DRE DAY 2010
Posted by: | Comments
LIKE WE ALWAYS DO ABOUT THIS TIME…..
Tonight is the Chicago DRE DAY celebration and I could not be more excited. This is a party that was started by my homie Mike the 2600 King and his amazingly talented design crew at Burlesque of North America. In addition to Chicago and the Dre Day founding city of Minneapolis, our homie Nick Hook is holding down the party in NYC. This year there are also parties in Winnipeg, Saksatoon, Austin, Philadelphia, Portland, & Tampa.
This year’s Chicago DRE DAY will smash our 2009 party and of course will incorporate DRE DAY favories like the Chronic album cover photo booth, the $20 sack pyramid game, free 40 ozs, and much more. Peep below for details.

The Marketing & Event Production firm Ground Lift Media and the Minnesota-based design collective Burlesque of North America have joined forces to present the 2010 installment of DRE DAY: A Celebration of the Life and Music of Dr. Dre. February is quickly approaching, and this will be our eighth year celebrating Andre Young and his creative contributions to the world of Hip-Hop.
It’s time to strap on your Compton hats and locs and celebrate the music and legacy of one of the greatest Hip-Hop artists of all time, the icon responsible for introducing the world to acts as diverse as N.W.A., Snoop Dogg, The D.O.C., Eminem, J.J. Fad, 50 Cent, Arabian Prince, and so many more. It’s Dre Day 2010 and everybody’s celebratin’!
This year we’re excited to present performances by Chicago’s own Psalm One, as well local Soul/Funk band The Jordan Years as they recreate classic Dr. Dre songs and the original tunes Dre sampled. DJ sets by The Comeups (Intel, Maker, Pickel), TREW, Big Once, & Kool Hersh. Live art by Jose Garibaldi & Mike Bianco. Photobooth by Camerainmyhand.com, Video by Chicago Music Project.
The Mastodon Burger
Posted by: | Comments
Kuma’s Corner in Chicago has consistently been rated as having the best burgers in the city. I have lived blocks away from this place for over a year now and have never made it in due to the average wait time of 2 hours to even sit down (no reservations, carry out, etc.). Every burger on the menu is named after a hard rock / metal band, which they also play in the bar / restaurant. If you are ever in Chicago and got some time to kill, check the place out: kumascorner.com
After a glance over of the menu, I was torn between getting the Iron Maiden and the Mastodon. But then once ‘Iron Tusk‘ came on I knew what the call was. A charred 10 oz. burger with BBQ Sauce, Cheddar, Thick Cut Bacon, & Frizzled Onions. GAME OVER.
