That's right...free...for those that dont know, NYC CityParks Foundation puts together free shows every summer at various NYC parks around the five boroughs...I go to as many as I can every year cause the artists performing are the bomb diggity...some of the best shows ive been to have been these free park ones....for example, last year, Lovebug Starski and Biz Markie were on the bill....normally, that would be dope enough...but a whole slew of people came out and performed like Grandmaster Caz, Mele Mel, T-Ski Valley, Doug E Fresh, Crash Crew, Mike from Fearless Four, etc...DOPE
So here's the schedule for this year...be sure to come out and support if you can (via http://grandgood.com/2008/05/13/nyc-cit ... announced/)
