Don't even need to recap. But I will.
The day started slowly..with many of the opening acts no-showing. Including Wale, Jay Electronica, B.O.B and Kidz in the Hall. The set Little Brother put on was pretty dope.
Flash Forward to my FAVORITE of the nite, De La Soul. They got it in, just had a ton of fun on the stage, I was loving it, because I've never seen them live, and they are one of my favorite groups. After them, I walked around for a while, watched Murs set from up the hill. And then went over to watch The Cool Kids. HAAAA, Dope energy from them.
Spank Rock SET IT THE FUCK OFF...I will stop there for now, because blogger isn't letting me upload pictures at the moment, so I will create a photobucket or flickr for the concert, then you can head there after you read to view all the videos and pictures.
THAT IS ALL! IF YOU WERE THERE YOU WERE IF NOT YOU LOSE!

ROCK THE BELLS WAS A SUCCESS.
Gordon Gartrell Radio (Phonte & DJ Brainchild) #9
EPISODE 9 Phonte talks about being a parent (something DJ Brainchild knows nothing about, thank God) and why you really don't wanna know how many sexual partners your s/o has had.
WORD.
"It actually wasn't Seattle, it was 'The Gorge' which is like in the middle of fuckin nowhere. Looks like the Oregon trail or some shit." - Phonte
LOL

Common Market - Gol' Dust
Matt sent this over early in the day but I was caught up and didn't have time to post it until now. I thought some of the other homies would get to it first but I guess not. Common Market is definitely in my opinion THE BEST live performances in Seattle. The fact that I have to miss Rock The Bells (same day as my brothers wedding) and the Fact that CM always tears it up is probably the only reason I'm thinking of getting tickets for Bumbershoot.
They're new album, Tobacco Road comes out September 9th. A MUST cop!
Download: Gol' Dust
Check them out on Myspace as well.

MURS HEADLINE TOUR ANNOUNCED
Murs will be headed to the Seattle area OCTOBER 11th.
I'm SUPER excited because I just realized (I knew in my head before hand just refused to believe) that my brothers wedding day is the same day as Rock the Bells. So I'm sad to say I have to sell my vip ticket to Smizzy. But luckily I still get to see MURS soon.
MURS!
