Vodacom Power Tour heads for Phakisa The biggest motor sport event in South Africa, the Vodacom Power Tour series heads to Phakisa on Saturday, 30 April for the Powerade Race Day. Six premier racing classes, including the Wesbank V8 Championship, the Sahara Production Car Championship, the South African Superbike Championship, the Vodacom Shelby Cam-An Racing Series, the Engen VW Polo Cup and the South African Formula Ford Championship, will be in action. Great news is that the first 100 spectators to buy their R30 tickets at the gate will receive a memorable Powerade Race Day T-shirt free! A lucky spectator will also walk away with a Sony PlayStation 2 console. The warm-ups and qualifying starts just after 08:00 and the first race will take place at 10:30. Gates open at 07:00. Nissan has returned to circuit racing after an absence of five years and the two Sasol backed Nissan 350 Z models will be piloted by the multi SA Champion Gary Formato and the veteran racer Duncan Vos. These will lock horns with the BMW's 331i and the Alfa Romeo 147 GTA models in the Class A championship. Speculations are that Audi will make its racing debut at this event. General tickets at R30 will allow spectators to watch the race from the embankments and also from inside the paddock. These tickets will not give access to the pitlane, but do give access to the back of the pits. Spectators can bring their braais and cooler boxes and refreshments will also be on sale. Children under 12 attend free. In addition Welkomites are treated to a special scrutinizing of the Radiator SA Superbikes in front of the Goldfields Casino on Friday night, starting at 18:00. Lots of prizes and free tickets are up for grabs. Meanwhile, the Castle Lager Street Festival, organized by the the Matjhabeng Publicity Association and Matjhabeng. Info, is at the same time as the races at Phakisa and three city blocks of the double roadway in Stateway will be enclosed with razor wire for the entire weekend. People can look forward to stunt men, dancers, an arts and craft market at Rovers Club, says Mr Johnny Abatzoglou, Chairman of the Matjhabeng Publicity Association. People are requested to only bring gas braaiers to the street festival due to the safety of the stunt riders. By Lisa Rivett “Piano Boys” is a musical journey through the careers of Elton John and Billy Joel. It is currently playing at Tusk Rio's Barnyard Theatre and runs until May 15th. The extremely talented eight-member cast consists of James Dobson (piano, vocals), Sean Butler (piano, vocals), Rike Coetzer (saxophone, harmonica, vocals), Adriaan Beecham (guitar, vocals), Mark Freel (bass, vocals), Colin Heaney (drums), Cherise Roberts (vocals), and Jack Deklerk (camera). James, Sean, Rike, and Jack are members of the original cast who began touring with “Piano Boys” in May of last year. The rest of the performers have joined the group at various times throughout the year. All of the cast members have extensive musical backgrounds, and James Dobson has had previous success singing as Elton John. “Piano Boys” has toured around to many different Barnyard Theatres in South Africa. When asked how Klerksdorp's Barnyard Theatre rates, cast members gave our audience a “thumbs up”. Cherise Roberts says her favorite part about performing here is when the audience gets involved. She also commented that she would like to see more people at the shows. Saxophone player, Rike Coetzer, said she really enjoys performing in Klerksdorp. She stated that the audience is always very warm and welcoming to the cast. Everyone agreed that even if the audience was small, they were supportive and enthusiastic about the show. “Piano Boys” is an excellent tribute to Elton John and Billy Joel. It is filled with great music, great costumes, and lots of fun. “Piano Boys” is definitely a show you do not want to miss. It only runs until May 15th, so contact Tusk Rio Casino, at 018-469-9100, and book your tickets now. Last Saturday afternoon was the crowning of the Miss and Mrs. Tusk Rio Pageant.
