This weather is pretty shitty. In Grant county near the Mississippi nearly every road in the county is closed. 2 chunks of the interstate were closed last night.

On another note. Im going to talk to a lady about a loan today. Cross your fingers i get approved. If i do, swap here i come!!

dude, save your money and pay for it that way. with finance charges you are going to pay extra.
i would only go down that route if my motor was blown.

 

[anfrey]

i agree 100% with tony. plus you get to earn interest while you're saving the dough

The Berkeley, CA Paid Dues show has been canceled. I just entered my backstage room in Denver and Murs hit me with the news.



All tickets will be refunded. Contact whoever you got tickets through.




Sorry for the bad news. It is a total surprise. Low ticket sales is the reason. Mos Def, De La Soul, Sage Francis, Blackalicious, Murs, 9th Wonder, Supernatural and Scratch, B Dolan, yakballs and Braille. Still low ticket sales. Craziness. Its one of my strongest markets too.



I'll be putting two shows worth of energy into this show tonight in Denver since I was preparing for two shows on this trip.
