Random Evidence & Dj Babu sighting
So I was reading one of my favorite MMA blogs bloodyelbow the other day and saw they had a mini-documentary about fighter Allistair Overeem posted. The opening sequence of its about him returning home to the Amsterdam airport after defending his title, and guess who i spot in the opening frame? Evidence & DJ Babu from Dialated Peoples. Probably the most random thing i’ve seen in a while. I’m sure the guy who shot/edited it knew who they were because he included the instrumental to one of their songs, but i very seriously doubt Allistair Overeem saw them, or knew what was going on.
You can peep Ev look back at Babu like “I wonder what all the hoopla in the airports about?“

The Opus – Praying Mantis release
My dudes The Opus from Chicago have a new record out called Praying Mantis. I had no idea until they posted this video of their release party on their Facebook page. If you’re into instrumentalism, kind of like what i did on Chamber Music and Sign Language, then please give these dudes music a listen. You can really vibe out to the stuff their playing in this video.

Michael Jackson Tribute – Fri. June 25th @ Skullys
Me and my homies are throwing this Jam. Michael Jackson died on June 25th last year so it’s only right we have a proper throwdown in his memory. If you live in Columbus, hope you all can make it out. If you’re looking for something to do in Columbus directly after Comfest (which ends at 9pm this year BTW), this jam is for you.
Hope to see you out!
McDonalds & The American Family
A couple weeks back I was taking a break from some home remodeling work and decided to hit up McDonalds up (i know i know McDonalds is the devil, just hear me out). Since i was on the north side of town i hit up the one in Clintonville, one that i had never been to before.
As i sit down to eat, to my right I see a table of 3 younger boys sitting together. They were probably about 13-14 years old.
At a table behind them was a mother with her teenage son.
To my immediate left was a grandmother sitting with her grandson.
On the patio outside was a father sitting with his two sons.

Greenhouse Tour Videoblog #1
Fort Worth Texas Recap
Last night, there were not many people at the show, but by far it was the most memorable night of the tour…
We sold a good amount of merch despite the small turn out. Which is good because i dont think the show itself made any money thru the door.
The bartendress liked me, and proceeded to buy me shots all night long. I think i got up to 9-10 but she told me it was only 6-7. I dont know who to believe as she admitted she was previously an alcoholic who could do 20 shots of henny a night. she also admitted having fucked up her liver and her doctor told her she couldnt drink, but she did anyways.
Weds March 31st – Blueprint, Illogic, & Rare Groove in Palm Springs, CA
This show was added last minute, with just over a week to promote it, so please please please help us spread the word. We’ve never been to Palm Springs before but i think this one will be fun as hell. If you’re in the area come celebrate Spring Break with Weightless.
Word!
