I was supposed to see Rahzel in England in 2005. Then the retarded terrorists bombed London and Rahzel canceled. Fuckers.

But at least I was introduced to DJ Skully and Jehst at the show.

Here's a direct link:

Going to ticketlink reaffirmed how awful Korean websites are. Especially when viewing them with a Mac. One simple screen should not tie down the PC speed due to hundreds of pieces of crap, nor should my "NoScript" software be warning me about the page.

I saw a "Visa" advertisement at the bottom of the main page. I wonder if they are like Interpark and refuse to take a foreign-issued Visa card.



I don't know that I'll be seeing The Roots for 88,000 or 110,000 KRW. DJ Shadow was spectacular, and only 35,000. I don't think NIN was even 88,000.

for a group like this I would pay more than 110,000 as its not often to see a hip hop act like this make its way out here.
but for this show ur crazy if u spend 110,000 won, as its a seated ticket on the second floor.

The Negro mystique still commands a hefty premium in the Korean marketplace. But 'I Shall Pro-ceed' ... and Continue to Support Malik B.!

Interesting quote in there. The cost may be worth it now.
