’re going to bet a lot. They only throw down like this once a year, and they’ll be damned if that 30 year old dude still wearing a pooka-shell necklace doesn’t have their chubby ankles behind his ears in a bathroom stall by the end of the night. Blouses and dockers on the floor.
UB40 play to a sold out crowd tonight at the Commodore Ballroom
