BIG DRUM BEATER



REDBULL INVITED ME TO BE A PART OF THIS EVENT THURS. JAN 29TH ,WHICH PROMISES TO BE SOMETHING SPECIAL.
THE ROOTS, A BAND THAT HAS BEEN TOURING FOR WELL OVER A DECADE NOW, NEED NO INTRODUCTION.
SOME MAY NOT BE AWARE OF ANTIBALAS, BUT IF YOUR IN BOSTON AND COME TO THIS SHOW, IM SURE YOU WILL NOT FORGET WHO THEY ARE.
I HAVE YET TO SEE THEM LIVE, BUT I HAVE SOME RECORDS BY THEM, AND THEY KILL IT WITH THE AFRO FUNK.
COMPLETE WITH KILLER BREAKS B-BOYS LOVE, AND THAT FELA KEYBOARD SOUND, YOU CANT LOSE.
I HAVE A BUNCH OF IDEAS FOR THIS SHOW....WE'RE SUPPOSED TO GET TO HAVE A REHEARSAL THE NIGHT BEFORE...FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD I WILL BE PLAYING RECORDS FOR EACH BAND TO FOLLOW ...THEN BATTLE IT OUT, ALL IN GOOD FUN OF COURSE. AKROBATIK WILL ALSO BE HOSTING.
SO I LEAVE YOU WITH 2 JAMMY JAMS...ONE IS TONY ALLEN ( FELAS INCREDIBLE DRUMMER) A DUB FROM HIS 12" RELEASED IN THE EARLY 80S, THE OTHER IS AN EDIT THE HOMIES HAUL AND MASON WERE BEHIND. IN MY OPINION WE HAVE THE BEST USEAGE OF THE COOLIE RIDDIM.

ENJOY......
