A Great Day in Houston - DJ Screwfest 2006!
Before we get into my review of and photos from DJ Screwfest I need to remind you that this Thursday July 27th is our HoustonSoReal LIVE Event with BBC 1xtra. DJ Semtex will be in town all week and it is going down. If you have mot RSVP'd yet, you need to do so now. Send your name(s) to BBCHoustonEvent@gmail.com and you will be in.
And to all who have emailed so far, I will be sending out confirmations tonight. Print 'em out and bring 'em to the door!
Anyway, see you Thursday. Below please find over 70 photos from yesterdays First Annual DJ Screw Fest. Believe me when I say it was off the chain. If you can't see it in the photos then you ain't looking. Peace to everyone involved and I hope to see it again next year.
Only complaint is that well, if I knew that Devin and Bun B were not even in town, I am quite sure the promoters did as well. I didn't hear too many shouts of Devin the Dude coming up later, but I sure did hear "THIS WILL BE THE FIRST TIME UGK IS ON STAGE TOGETHER IN OVER 4 YEARS!" On the radio all the way there, and being hollered from the stage. I know that "no shows" are normal in the rap world, but that bullshit has got to stop.
Anyway, enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed the event! (Which inceidentally was Elena's first concert. She can tell all her friends her first real concert was SLIM THUGGA MUTHAFUCKA!)

Ankaman's booth at the show. Dude has been on the grind for years and is one of th ebest lyricists in the city. I remember when he was called T-Wreckz and was down with the Psycho Ward circa 1991 and shit. "Kick 'Em in the Head" being his big hit back in the day.

Trae and Robert
And my good folks from What it Dew Magazine
All in all it was a great day that faced, but overcame some obstacles and I'ma assume everyone had a great time. I was fucking psyched in the end. What a wonderful, wonderful event. I'm ready for next years event. Though I mean, you really don't HAVE to have it around Screw's birthday, I mean, I'm thinking October would be good. There was a time this day where I thought I was gonna fall out from the heat. Man, for real. I don't generally hang in parking lots on 95 degree days. Wow. But it was worth every ounce of sweat. Thanks for the free beers and the great vibes. If you missed out, I'm sorry for you.
