The Vancouver date is August 1st at Deer Lake Park, which is one of our better venues in my opinion. The lineup has been finalized, available after the jump. Tickets go on sale May 2nd. For more information click HERE.
Vancouver is on the lineup once again. Most of you probably remember last year we had a September date for Thunderbird stadium but we were removed (if I’m remembering this right) from the tour because of the border difficulties that come along with trying to bring in 400 rappers at once. Hopefully this time it works out… stay tuned for a specific date and venue.

Shaun Gladwell has a clip that plays on the FutureShop/Winners screen (Granville & Robson) every three minutes. I haven’t seen it but it’s a clip from his ‘Storm Sequence’ skate vid pictured above. As I understand this isn’t the first time the city and galleries have rented time on the screen to show art. I don’t usually pay attention to it but it’s cool that it’s used for things like this from time to time.

Starting at 5:00pm tonight, stores all over Gastown will have merchandise on sale. Bust out your magnifying glass and click above to decipher which stores those are exactly. Seems like a lot of them will be providing (free?) refreshments….. I’m sold.
I’m doing this because of time constraints (literally.. I’m late leaving my house ’cause of this post) but also out of respect for the clothing line and blog—oh and that Pluskratch dude is alright too!

It’s actually a good store… and things like free(?/cheap?) alcohol are pretty much cool too so come show your support. I’ll be the dude wearing $20 worth of clothing and $300 worth of shoe. (…I kid, I kid.)
For our readers that don’t know, here in Vancouver we have an area called the downtown east side—more specifically we have a street called east Hastings. This is what it’s like… click “read more” and press play on the song. Both the images and the music capture it quite well…

Here’s some footage of Common showing Vancouver some love at his recent show with N.E.R.D. He does pretty well, and even mentions the Vancouver Grizzlies! Big thanks to Glenda for the “exclusive video privileges..”..
Chill sunday afternoon painting.. 20 feet in the air on an aladdin lift, by one of Vancouver’s graffiti forefathers: Dedos, of AA Crew.
Sorry, I didn’t get an interview or anything. I’m not an investigative journalist—I just blog! I mean, I got some photos, what else do you want from me?? Just playin’ … I probably would have made the effort to chat with him and ask a few questions but as you can see, he was busy.. and high up in the air. He couldn’t even really hear me the first two times I asked him if it was cool that I took the photo above. Check out the rest of the photos from today after the jump…
Come check it out tonight! Click here to see some older artwork by Dre, aka. the dude I started this blog with, if you haven’t already.
Opening reception is tonight (September 5th) from 7 to 11pm!
