JULY 23, 2008
Canadian folks catch Joe Dub and NoCanDo who are out in Saskatoon for the Summer Fling Festival! Joe will be previewing a lot of his new material along with the classics, and I know NoCanDo has some crazy shit in store. Check it!
The 4th Annual Summer Fling Hip Hop / Art Jam is being held in Saskatoon July 25-26. Along with the emcee battle and graffiti jam, this year also features performances from Nocando (Project Blowed - 2007 Scribble Jam MC Battle Champ) , Joe Dub, Epic, Nolto, The Gumshoe Strut, Politic Live, Deepcave, LBA, Deezus, The Gaff and many more!
For those who have been patiently waiting for info (from me) on where to find the remaining copies of the Painkillers - Do Not Disturb 12 inch (the one with the labwaste rmx, and beats by riddlore and emynd), the wait is over. Go over and visit Shane @ So Far West.net who appears to have the last remaining retail copies at a completely reasonable price at his on-line store. Order a copy of Pooretry while your at it !
Due to technical difficulties the tag board will be down until further notice.
There are unbelievable things on the horizon!!
In the meantime, check out Asita's good friend Travis Jensen, at his new digital domicile: travisjensensf.com. Some crazy skate trivia contests are going down. Test your knowledge!
We had a blast with the Sideroad crew who were in town for the week. Kualoa, Waimea, Shark's Cove, Haleiwa, Lanikai, and all points in between.
Thanks to everyone who made it happen. Big Island sounded extra crazy.
Special thanks to Chris @ Prototype for showing everyone how we do in Hawaii!
Mahalo to everyone who came out and stayed to the watch the show! Congratulations to Ques for winning the battle, to all the entrants, participants, artists, and fans who made the night a success!

JOE DUB - GETTING BETTER WITH AGE interview
If you haven't heard of Joe Dub yet, it's time you go out and pick up his most recent work of art, POORETRY. He proves that some things get better with age. It is a 'play from front to back' masterpiece, that will have more replay value than adding up all the garbage you downloaded this past year. The bay area native took time out to chat a bit about music, video games, and Transformers.
