Little Dragon- "After the Rain" Live @ Cafe Du Nord in San Francisco 11/23/08

This show was just what the doctor ordered. The whole weekend was an emotional shithole for me, and Yukimi and crew were exactly what I needed.

This was one of the best shows I've ever been to. Top 5 for real.

The last time I was so blown away at a show was when I saw LCD Soundsystem at The Fillmore years ago. I went cuz M.I.A. was opening, and had no idea who James Murphy and band were, and they hit me. Hard.

Shows like these don't happen all that often, and when they do, you just gotta savor those times.

iLL-Literacy show in NYC Wednesday night 11/12!

So the homie Ruby of iLL-Literacy hipped me to a show they're having in NYC tomorrow night. If you're not familiar with ill-Literacy, here's a blurb from their website.

iLL-Literacy has covered much ground in a short time, rocking stages from off-Broadway New York to London's Picadilly, to its home base in the California Bay Area. News of the amazing talent has drawn attention from HBO's Def Poetry and MTV, as well as crowds who have witnessed the collective share the stage with the likes of Common, Mos Def, KRS-One, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

More info, and tickets can be purchased HERE.

ENJOY THE SHOW!
