Aesop Rock

11 Aug

Man. I just saw this cat up in Dallas at the Grenada. Dallas fans represented like I’d never seen Dallas fans do at a concert. Usually cats are too cool for school. This shit was hype though the crowd showed a lot of love.You could tell he was digging it.

I would definitely drop in ANY time this cat comes to town. One of the best live MC’s I’ve seen in a long time. His rapping style reminds me of a trumpet player from the bebop era of jazz music–rapid fire and dense–fitting as many lyrics as possible within a bar and somehow making it work musically. He uses his baritone voice as its own instrument.

Dude was captivating and completely owned the stage.He was every bit as good as Busta Rhymes, Method Man, Black Thought, and Kool Keith. I bet tonight’s show in Austin will be just as good.

Geeking out on the internet part 30

I was listening to Joe Rogan reminisce with Bill Burr about witnessing something that can never be unseen on the Opie and Anthony show. After listening to the clip I had to see for myself. I must warn you, it ain’t for the faint of heart.
Hopefully this will temper any attempts of mine to make this blog thing a heady project. Just goes to show that one never knows what will pop up on this thing.

I hear the early 2,000’s was a great time for music up in Montreal. Apparently everyone was in a band playing in some basement somewhere. I’d love to go to a music festival up there someday before the apocalypse.

Yup. Next Thursday, in Dallas, Texas. It’s going down. I’m curious as to what a Kool Keith concert will be like.

This guy is coming down to Austin in September, one of my favorite comics and a Bay Area underground legend. I also heard he was in Mensa.

I got a chance to see this guy the other night in Austin. Fucking hilarious and quite clever. Full body laughs and tears. Only a handful of comics have ever gotten me to that place. This guy is one of them (Big shout out to my homey Shannon for gettimg me tickets and putting me up for the week).
