Re: SNWMF 2016 Welcomes Don Carlos - 7 months ago
I was at that SF State show with 3 homies that drove up from SC, we must have made up about 1/2 the crowd. Great show my friends still talk about and Carlton Livingston had come out earlier that day in the quad and performed a free show! Don every time . Probably one of my first times seeing Don.

I couldn't dive into reading this whole thread but my 2 cents is Matisyahu and his music is really lame and didn't he refuse to perform before a woman , Dezarie at the Long Beach Bob fest because of her sex and his interpretation of religion?by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2016

Quotetahoearmada one point is very obvious in this thread: Konshens and Busy Signal are the most desired and since Busy wont be playing in the states anytime soon i think that its obvious that Konshens should be on the lineup sooner than later and regarding his older material being "more conscious" thats just not true... dude has been very diverse from day 1 As for JA: the young artiby SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2016

Quotedubgroove You made your point. Give it a rest. And so far as "people that have been around before I was listening or even born." Nuff said. You revisited and reiterated and I restated. Yes giving respect to those older than I, what a concept. So quoting that for emphasis does nah make me a whippersnapper. Can a 60 year old human respect their elders ?

Re: 1st Annual Bay Area Reggae Fest July 17-19 2015 - 1 year ago
Pretty much ....no USVI acts on this show either , word must have spread you have to hustle your own hard tickets to get paid to perform. This is an actual formula these scheisters are using, they would promote Beenie, Capelton, Or Sizzla as headliner at the previous inconflation and the artist would have to come out to dispute it and say they won't be there so their fans weren't disappointed.by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2016

I wonder what happened to Bugle and Dexta Daps and if they made the flight after sumfest. Website says " no refunds will be given regardless of circumstances." Glad I opted to sit in traffic and roll home at 5 rather than go get caught up in that shite.by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2016

Re: Chris Rene inna roots reggae style! Interview and premiere of his newest tune - 1 year ago
Quotedubgroove Great tune. I'm not surprised by the lack of interest on this board. Nobody named Marley here... I liked our tune with Chris, Rankin Scroo, and vince Black with Super Tough 10 years ago (Worl O Luv). I'm preferring my outlook , as I already shared I thought it was short sighted and kind of from left field for you to say that no one on this message board is interested in reasoningby SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2016

Been listening and watching the 2B1 CD/DVD set Live In San Francisco at Maritime Hall from 2000. Wow those were different times. Lots of old Capleton classics and full verses. Sizzla and Gladiators with Mykal Rose opening were great shows at Maritime in that same time period. Any 1 have Audio of these or know if they made discs of those shows?by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2016

Re: Chris Rene inna roots reggae style! Interview and premiere of his newest tune - 1 year ago
It can be hard to escape being pigeonholed in the entertainment or other business. I don't know anything about Chris or J. Durbin except they grew up in Santa Cruz , were on singing contest shows. My previous comment was in response to the " lack of interest because he's not a Marley" . I think That's silly and a put down to the wealth of musical knowledge the SN boardies have.

Re: Chris Rene inna roots reggae style! Interview and premiere of his newest tune - 1 year ago
There is a lack of interest in general IN this phorum. The people that are around don't seem overly interested in discussing Marley over anyone else. Maybe a James Durbin tune woulda rocked the board, I don't think so. There's no hype and this format is not a very successfull way to hype something. Plenty of good music never reaches the masses for various reasons.by SCRoots - SNWMF Phorum 2016
