Dook and the College Dropout
I hesitate to say anything too nice about Dook with the Final Four coming up this weekend, but someone over there did a really nice job booking their annual Last Day of Classes concert. Yep, that's right - Kanye West and Dilated Peoples, Wednesday April 21 on the main West campus quad! I just hope this show won't fall victim to the typical hip-hop concert delays and cause me to miss any of Four Tet at Go! later that night.
On a related note....UNC almost never gets to blow massive wads of student fee cash on campus hip-hop shows, but this year they've actually booked a Nas show at the Dean Dome - and on the day after Kanye, no less. Student fees partially subsidize the Nas show so that student tickets are only $10. But still, it's not quite the same as a free outdoor Kanye West show....and I just learned that Hell's long-awaited Super-Trivia-With-Cash-Prizes is scheduled for that same night (4/22). OK, enough with the planning for late April...
Currently listening to: the debut of Air America. In general, this sort of babble-heavy caller-centric talk radio is not exactly my cup of tea, but this new network is clearly an important and exciting development.
