FRIDAY 29
Super legendary hip hop DJ and musician Grandmaster Flash is the father of innovation in DJing. His opus (of sorts) release The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on the Wheels of Steel– which showcased his spinning, mixing elements of Blondie’s Rapture, Michael Viner’s Incredible Bongo Band’s Apache, Queen’s Another One Bites the Dust, Chic’s Good Times, and his own Freedom, is still played in heavy rotation and considered the holy grail for how-to-destroy a couple of Technics. Check him out live tonight with DJ Rusty Lazer (Big Freedia) and Coolio (yes, that Coolio) performs.
Webster Hall, 125 East 11th St bet Third and Fourth Aves, NYC, 212-353-1600, 10pm, $25
