Slick Rick at the State

18 Jul

Posted by The One in the Shit to Do department.

Let me start out by saying that State Media fucking sucks at promoting shows. Seriously, what the hell? I’m just now finding out about Slick Rick playing the State tomorrow and the shit isn’t even listed on their site? People, come on, try a little harder.

Fortunately, though, the great news that Rick the Ruler will be in the ‘burg almost makes me forget the suckitude. That’s right, Slick Motherfucking Rick, aka Ricky D, aka Rick the Ruler. Tickets are $20 ahead of time (although your guess is as good as mine where you buy them) and $25 at the door.

Splog Slick Rick Fun Facts:

The eye patch is actually functional! He’s blind in that shit.
He was recently pardoned of attempted murder charges that have been haunting him since 1990.
Attempting to deport his ass (related to the 1990 charges), INS officials snagged him in the middle of a live performance on a Florida cruise ship.

For State theatre shows look at the State website http://www.statetheatreconcerts.com/

State Media only normally covers No Clubs and affiliated shows.

Wow, having two sites isn’t even remotely confusing.

The State Theatre only advertises one web site, you’ll notice that, at Statemedia.com ,other venues and shows are listed, like the Ford Amphitheater, I’m pretty sure if I wanted a full listing of the events there I wouldn’t rely on the statemedia site.
