Mike and Ike at The Parish, August 1, Opening for Devin The Dude

Austin 360’s “A-list” has published some pictures from last Friday’s Devin the dude show. The set includes some pictures from Mike and Ike’s set as well as from some of the other artists. Go over to the A-List website and check them out. If anyone else has any other pictures, feel free to link them up in the comments section. Peace

Texas hip-hop icon, Devin The Dude, will be bringing his eccentric brand of hip-hop to the 512 on August 1. Outside of his longtime Rap-a-lot partnerships Devin has also worked with everyone from De La Soul to Dr. Dre and is definitely one in a million in terms of showmanship and dedication to his craft. Opening will be Austin natives Gerald G, Southbound and BigBadMedium.com comrades, Mike and Ike. Also opening will be Fat Tony, Giovanni, COD and Kriminals. Quite a varied display of Texas hip-hop, which should go over well with Devin’s varied fan base.

Dj and distinguised gentleman Scuba Gooding Jr. of Prhymates posted up some pics by photographer Francisco H Cortés from Brownout’s Super Soul Shakdown show in San Antonio. Scuba has been doing so much for the scene in San Antonio and if there ever was a good town for Brownout’s brand of latin funk, San Antonio is it. And if you’re one of the unlucky few who don’t know Brownout yet, you need to play some catch up. Check em out.

The lineup for the 2008 Austin City Limits Festival has finally been announced! This years lineup looks pretty solid, and I know that in years past they’ve announced even more bands leading up to the festival. The festival will be held in Zilker Park, September 26-28 in Austin, Texas and I’ll be down there year with a Shiner in hand. The lineup includes a lot of established acts along with some acts that have been gaining popularity in Indie circles in the past year or two. Check out some songs from some of the artists that will be performing this year.
