Whos going to the Streets?

I am coming to DC tonight, I know thats a big occasion for all, haha. Who else might be there? to see the brits do thier thing.

I will be there, not sure what to expect

i'm going to the show…not sure what to expect either (from the crowd or the performers, actually).

Sonick,

I wont talk to you unless you trim your goatee and denounce radiohead, forever.

having seen Dizzee live already…. he's damn talented. but i coudlnt really understand much.

a lot of freestyling and talking to the crowd…typical hip hop stuff.

its interesting. i bet he will out perform Skinner.

Rap music sucks. Been dead for years.

I have had my ticket for over a month. Excited about this one. How long ago did it sell out?

i shall be there grinding my teeth every time he says geezer………..

There were still tickets yesterday afternoon.

I bought mine the day they went on sale.

And Rhett, if rap is dead, Rock and Roll must be putrifying, and country, well it crumbled to dust.

Sonick with no Goatee, YAY! Now if I could only call your G/F your ex G/F's name, tonight might be perfect.

Good job, your teeth of the British look like they could do with a clean.

I dont get this guy, he sounds like a rap version of ian dury…. double yeeeech

Both rap and country are dead, true. They both have mutated into abysmal crap, in my opinion. But at least there are enough retro country acts to make things fun in that genre.

Rock may be dead, but it's spawned some interesting subgenres.

Perhaps you should remind us of her name….. Just in case we get the right name by mistake.

I'll be there tonight! Should be a fun party at least.

i'll be there.

i'll be there. anyone heading from the catholic U area going?

The Streets are an amazing band. British social commentary over garage house beats. Skinner is an amazing artist, huge in the UK.

Hope everyone has a great time.

He has a band? Sweet. I thought it would be just him and a mic with a boombox playing garage beats.

Looking forward to tonight's show, although I wonder whether it will be full of hipsters fronting (like myself) or real hip-hop headz.
