Shows around my way this month

5/31- Talib Kweli w/ full band and J. Pinder: Show was dope, but I blacked out halfway through Kweli and I don't remember any of his performance

6/12- Tech N9ne w/ a bunch of people

6/19-Childish Gambino w/ Danny Brown: Really excited for this one; I've heard good things about both artists' live shows

6/24- Atmosphere: This is the only one I'm questioning, how are they live? Tickets are like $25 and I don't want to shell that out for a show I might not enjoy

I've heard good things about Atmosphere live. They pretty much made themselves on the road.

Seattle's J. Pinder???

I seen that dude live a couple times, he always puts on a great show.

Yeah, that J. Pinder. He did indeed kill it

Tech N9ne show was slammin' the whole night; can't wait for next week

Joey Diaz is in Buffalo 6/21... your favorite comic's favorite comic. His shows are usually pretty cheap. I may or may not be able to get the night off. You will laugh your balls off, Shaun.

6/30 Toki Wright

I just got back from the show, and MAN! It was bomb! He put on a great show, and I managed to give him a copy of my spoken word. I performed during the open mic section, and received many compliments! I'm sure a lot of people gave him albums, but I hope Toki checks mine out and likes it.

You left out Iron Maiden (with Alice Cooper opening) at Darien Lake. I know it's not hip-hop, but I'm all over that shit!
