So there it was, on Friday January 9th at the Coupole in Biel. The DopePose Possee (http://www.dopepose.com) invited to an OldSchoolish event promoting the purpose of its existance and I was hired as the presenter. About half a dozen of DJ’s tag teamed for 30-minute-sets ranging from Boom Rap to Forgotten Treasures. About half the audience was younger than most of the tracks played and the other half was formed by more or less well-known B-Girls and B-Boys that gave in to their will to dance and nostalgic Rap addicts wanting to reminiss about the good old times. The legendary LSD Crew from Germany (Pioneers of HipHop in Germany, namely MC’s KoLute & Future Rock and DJ’s Defcon and Rick SKi) performed their 1991 Album “Watch Out for the Third Rail” and gave the mostly young crowd a historical lesson in where it all started and how it was non-materialistic and non-violent.. then! It went good by the time some individuals threw lighters on stage and finally when the concert ended an empty glass bottle that shattered against the DJ’s podium and could well have hit someone, but fortunately it didn’t.
Nevertheless the party had to go on and the motherf–ker wasn’t found. Still the problem of having massive glass bottles in a club given to (too) young people that tend to drink (smoke etc,) too much must be kept on the table and solved soon! Before someone incurs reallyhard injuries!
Still I give a great shoutout to Rosy One and her team for this cultural party and hope to see such an event at least once a year come to Bienne City.
PS: Don’t take yourself too serious people.. the world isn’t yours alone! Start posing!
