    Anyone going to it?
    It's on the 19th of February, C Rayz Walz is coming with him.

    I figure it's going to be a great show.
    He's my favourite emcee so I can't wait for it.

    Though I do have one Q, Def Jux site says its on in Ra Ra, so I presume they mean Ri Ra.
    I've never been there for a show, and I'm wondering how it works? Which part do they have it on in, cause it's a pretty small place.

    :D

    I kinda like Bazooka Tooth, the productions not great on it but his lyrics are still generally tight as hell.

    Though it is nothing compared to Labour Days, the only thing that comes close to that on Bazzoka Tooth imho is 11:35 with Mr.Lif.


    Anyway, I still want to know where and when can I get tickets?

    Exactly what I thought early on (it actually stayed on the shelf for three months with 1 listen to its name).. have started playing to it a lot more recently tho.. its definitely a grower. Give it time.

    I rang up Ri Ra and it's just pay on the door. Starts at 11:30pm (I think) and it's 12 eurobucks.

    Got tickets for myself and the missus from Sound Celler on Saturday, can't wait for it. It's a steal at 12 Euro for one of the best rappers around. Never been to Rí Rá before though.

    Damn funny, it's an interview with C Rayz about the show.

    I really can't wait for this show, should be damn good considering Ri Ra's such a small venue.

    Whatd people think? laughed my head off at the gudmen, embarrasing... overall a pretty decent show, wasn't leaving going "whoa" or anything, but pleased enough at having seen it.. freestyles at the end were good, great version of no regret, lots of stuff of bazooka tooth, and of course finishing with the stunning daylight.. i think it did lack something though, or maybe it was just because i was so incredibly tired...

    That freestyle kicked ****ing arse.
    Gudmen were...I dunno, alright. It was a pretty daunting task coming on before Aesop.

    I just wanted it to keep going on. Thought Aesop was great, shame he didn't do more. C Rayz was good too, his freestyle was funny as hell :D

    I agree completely, though Daylight was just fantastic. The gudmen cracked me up, especially how they insulted the crowd and the venue hosting them saying we were being ripped off for pints. The irish accent just wasn't meant for rapping though.

    Btw El-P's new album high water is amazing, anyone reading this will probably enjoy it.

    Show was good...freestyles were damn nice. Was talkin to C-Rayz after the show, I gave him a photo of some pieces I did to sign and he was goin on about new york graff and the up crews (TC5!!) for ages...sound bloke, Aesop Rock's a wierd genius...

    Gudmen were dire, well, the mc at least, DJ was decent enough...

    Oh yeah, Big Wiz!! lol, he was funny...
