Just some of the bands these musicians have founded or performed in, include Guns n Roses, Def Leppard, Velvet Revolver, The Cult, Deep Purple, Skid Row and Collective Soul.

Road upgrades in and around Cape Town has been phenomenal  with the boys at the council working around the clock to ensure that our roads are the best  in South Africa and ready for the high season as thousands of visitors are expected to stream into Cape Town. The Talbleview bus route has been extended that makes the flow of traffic more efficient and bearable for the locals.
