If you go to Google and search for “Boschendal Grande Cuvee Brut,” you’ll see at the number 1 position is the article I wrote a couple weeks back, telling you about that exact product becoming 2oceansvibe’s choice brand of bubbly! CLICK HERE to see that original 2oceansvibe article That was obviously a prelude to the […]
Welcome to this week’s 2oceansvibe Show, brought to you by NoMU – eat. drink. live. And WHAT an occasion it is! Who would have thought that Helen Zille would accept the offer of being a 2oceansvibe Weather Girl? My goodness, what a surprise! Although, in all fairness, the allure of joining an exclusive club which […]
I heard the news last week and, to be honest, I needed some time to let it sink in. I was emailed the news before I left the Safe House that day. Later on I heard it on the radio and then The Muse told me that she (a VW owner) had received a sms […]
To say that I was the PC poster-boy, would be an understatement. I had a computer from the age of six and, given that I was an only child, I spent an inordinate amount of time in front of the various computers I have had throughout my life. Apart from the “SpectraVideo” and BBC computers […]
It’s with great ease that they do, because Boschendal Grande Cuvee Brut (lest we forget the Le Grand Pavillon Brut Rosé) has very recently become the sparkling wine of choice for 2oceansvibe. Hardened 2oceansvibers out there will know what it takes to get the nod as a 2oceansvibe brand and, make no mistake, this premium […]
Saturday was a busy day down in Camps Bay, with some kind of celebration/event going on. Something by the name of “Spring Tide” – resulting in hordes of youngsters over-populating the Camps Bay strip and beach. The Muse, The Photographer, Eddie S and I decided to take some refuge in the bar at The Bay […]
The cries from the 2oceansvibers out there who missed the 2oceansvibe feature on SA’s number one TV magazine show, Top Billing, were overwhelming. I knew I had to SOMEHOW get it onto the web for you to see! Just to run you through the process – I recorded the show on my PVR decoder at […]
You saw the 2oceansvibe interview with Goldfish a week ago, and you’ve seen last week’s Top Billing TV show. Nice. But now, finally, you can watch a live track from that day at the Cape Royale Sky Bar, with Goldfish – courtesy of Olmeca Black Tequila! Wait here for a black box to appear below. […]
Regular readers will know that there has been all sorts of Top Billing activity over the past week or so. Their crew joined us on the day that we shot the 2oceansvibe Show last week with Goldfish, and they filmed some behind-the-scenes stuff for the weekly TV magazine show, Top Billing. And it’s coming out […]
Here it is, the one you’ve been waiting for. The 2oceansvibe Show with Goldfish and Wonderbra model, Elbe Van der Merwe – brought to you by Olmeca Black Tequila (yummy). Seth and Goldfish Killing it.. [photo by verstercohen.com] Don’t forget, 2oceansvibe and the making of this show will be on TV in a special “behind-the-scenes” […]
Courtesy of Olmeca Tequila, Pussy Natural Energy Drink, Cape Royale Hotel and 2oceansvibe. What’s more, the only beer being served was Jack Black beer and the only wine was De Grendel Rose. Just because. All the professional behind-the-scenes pics are right here. The boys…the boys! You’ve seen that face somewhere before? The venue – shame.. […]
Muizenberg, Sunday – World recordphoto:lee slabber Cape Town surfers break Guinness World Record at Earthwave – To say that the Earth Wave CT Event held at Muizenberg on Sunday was a roaring success would be a huge understatement. Never before in the history of South African surfing have so many surfers participated harmoniously in […]
It’s going to be difficult for me to write this article without audio. Because I want to shout it. I want to scream it. It’s off the charts. It’s off the hook. And dare I say it, OFF THE CHAIN! Cape Town has NEVER seen anything like this before! Stop it It was […]
It is tradition here at 2oceansvibe to “call it” when it feels right for us (for you). I remember back in 2007, we called it on September 17. Well it looks like it’s 11 days later this year. Don’t know why – probably a combination of El Nino, global warming and Michael Jackson’s death. Quietly […]
Well would you believe it, I’m in the latest YOU Magazine! Even more exciting is that I’m in the issue with SA gold medalist, Caster Semenya, on the cover! And they’ve dressed her up all woman-like! Awesome! The 10 September issue cover Stunning! So, for those of you who are yet to find […]
