Danny Dub Glassin' It
Godaaamn, it's been a minute, these past couple weeks have sucked some major ass although I managed to do some cool shit. The show @ Evergreen was insane, the sold out crowd was in the gym, it felt more like a party made possible by the dope sounds of;
Gabriel Teodros,
Khingz,
Blue Scholars, and
Zion I. Teodros and Khingz combined their act to open, and killed it, they used to be a group called
Abyssinian Creole. Then after about an hour open set where Teodros and Khingz got the whole gym dancing the Blue Scholars took the stage. Holy Fuck. I had been waiting to see these guys since I first heard "No Rest For the Weary" like Sophomore year of highschool, thanks to Brian ( i think it was in some ski movie). They're a hip-hop group that I've heard all their music, and constantly just shuffle all their discography and have never gotten sick of it. I felt like a little kid, knew every lyric to every song and just straight had agreat time, Mo and I were like ten feet off front stage.. That's why there's no pictures from the show...the whole show honestly went by in a flash. Blue Scholars flipped a bunch of stuff,like an hour and a half set; a couple of Long March E.P which I was psyched on, and Geo even did a couple freestyles. They also dropped a couple of new songs, one of which is a sample of that Owl City song. Fuck Owl City. I hate that guy, he should pay Blue Scholars to make his songs good, because they turned that song into the illest beat,
Sabzi is on some other shit. You should probably click that link if you click any one this entry. Zion I was unbelievable. I was actually kind of worried, well more anxious, because the Scholars killed it. But Zumbi and singer Courtney Holiday took the stage opening with
Antenna and the 808's were taken to another level. Show was dope, no pictures though. It happens.
We did go to Vancouver over the weekend, and wow. I'd been before but not on the level we experienced it, I want to go back every weekend except for Border issues and some random Swedish kids sleepwalking into our room and freaking the fuck outta me everything was ill. It's nice to be able to legally drink it a country, spent way too much money. We stayed right in downtown at the Cambie Hostel, pretty sure the bar downstairs, which is actually the entire downstairs is open 24 hours. We got back at like 4 a.m and the place was packed, good thing we were on the 3rd floor because it was pretty loud, but we had a pitcher and met some Swedish kids that were shitfaced and hilarious, however they ended up for some reason coming into our room like either drunk beyond consciousness or sleepwalking; my vote was for a combination. It should be a given if you stay in a hostel, weird shit will happen. But if we went back i'd stay at the same place. Following a pretty bad hangover, we got some coffee and hit up the well known
Cannabis Culture shop the next morning where we were invited upstairs to test out some B.C bud; legally. Whatsup. Hangover cured. We left Vancouver at like 1:30 and got back in Seattle at like 6 because of a two hour vehicle inspection provided to us by the U.S Border. Great to be home. Here's some recent pictures.
