sat 20th and mon 22nd...

what up my people? i can't front its been kinda busy lately...we've been having some transportation issues that have made performing more of a choir than it should be but hey,the show must go on...SAT 20th we wrapped up our trilogy show with triangle & rhino at howlers...seven years war also represented and it was good time..thanks to all who came out..we saw quite a few heads that we haven't seen in a long ass time..quote of the night: "damn,i didn't know zack could get down like that!!" we were very impressed with seven years war.hella dope and of course t&r rocked it like usual..
MON 22nd at the shadow lounge was our chance to open up for a hiphop legend by the name of 2mex...sahtyre of project blowed and LA jae of shapeshifters were also on the bill...to get to the point this was a real hiphop show for a mere 5 bucks which is pretty much next to free...yet there was only a few in attendance..really?...normally i'm not one to complain about people coming out to support and what not but honestly i was a little disappointed with Pittsburgh that night...its not too often you get to see seasoned performers like 2mex for so cheap...i wasn't expecting thousands of people or anything but c'mon folks..it was a bit embarrassing and i doubt it left a good impression on our west coast guests...especially since so many rsvp'ed the event on facebook...whatever,y'all missed out on some dope shit..real dj's with turntables( remember those?) were in the house...LA jae and lucid music's own dr.jones cut it up nice...i don't understand it.there was plenty of promotion by noble destro and his boys so whats the deal Pittsburgh? isn't everyone always talking about "lets build,lets support the scene,c'mon on out" ??? sure there was a little rain but other than that it was a beautiful night,the first we've had in awhile...
i'm not bitching because no one came out to see lucid music..weather its a full house or empty chairs,we're gonna rock it regardless...thats just part of the business...i just wish there had been a little more support for 2mex and co. the guys been paying dues and killing it for years...
on the brighter side of things...
lucid music is hitting the road for our next 3 shows..april 15th in Chicago,april 23rd in new york and may 1st in west Virginia...very excited,especially about the wv show...its at a college and the crowd should be pretty big..maybe the biggest we've ever had...more details to be announced...
