Here's are the details. It's at Spanish Fly, 6:30pm - 9:30pm. Sac brew, and 58 degrees are donating the beverages. 54321are djing, and the lonely kings, dead celebrities, and vanish affair are playing.Fortunately the bands will be in one room and the djs in another so you can pick yourpoison. Any unwrapped toy is fine.
Chris Macias is doing a three part series on South Sac rappers. The really entertaining part is the comments after. There are a bunch of the inevitable anti hiphop ones that a bunch of uptight squares wrote. I liked this one:
From a 62-year old man and his 66-year old wife. COOL! Like our dances and concerts when we were younger, audience participation and lots of highs and FUN! What a PARTY!
Now that's the spirit!

"Perhaps rap music would have its place in our educational system where the words and lyrics reflect how many of them live. Their craft could be documented as an ethnography but not as entertainment, for others to understand the groups which the rappers come from and how being subjugated results in this social subcultural composite."

I saw the rap article and just scaned through it to see if it mentioned anyone I knew. Seems like a good piece of work...but the reason for the comment is that you mentioning the bee article reminded me that I'm waiting for you to say something about last week's cover story in the sn&R. Am I the only one who thought that a) the story was very interesting, b) the reporting seemed fairly solid, but c) that the structure of the story as well as the writing itself made article kinda poor?

The B.L. Kennedy? I somehow have managed to live downtown for quite a few years without ever having any direct contact with this guy, although I've heard some stories. I thought the article was really interesting and seemed to be fair and balanced as far as not being a slam or a whitewash. I just hope to god that I'll never have to lay eyes on that 60 page poem about the instant that Jim Morrison died. Fucking boomers!
big jim morrison statue in nakayata park...some heavie duty yakuza types drink this expensive tequila their and will not let you sing door songs...jay
i had an old co-worker who i was sympathetic to because of turbulence in his personal life. he was sort of the quintessential aging DnD nerd which made me feel like I should be extra nice to him during his divorce. But then he started trashing rap music and all my sympathies flew out the window.
Seems like many of those aging, gamer, 20-sided-die lovin' guys are big on being hip-hop haters, and usually for all the most ridiculous reasons.
Hey, watch yer stereotypin'. I'm an aging D&D (actually AD&D, ha) nerd, and I engineered the first couple Brotha Lynch Hung albums, plus a whole lot of others. So there.
But I can't speak for all former role-playing gamers. We should ask the Four Eyes what they think about hip-hop.

> think about hip-hop.
The Four Eyes recorded LL Cool J's "Momma Said Knock You Out" so that should answer your question.

Point taken. That's why I gave myself so me wiggle room by saying "many" and "not all." And in full disclosure, I'm getting on in years, and have plenty of old missions from TSR (literally) in my closet gathering dust. Or maybe in storage.
