The passed week has been a low involvement one when it comes to OOTB. The agenda was flooded with events and I must say it has been one hell of a week with little sleep, lots of running around,  great laughs, but also some disappointments.

Tuesday was Mos Def day, with him showing up in the Vooruit. I had been anticipating his show for a while now and man was I excited to see/hear him do his thing. Lefto warmed up the crowd, together with half a dozen other local acts, and you could feel that there was electricity in the air among a very divers crowd. Great to see Mo & Grazz among them by the way. What a duo! Needless to say, Mos was on a roll and it was way more different then I had expected.

Still do not know what the hell Democrazy was thinking with their extended warm-up though, as they exhausted a huge part of the crowd with their waiting (read lets ca$h some money) game. By the time Mos started I was shattered I must admit.

Yesterday marked the avant-première for Philips’ Parallel Lines. Workrelated event, but pleasant none the less On the agenda, 5 movie shorts which drew our attention as soon as we had seen the trailer.

The project was set up together with the Ridley Scott Association, who selected 5 directors who take part. All of them were asked to make a short film with the only input being a brief which contained 6 scripts lines. The end results could not have been more diverse. So defintely have a look.

On another note we had some great news concerning #youngscum BE. Its starting to get shape and the location will be unveiled somewhere next week I recon. Mark April the 22nd in your agenda and make sure you are in Ghent that evening. Out.
