Swollen Members + Big B & Klaw

Last night’s show at Urban Lounge was quite epic. Although we missed Common Market’s opening set, we heard it was amazing.

We arrived just in time to see Big B and our good friend, Klaw jump on stage. They killed it and we loved seeing Klaw spin, scratch, sing, dance and do his thing!

Swollen Members walked by us as they were stage-bound and we kinda got chills. All over. Their performance was nothing short of ridiculous. They gave props to Urban Lounge as this was the venue for their first Salt Lake show, ten years ago. They were impressed with the improvements in the sound and lights. They were also impressed with the crowd and the vibe goin’ off.

In the words of Mad Child, “There are those cities on your tour that you look forward to. For us, on this tour, those cities were Boulder (where the previous night’s show was) and Salt Lake.” Of course the crowd loved the compliment and went ape shit.

He later announced that it was Prevail’s Birthday and led the crowd in singing Happy Birthday.

One of the highlights of the night was Prev 1’s freestyle, which lasted no less than five minutes. It was absolutely jaw dropping. Needless to say, the energy in that room was incredible.

Their new album, “Armed To The Teeth” is dope and they’re coming off their best first week album sales in America since they formed. Buy it on iTunes, you’ll love it!

This was a sick show and a great night of catching up with friends. Big ups to S&S Presents for the talent they bring to their venue.

The Hangover Cure: 4.5 of 5

Without fail, I can guarantee a hangover for myself in any of the following instances:

1. Mixing Liquor. Not necessarily the typical, beer before liquor and vice versa things. More like have a beer, have a shot of whiskey, have a redbull and vodka, have a beer, have shot of jäger, and repeat.

2. Going to bed after the sky turns blue.

3. Sleeping for more than 7 hours. Otherwise known as all day. If it’s not 7 hours or less, the day might as well not even have happened.

When I do a combination of two, or God forbid the occasion where I get all three, there is little in the world that caters to my physical body’s disdain for the choices of the mental.

Enter The Hangover Cure, better known as THC. Upon recieving samples of this “magical” product, I of course took it upon myself to put it’s proposed cure, and even my traditiaonal drinking habits to the test.

At the end of the night, when it was time to get to bed (which turned out to be around 6:30 am), we broke out our THC samples, took about 100 pictures of us opening, pouring, mixing, and drinking the stuff. Then went to sleep.

I woke up the next morning (4:30pm) feeling a little hazy on the previous nights events. After piecing things together and looking through the pictures, we remembered our dose of THC. It was right then that we realized that we weren’t hung over. This stuff worked, and now we really wanted food. I’m happy to give a 4.5 out of 5 stars. Missing only a half star because my food came back to bite me in the ass, in a very hangover-like fashion. The flavor isn’t bad either. It was kind of fruity and if you were smart enough, you’d find a way to make a cocktail out of it, killing two birds with one stone. So a half star off for not working miracles, but 4.5 for helping me not miss another day of my life due to a dabilitating hangover.

My only suggestion is to go out and have a great time. If you try to give yourself a hangover to test the product, man I hope you get one. Fortunately for you, there is The Hangover Cure to watch your back.

Click any of the 50 million links to their site and pick some up. Bundled doses make each one cheaper than a beer at the bar.

Shake N’ Pop + JSJ’s Birthday

Thanks to everyone that came to Shake N’ Pop on October 2nd and helped us celebrate JSJ’s Birthday! It was an amazing night and a kickass dance party!

G Elect DJ buddies Tom Bennett and Hot Noise opened the night and got the crowd movin’ early. JSJ laid down a killer set that included a couple of unreleased original tracks, one of which he performed a live rap to. Hot Noise jumped on the decks again to close out the night and give the birthday boy a chance to mingle with the peeps.

JSJ and the G Elect crew arrived and departed the club in style thanks to Signature Transportation and their swanky limo service.

A big thanks to deWilde and That Guy Gil for shooting the night and providing some sweet photos. More Shake N’ Pop madness to come, we’ll keep you posted.
