I can’t believe I have to find the words to explain what went down Wednesday night at Zanzibar. Incredible, wow, unreal, great, THE FUNK! For real, this was one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long long time. I knew something good was going to go down when people started calling me a week before the event. I hit up my homie Dan to roll out to the event and take photos. Good thing I did because this was an event that shouldn’t have been missed.
Dan and I showed up to Zanzibar, and one of the first people we saw was Dam Funk. No matter how many times I’ve talked to Dam, it still feels surreal to me. I mean its Dam Funk! A note to all you music lover’s, show up early and you might meet your favorite artists. Anyways, we talked for a while as more folks started coming in. Zanzibar was getting packed pretty fast. Later on Jacqueline, from Mint Collective, needed a little help interviewing Electric Wire Hustle, so you know I was down for that. Walking back I ran into friend after friend rolling up for the show. It was going to be a great night.
B+C got invited to check out Shafiq’s rehearsal and interview at the KXLU radio station Thursday night. Camcorder in hand, it was an experience. The video gives you a glimpse of the rehearsal, so you know the show is going to be banging. The rehearsal is for the upcoming show Plug Research 2010 (December 22). In addition to the crazy lineup there will be DJ sets by Deadelus, J. Rocc, & Kutmah. Your host for the evening is Pharoahe Monch! What are you waiting for? GO GET YOUR TICKETS NOW!!! BIG thanks to Rocío for the invite and DJ Chuck. The Band:Andres Torres – Guitar, Brian Martinez – Bass, I Ced – Keys, Computer Jay – Keys, J1 – Drums, & Te’Amir Yohannes Sweeney – Percussion
