Rap collective brings independent spirit and hip hop stylings to the left coast
Crystal Castles (with Rusko, Sinden and Destructo) hits the East Coast
2 tickets for the taking.
Combining two styles of music that share an entireably danceable beat, Ben Darwish and the folks of Commotion kept the majority of the audience in motion from start to finish, a feat that has rarely happened at any tractor show I’ve ever attended.

The group has enough talent and material to headline a show and command a larger venue. If Tanya Morgan keeps delivering the same level of energy, that’s where they’ll be the next time they appear in Portland.

Love these photos and review. So, these DJ sets are at 7:30? I don’t really get it. And are these gonna continue once the Whitney moves? And most importantly, where can I attend an “hour-long clinic on shaking ass?”
