The ska band from Birmingham, finished their Irish tour in Cork after performing in Dublin and at The Tramore Ska, Festival, Co Waterford on Friday night. The last time The Beat played in Cork was in 2007 and also way back in January 1981 when they played with The Specials at the UCC Downtown Kampus (The 'Arcadia') which is now no more.
The Beat were at the forefront of the 2-Tone ska movement in the late-70s and early-80s. They hit the big time with their first single, Tears of a Clown/Ranking Full Stop and quickly followed this with a record deal, a debut album "I Just Can't Stop It" and several hit singles including "Mirror in the Bathroom", "Can't Get Used to Losing You" and "Hands Off She's Mine".
