Hi Steve, thanks for the most flattering review of Strong. We did have a
great time at the Croc over the last 18 months and we plan to have at least 18
more at the showbox, however the 23rd will be a one time Saturday celebration.
The night will return to its original wednesday format beginning December 4th.
Djs for Saturday the 23rd will be Masa, Eddie, and myself. We have a big show
planned for wednesday the 4th of December which will feature Nervous Records and
Yellow Productions recording artist Julius Papp. Julius has been resident
at legendary
productions down South such as Mushroom Jazz, Jazzid Up, and Souled Out.
He will be spinning a three hour set so try to check it out.
Also, keep your eyes peeled for a two cassette recording of Strongs
final hours
featuring dj donald glaude and myself, in record stores soon or available
at all future
strong gigs until we run out. (Ltd. to 100 sets) Thanks again, brian
