On January 20, the night of President Obama's Inauguration, we played at the Hi-Dive in fremont with live band Vunt Foom and emcees Diztortion, I Adjust, and Ra Scion (of common market). To sum up, this show was fuckin rad. Usually when we open shows the venue isnt full because a lot of people just wanna see the opener, but due to (i'm assuming) the festive feel of the evening, the bar was packed for our set. We turned in our best show to date, and had a damn good time doing so. It was our first time opening for Vunt Foom, and they are something special. A 7 (or 8?) piece jazz/hip-hop band, they provided the perfect backing to up and coming Seattle emcees (and the homies) Diztortion and I adjust. Their set with Seattle legend Ra Scion was, and quote me, one of the freshest hip-hop sets i have ever seen. It was my second time opening for him and its a real privileged to open for an emcee who has been a favorite of mine since the first Common Market project came out. We hope to rock again soon with Vunt Foom, and hopefully come back to the hi-dive, which is a great spot for live music.
