HW, Jesse Dangerously, Shane Hall, Fortified Phonetx, Proseed, Stillborn Identity

 3-12-11 at Garfield Artworks. Please note HW was so modest he apologized for such a vain flier(while everyone else just complained about such an unreadable flier), then proceeded to kill it after showing up fashionably late(due to traffic not being a "rock star")to the show. However Jesse Dangerously showed no such modesty seeing as he had no qualms with taking his clothes off during his set, dead give away that he was Canadian. Shane Hall was the last of the touring acts to play leaving the crowd pleasantly pleased with his ability to rap as well as play guitar and sing. It was later revealed that Shane Hall is a long time affiliate of Strange Famous Records, and I was able to dig up a pretty flatter thread about his release, Basic Draining.
HW

Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Youngstown. "Piffalotown"


Wednesday March 2nd was the cristening of a new Pittsburgh venue with Dos Noun, who you thought was done rapping but has been killing it undercover for nearly half a decade since his retirement, MC Homeless who recently dropped his album 27 that you can buy on itunes or stream part of it on his myspace and still bumps jams from his first full length Trapped Under An Ohio Sky, Plots whose ep So Social you can download for free, and Stillborn Identity who also has an ep you can download for free called Less is More.
Thursday March 3rd at The Vault in Buffalo, Ny.  MC Homeless, Stillborn Identity, Frigid Giant splitting a set with Mic Mechannic of Narror Minded Youth, MilkSoda, and Zev spitting over a live improv band.
While waiting for his birthday show, Homeless anticipated his death around each corner eager not to join the 27 club, but lo and behold his 28th birthday was celebrated with great success in Youngstown, Oh Saturday March 5th thanks to some recent press he received in the local Youngstown paper among other things.
