Slum Village or what remains of them will be at the New Parish in Oakland. The show is on Friday, July 22nd. Tickets are $23.09 total and you can get them here. I saw Elzhi awhile back when he came through with Black Milk, he puts on a good show, really clear on the mic, which unfortunately can not be expected from all hip hop artists.
Foreign Exchange will be at The New Parish on Tuesday, July 26th. Tickets are $28.37 total and you can get them here. I like Little Brother (when I say Little Brother I mean Phonte, Pooh, AND 9th, LB minus 9th is not the same) better than Foreign Exchange. I am not as into the R&B style they have going on. A little too much crooning, not enough rapping for my taste.
Thurston Moore and Kurt Vile give you options on Tuesday, July 26th. Hip hop or Indie? Moore and Vile will be at The Great American Music Hall. Tickets are $26, available here.
The Cool Kids are also having a show at The New Parish on Thursday, July 28th. Tickets range from $20-25. Get them here. I saw these guys when they were part of the openers for Q-Tip a couple years back. Definitely worth checking out. They got that bass that will knock a filling loose. Love their throwback style.
August
Adele will be coming back to The Greek theater to make up for her previously canceled show. She arrives on Sunday, August 14th. Tickets are $45 for general admission, $65 for reserved seating...I don't think I have been to a concert at The Greek that was anything but general admission. Tickets are still available here.
Reggie Watts who is both a comedian and singer will be at the Independent in San Francisco on Wednesday, August 17th. Tickets are $20, get them here. We saw him as the opener for Conan O'Brien when he came through on his, "Banned From TV" tour. He also made a video appearance during Donald Glover's opening set at the Childish Gambino show. Funny guy with funny friends.
Bilal, that crazy ass dude from Detroit will be at The New Parish on Monday, August 29th. Tickets are $20-25 and can be found here. Whenever I hear his name I just think of that Black Milk line, "So Detroit like I'm Bilal."
September
Fleet Foxes are playing the Greek theater in Berkeley on Saturday September 10th. Tickets are $39.50 plus service charges and can be found here.
Bon Iver will be at the Greek as well on Thursday, September 22nd. Tickets are $39.50 plus service charges, grab them here.
TV On The Radio will be at the Fox theater in Oakland. I like the Fox a lot more than the Greek. Much more intimate, the Greek is awesome, it's just so big. Anyway, they will be here on Tuesday, September 27th. $35 plus charges. Get yo tickets here.
Braids who I am a big fan of will be at The Bottom of The Hill in San Francisco. Their show is on Tuesday, September 27th, the same night as the TV On The Radio show. Tickets are $10 and you can get them here.
