7am load up, 7:30 hit the road. 3pm check into rooms 7pm check into venue, 7:30 sound check, 9:30 perform. That is usual as far as traveling goes. We hit the Blunt Club at Hollywood Alley as the first stop on a little 4 day trip through Arizona. It was amazingly hot, but people out there just deal with it. The Blunt Club has a great thing going. They spin the best in the golden age of hip-hop, lots of dope breakers and a nice venue. Its always interesting to see how a hip-hop crowd reacts to us. At first we gave them a few songs to get acclamated to the sound, then they gave us the love we wanted. A friend from Fresno and a talented timbalero named Mario also came through with his girl, so it was good to see a familiar face. Thanks again to everyone who came out.