At first I thought it was an ad for Kika-Sack balls, but then realised that they have created some kind of world cup dance. Like the Macarena, except impossible for anyone over 50 to join in. Pretty rad. I might need to practice those moves. Who knows – maybe there will be another […]
Mother dearest is in Cape Town at the mo and, as you can imagine, required high levels of attention at all times prior to my Los Angeles departure – including daily shopping expeditions, lunches and dinners. Between finding time to write for you and my waistline, I needed to find some time without offending her. […]
Hey gang, I’m sorry to do this to you, but daddy is going away for a little bit. I know you must be scared, but just realise that it is very necessary as it will bring me us one step closer to global domination. You know how busy daddy gets. I will be gone for […]
I am very pleased to announce that the Jack Black Beer tap had finally been installed at 1800 restaurant and bar at the Cape Royale hotel in Green Point, Cape Town. I am also pleased to announce that I am writing and publishing this article from said venue with the new software I […]
It’s interesting to note that Dirty Skirts lead guitarist, David Moffatt, sent this in. Michael Jackson is obviously one of his major influences – I had no idea. I’ve been given their latest album another listen, trying to pic up some MJ flavour…. but I can’t find it. But Dave does dance sexy – so […]
Paul from 1800 restaurant downstairs at the Cape Royale (click that if you haven’t seen this place yet) made a call to my room on Sunday night – “Thanks for the Butlers Pizza” he said, “the staff are all feeling the vibe.” Aah, good, the 10 larges had obviously arrived! Wonderful. They’ve got a lovely […]
Seth Rotherham’s primary residence in Cape Town (when not playing in The Safe House!) is a penthouse at The 5-star Cape Royale Luxury Hotel on Somerset Road in Green Point. From writing and thinking to meeting and drinking, this is where Seth conducts and facilitates “the vibe.” The 5-star Cape Royale Hotel and […]
[This article was written live on Sunday morning] It’s been a blur of a weekend really and whatever transpired has got nothing to do with the fat joint I had this morning before establishing myself in the Arniston Hotel breakfast lounge. You see, not only are you dealing with a view which could make Batman […]
I really must apologise for neglecting you like that. You know how much I love you and you know that it hurts me when you are sad. But I do have a very valid reason. And yes, I did remember to bring a note: I really had no idea that Le Quartier Français […]
There has been perhaps too much beaching following my stay at the Cape Grace Hotel and the kind people at Le Quartier Français in Franschhoek quite rightly assumed that I might need a good rest, special pampering and fabulous cuisine. A long weekend in their finest suite was proposed and, I’m the first to admit […]
You know sometimes when someone says something and a few days later something very similar happens? Ja, well anyway, I call it a “premonition.” People then also sometimes spice it a bit and stretch the amazingness of the particular premonition by clutching onto what we in the industry refer to as “fuck all.” Like someone […]
I tell you, it’s been a few years since I did New Year at The Mount Nelson. The last time was a bit of a blur but, funnily enough, it came up in conversation this week. The Fabrics Guy and I agreed that the last one got a full 10 out of 10, I asked […]
I am “between” laptops at the moment and am using an old beast (not too old – running XP) I had locked in a cupboard far far away. Apart from the trip down memory lane, courtesy of the old pictures and videos I found on the hard drive (not very good quality – the size […]
With a fridge filled with Jack Black upon arrival, I realised The Cape Grace were on the right track and should therefore experience even more of the 2oceansvibe. That is why I ordered Butlers Pizza on Friday night for myself – and threw in another human-height pile of pizzas for the Cape Grace staff. […]
The other morning’s festivities, which included The Muse getting her car clamped at my current residence, The Cape Grace Hotel in Cape Town; resulted in a great response from the 2oceansvibe community. Including this BEAUTIFUL photograph, taken by the equally beautiful Nicole B. Absolutely fine Now that’s the kind of sign The Muse […]
