In the last week I have seen Devin the Dude, Method Man and Redman, Snoop Dogg, and Ghostface Killah. If you don't know, these are all very successful hip-hop artists. The first three were all in a one night show at The Vogue. Ghost came to The Bluebird in Bloomington on Sunday night. If you do not know, Method Man and Ghostface Killah are veteran members of the incredibly successful and celebrated hip hop group, Wu Tang Clan. I am not twenty one but one of my good friend's dad owns The Vogue and we got in for free. My friend and I who went to Bloomington to see Ghostface couldn't get into the club since it was twenty one and up. So we sulked and cursed the guy who wouldn't let us in. We walked around the club to the back to see if we could listen to the show at all. At the back door there were a couple guys standing around and they told us they knew how to get on the roof and had done it before. So we followed them and climbed the pipes over the barbed wire to the roof where we had a damn good view of the stage from a vent. To me and my friend seeing Ghostface was like seeing Chuck Berry or Bo Diddley back in the day. I probably listen to his music every day. What made the trip so damn good was the fact that we saw it for free and even got to say what up to Ghost before he got on the tour bus, and he played all the classics. It was certainly worth the trip even though we got back home at two in the morning and I had class at ten thirty the next day.
