A Benefit For Haiti

As all of you know by now the people of Haiti need your help and prayers. The aftermath of one of the biggest tragedies of our lifetime has left most of their country in pieces and most people are without water, food, or shelter!!!...It is in times like this that we all need to think about what we have and be thoughtful of those who are in need and not so fortunate as US!

Rhymesayers Entertainment/Minneapolis,MN has come together to host a benefit for Haiti concert on February 9th, 2010 @ First Avenue in Minneapolis....There is a $20 entree fee and all of the proceeds will go to organizations that already have been doing all that they can to help out as many victims of the earthquake as possible...

What more could you ask for, you will be donating to help those who desperately need it and seeing some of the best at what they do come together for a concert not to benefit themselves, but those who are in NEED.

So if you happen to be in Minnesota or are from here I suggest you cop your tickets now and help to better the lives of those in HAITI!!!

I know I will....hope to see some of you there

Trouble for Agent O

Gilbert Arenas is in a bit of trouble after the alleged gun stunt in the wizards locker room. He most likely will not be back in the NBA anytime soon and probably never with the Washington Wizards again. The last basketball game that I went to was my Minnesota Timberwolves Vs. Washington Wizards so that was my last chance to see Agent 0 do his thing and of course he did, but the wolves still got the W!...No one ever wishes these sort of troubles onto someone or at least I don't, so hopefully Arenas will get his act together, do what hes gotta do and come back to the NBA better than ever.....
To read more about what exactly is going on: Divorce could prove tough for Arenas, Wizards...

Diggin' for vinyl...

Yesterday my brother & I visited a local music shop in Little Canada, MN "Rice St. Music & Memorabilia"


Here are a couple that we walked out with...some good classic records

These 2 photos are from a Half Price Books Store, where my brother & I were looking through some slim pickings of vinyl....


Anyone else into digging through the crates/vinyl collecting?

Where do you go-whats your spot called, What kind of vinyls do you go for?

It's been a couple of years now that my brother & I have been into collecting vinyl. Probably ever since my bro got some tables and an MPC 1000. We dig more for jazz,blues and funk records right now, we've got plenty of rock already....We still really don't know much about what record companies to look for or what years to buy, but we have a general idea of what were looking for to chop up and make some of them funky beats with....

If you have any suggestions as to what to look for or what you like to do when looking through vinyl's leave me a comment....

Until next dig session,
Schezzzirrr!

Final score, We Won! A T-Wolves win is hard to come by these days...

Jonny Flynn Free Throw


Good ol Flip Saunders, he still doesn't sit much during the game, always up around the scorers table...Chill out FLIP!

Big Al Jefferson
First T-Wolves game of the season for me, I know they aren't doing so hot, but I got free tickets. It was a slow low scoring game, so I got a bunch of photos and some video...I was lucky to see a win though which these days is hard to come by for the Wolves. They will be lucky to get 15 wins this season. It was still a fun event and my pops and I had a fun time downtown and all....

I'm hopeful that within the next couple of years with the young talent of Al Jefferson, Kevin Love, Jonny Flynn & Wayne Ellington who should be out on the court more, and a couple good draft picks that the Timberwolves will be able to at least compete within their division....(Wishful thinking I Know)

Check out the photos and video, let me know what your thoughts on the Wolves are?....
