One of the coolest venues in the city is closing this year. The knitting factory was the place that I first saw Theophilus London and Mickey Factz perform live while Ashanti did her show upstairs the same night. It was one of the best experiences that I have had in a long time (live performance wise). The setting is so intimate and hip that it just takes you back to a time when hip hop was underground. I am sad to report that it will be closing at the end of this year. However they are going out with a bang! The last show will be on December 19th and will feature Rakim, Black Thought, Keith Murray, Just Ice and Sasha Jenkins. This is the one show that you do not want to miss. By that time Theophilus London will be back from London and Mickey Factz will be back from LA, Lethal Inspiration will be in attendance, Coolness P and myself will be there plus the rest of the Nation of Cool family, etc. I guarantee a packed house, this is our last chance to enjoy the raw essence and amazing feeling that you get when you see a show at the knitting factory.
See you there.
