Good luck DJ Anubus!

For those of you who don't know Anubus, hes one of the most underrated and talented DJ's to ever grace Vermont. He helped build the Lotus DJ dream team and sadly, he'll be leaving June 1st. He's off to the west coast (California) to seek more adventures and take on new challenges. But on a good note, you can stay up to date with all the dope mixes and production by Anubus, just visit his WEBSITE and get hooked on the newsletter. And before he leaves, our pal J2 is throwing a going away BBQ bash June 1st at Oakledge Park Burlington-with music by, you guessed it, DJ Anubus! So make sure not to miss out on free food, good music, volley ball and a bikini car wash?... See you there ;)

Tuesday May 20th 2008 Bell Center Montreal

When 2001: A Space Odyssey came out, it was famously advertised as ''the ultimate trip.'' For his headlining chunk of the Glow in the Dark Tour, Kanye West also takes fans on a galactic voyage, folding his hits into a wacked-out space opera that's the ultimate ego trip. Normally, that'd be an insult, but with West, who's made an art form out of dramatizing both humility and hubris, it's mission accomplished.
