Pharoahe Monch to headline Splore 08
Cheers to SilverWHK for the heads up, it seems the rumours are true Pharoahe Monch will be playing at Splore next year, 8-10 February. The idea of camping out with a bunch of hippies for three days has never appealed to me so I’m quietly hoping that Monch does a show on the side in Auckland.
I’ve heard from a reasonably well-informed source that Monch will be bringing his entire band with him too!

Whilst working on the site I watched and interview with Paul Rosenberg and Monch. I have to say that he seems like a really really cool guy.
I’ll be there. Tie-die t-shirt, dreads, b.o, sandals and all.

Cool, I like Rosenberg’s interviews. Hopefully we can drop that new “Desire” music video soon… eh Andy?

Rosenberg is the man. I just did a big speil about him on my blog today. He totally acts like I would act in an interview with my own heroes.

[...] We already know that Monch is coming to New Zealand, but with that amount of hip hop cats being in such close vicinity to NZ I’m hoping that we get to see a few more. While I’m being a rumour-monger, a little birdy told me Kanye West and Common are gonna come here in February… oh yeah, and I heard rumours of Dilated Peoples in January too. More on that when I can dig up some more info, call me David Hartnell. [...]
