One night in particular stands out to me and might just be all the motivation I need to keep my attendance streak going.

I’m in Vegas. I’m hungover. Dilated Peoples rocked the fucking house. They are the real deal in hip hop. True B-boys forever. Evidence, Rakaa and Babu know how to do live hip hop and work the crowd. Check out our pictures and make sure you check out these amazing venues in Downtown Vegas like the Fremont Country Club and Backstage Bar and Billiards. They ALWAYS have great music here.
