Rock The Bells was pretty damn intense. I am sun burnt. The lines gettin' in were hellish...and the line to the ferry back to the motherland (rotten as it is - NYC) was even more punishing on the senses.
I gotta say, outdoor music fests just ain't really my thing anymore...but this one was a good one to go out on because of the handful of really dope performances. It actually sorta felt like a Rocksteady Anniversary up at Gaelic Park...with the amount of heads, dirt/grass/dust, sun damage, and silly Hip Hop antics you came across...plus Tony Toca was KILLIN' the tables (as usual)...just in a "V.I.P. tent" this time.

Performance Highlights:
Rakim was amazing.
Tribe was amazing (pulling out Large Pro and Neek The Exotic...and then Busta..very nice add).
Wu was fucking crazy.
Seriously...I've seen Wu as a unit once already...years ago...and both Ghost and Rae on separate occasions...but this recent performance was in-fucking-sane. Every song from Enter The 36... plus favorites like "Criminology" and "4th Chamber". Yes.
Shouts to my PTP RTB crew: Wifey Cat, Note D, Big June, Rob Lo...as well as the duo of Wry-Lo and Spot-Lo, plus the kid Peter Baker...and my main millz from the Nuyo and Nightrain days, Apex. More shouts to everyone who copped a Killa Shirt (even saw a FUGAZI ass "Killa Tape" shirt roaming around...had a picture of three cassette tapes....c'mon b)...
So I get online the next morning to be greeted by that!
Stock is almost out...
That's all for now.
