Man I wish I lived in LA for sure. Sad Fat Beats is closing though. Hope that Language Arts repped Seattle super hard (he's a filthy, flithy, filthy MC).

Yup, it's the final weekend. Here's a list of appearances for the rest of the weekend:

Not listed on this flyer, but Ugly Duckling will be there on Saturday at 6pm.

I'm going there tomorrow to pick up from whatever's left. There's supposed to be some really nice deals going on.

Wish I coulda gone to either store when I was in LA and NYC, oh well. Looks like Outside Lands was a success. Can't wait for the new album!

If groups nowadays worked even half as hard as PUTS, the industry would start to flip on it's back & the truly gifted artist's would be on top.

Amen to that.

...On a side note, anyone else dissapointed bou the lack of press Carried Away got? I really thought it was gonna be the "blow up big time" album for them what with the video for trippin @ disco aswell, i thought it was gonna be their year, then again, i thought the same bou Fun DMC? Im not saying they had a bad year n flopped, far from it, they seem like they have a pretty solid fan base etc, i dont get how radio will play some generic indy band or another female singer songwriter, but wont play an established hip-hop band, playing good fun beats with positive lyrics but instead play rap bou sellin drugs n growing up in the ghetto? this is turning into a rant so ima stop here. lol.

Peace

It's because there isn't anything in it for them, besides the fact that they would be playing really good music. When the big money stops pouring into big label project's, hopefully then, we will see a change in the mainstream landscape. 'Till then, I'll just lift my little finger at them with a big smile on my face!

I'll have to go visit fatbeats one last time in LA.

That's some good news to hear from PUTS!
Thanks for the heads up!
