M.I.A. in the City

M.I.A. Wednesday 10/5/05 at SF

M.I.A. (aka. Maya Arul­pra­gasam) will be in SF this week. She’ll be over at the Vir­gin Mega­s­tore doing an in-store per­for­mance and sign­ing this Wednes­day, Octo­ber 5th at 6pm. Hope to catch that and get some picks of her in action.

Mean­while, the same night, she’ll be head­ing over to The Grand Ball­room at Regency Cen­ter (1300 Van Ness) for a show. Only $20 (avail­able through tick­et­mas­ter). I hope to catch this one for sure rather than see­ing her at Oak­land Arena on Decem­ber 1st cause of the smaller venue fac­tor. Even though she’s duo-ing with Gwen at Oak­land. Damn—its both a win-win sit­u­a­tion. Choices, choices, choices.

Any­ways, if you aint doing Wednes­day night, those are the places to be to get hit by smash­ing, new sound. It’ll for sure rock your socks. See you there.

10th Annual Redondo Beach Lobster Festival

Redondo Beach Lobster Festival

Just got a word from Cicely that Redondo Beach is host­ing their Annual Lob­ster Fes­ti­val this week­end. Damn, too bad I can’t have a copy of myself go there. As L-boogie would say:

Two MCs can’t occupy the same space at the same time …it’s against the laws of physics” ~Lau­ryn Hill, The Score — Zealots

Any­ways, for those going, make sure to eat a small break­fast to expand your stom­achs. So you can get as much lob­ster as pos­si­ble dur­ing the fest. Damn, mmm mmm mmm—lobster!
