Super Mash Brothers- 12/6 at the Palace

On Friday Night December 6th, the Super Mash Brothers will be playing a concert at the Palace. This is event is sponsored by WeFunk and CAB Music. Similar to Girl Talk, the Super Mash Bros are known for their mash-ups of all types of popular music. Great for a late night dance party! The show is called for 11, so it is safe to say they won't go on until midnight.

I would suggest getting there closer to eleven, as over 700 people are expected at a venue that barely holds 300. Godspeed to all those who attend. Pregame appropriately.

Who's Bad- Michael Jackson Tribute Band

On Wednesday November 18th, Who's Bad, a Michael Jackson tribute band will be playing a concert at the Hall of Presidents.



The event is bought to you by The Blue Diamond Society, The Colgate Jewish Union and Broad Street Records. BSR's own Jango Radley and CRRABS will start the event off at 845PM, followed by Who's Bad at 10PM.

Those who attended Bandfest on Saturday November 7th witnessed stellar performances by each of these two up and coming crews. CRRABS did an array of covers ranging from Dispatch to Rage Against the Machine, delighting the crowd throughout their 30-minute set. Jango Radley played for the first time with their full band including lead singer Liz Barnett, adding some more soul to the already soulful group. At one point, they broke out into a jam, leading into a funky cover of "Party in the USA." Other highlights were "Supernatural Creatures," a Dan Lasker original, and their reggae cover of "Remix to Ignition."

*For the few people who were their from the beginning, these lucky ones had the privilege of seeing the Sophomore hip hop artist Velle Phyre. Rapping over familiar beats like "Run This Town" and "NY State of Mind," VP had the crowd rocking out to a very impressive hip hop performance. His flow and wit were proven in what seemed to be one of his most resonating tracks. Explaining to his Chicago peers who have never heard of Colgate, Velle rips a chorus of, "Fuck you bitch, I go to Colgate." His unique lyrics and sick timing certainly impressed this BSR correspondent.
