Elephant man... loses his cool after almost losing his pant

nospam@example.com (columbuscarib) — Thu, 22 May 2008 09:38:32 -0700

Usually Elephant man can claim "MAD SICK HEAD NO GOOD " (in other word... I can be crazy) but this past week in Columbus, Ohio , Elephant man couldn't find a way out of what proved to be an embarrassing situation all the way around at the Concert at Alrosa Villa. Elephant man lost his cool , after a female fan... grabbed at the "anaconda" and almost left Elephant man in some ~~pretty tight briefs~~, some sort of blue briefs If we might say so . Aparently the pants had already started to rip and it just got worst with all the crotch grabbin and "jiggy jiggy". (they just don't make fabric the way they used to it would appear... now I understand when Bounty Killa lamented " Mi cyan believe say tight pant come in again )

In truth it would be hard pressed for any one to perform in his brief and half a' tight pants with black spike tipped boots .. to "Bad man a bad man". Elephant man was understandable distraught. To his credit Elephant man usually delivers one of the most energetic and fun filled shows in the Music Business. ... To be honest as well he was in the midst of delivering a very high energy show before the wardrobe mishap.

Sites like Yardflex wasted no time in posting the pictures.

Roots High Power with Peter Funk (aka Fiyah Crackah) , Willie G, Jah Cody, Mikey Million and Zero .. turn the place into a high power dancehall session within a few minutes. The party continued in the after party all the way back till near morning.

Exclusive Columbus Caribbean Voice and Roots High Power concert clips and the melt down are available on youtube.

A Reggae Jackpot for Central Ohio !

nospam@example.com (columbuscarib) — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 18:42:45 -0700

Columbus Ohio reggae fans are as fortunate as any reggae fans anywhere . In Columbus, this year alone , reggae fans were treated to at least one major concert a month. The year started off with I Wayne and Wayne Wonder, then the Meditations, followed by the "Cool Ruler" Gregory Issacs himself backed by up and coming sensation Rootz Underground. Gregory Issacs performed on what , had to be the worst day of winter weather in Columbus in more than two seasons , to a more than respectable sized crowd of fans.

It is evident that resurgence in reggae has only gotten started... this upcoming month of April is no different. Already there is slated to be at least 5 major performances in mid and southern Ohio alone .

The month will start off with Everton Blender on the 4th, then both Sister Carol and Junior Reid on the 5th and Luciano twice botht he 25th and 26th. [See event calendar or sign up for the newsletter ]

While reggae has taken center stage it is obvious that the demand will increase for other genre's by the fans. Calyso , Soca, . Concerts as far away as Cleveland see Columbus regulars and vice versa. Cincinnati reggae and reggae/dancehall fans think nothing of the 1.5 hour drive to take in the vibes in Columbus.

The spring has just gotten started and I am sure there will be a whole lot more to come in summer... There is even buzz about bringing some top ranked soca/calyspo acts along with more latin caribbean flavors, after all the caribbean is more than just reggae.

Want to know more about these artists ? Check out these classics:

Everton Blender's Lift up Your Head, Wayne Wonder's Foreva, I Wayne's, Book of Life Sister Carol's, Gimme Mi Freedom Junior Reid's, One Blood Luciano's Messenger
