Don’t be mistaken, the date says Sunday September 13th, 2009! The Greek Theatre (Los Angeles) presents Old School Jams Live, a concert featuring legendary hip-hop and R&B stars who pioneered this urban culture you’re living. Lisa Lisa, Ready for the World, Klymaxx, Soul Sonic Force, Kurtis Blow, Peanut Butter Wolf and Egyptian Lover are all scheduled to perform.
Young goons, this is a great opportunity to take your “rich uncle” to a show he’ll love and it may pay dividends later, trust me! To the disengaged parents out there, take this as an opportunity to show your relevance to a young generation your trying oh so hard to figure out. What better way to bridge the generation gap than bickering with your mom or dad on who gets to wear the dookie gold chain or Cazal frames for the night. If you can get pops to wear a pair of Super Skinnies be sure to send us a picture =)
Alongside the classic styled flyer comes a retro promo video:
Tickets: $35.00 ( Ticketmaster )
