The Mo’jor Leauge Party

Posted on May 2, 2012 by Biljana| Leave a comment

Friday, May 4th. 8:00pm @ The Casbah – $ 10 adv – $12 at the door

Baseball, sunshine, macho mustaches, tall cans, and rock music – what a beautiful combination.

The Reason have released a fantastic new baseball themed video which stars some familiar Hamilton faces and bars, and John Axford of the Milwaukee Brewers.
In honour of this video and everything that was great about ’70s baseball, The Reason are throwing one hell of a party  at The Casbah this Friday.  Playing along side The Reason are: Saint Alvia, Organ Thieves, and The Great Lake Survival.

If you are planning to attend this show it is encouraged that you dress like a “1970s Baseball badass”. If you aren’t planning to attend the show you should still watch this video because it is fantastic.

Thursday, May 3rd. 9:30pm @ The Casbah – $5

It is no secret that Steel Gold is consistently the best monthly evening of music in town.  The hip hop community is alive and well every first Thursday of the month.  Seeing fellow Hamiltonian’s get up on the stage and shine with original rhymes is an inspiring thing of beauty.

Steel Gold returns this Thursday with a night of breakdancing. Featured crews are:  Hamilton’s Progressive Movement, Kitchener’s Asterisk (soon to be featured on new Much Music show Live Dance Crew), Brampton’s B-Town Breakers, and Toronto’s Rodri Breaker.

Providing all of the beats will be Hamilton superstar DJs:  Realistic and J Fevrier. The will be hosted by Ill Hicks, and the cypher starts at 9:30pm. Bring your cardboard squares and your best bboy /girl stance and meet me at the Casbah this Thursday.
