Booster Shot: Red Hot Flames to appear at Radio City Music Hall with Machel

Soca people oye!!!!

Yuh listening? I know everybody done heard about Machel and dem BIG soca-ganza in Manhattan for 2009. Machel and de HD posse playing RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL! ( I hope he brings the Antz suits! I wonder how they'll go down in a major metropolitan fashion capital. Hmmm?) I realize the buzz around it hasn't exactly created seismic waves. After all, we all island people - it's no surprize that Boy Boy can draw a crowd.

In '07 and '08, they had the media all hyped up over Madison Square Garden WaMu theatre. It definitely was a first for soca. Kudos all around. But y'all, Radio City Music Hall is kind of a big deal! I figure the people who were more impressed with MSG, are big time Knicks fans or sumthin.

Yup....Machel, Patrice, Farmer Nappy, Umi Marcano, Zan....de whole HD family. The gig is called Machel Montano Live in Concert - Raw & Uncut. Ok, so moving right along. I know, it's not even news....cuz you already knew. Let's call it KNEWs! Ah, much better. Here's what's new though, Antigua's Red Hot Flames will be on the bill that night as well.

I didn't know that! Am I late? Well there you have it. Now the Antigua Posse up in the Bronx have a next BIG reason to flock into the city. A wild crew of heavy metal soca warriors will be riding their quads in Shaolin tempo right into the same venue that has hosted schtuff like the MTV Awards and Michael Jackson , behind their fearless leader Sir Oungku Wong!

Get ready for some funkin' soca NYC!!!

Love and soca,
