I want you to be able to hear every single word with no interruptions so the CD's will be available 2/6/09. Im working on a new link that will allow you to download the mixtape for free. So as soon as i get that a new link will be posted...

Chris Shields Live and Direct -- The Inauguration Recap

2009-01-21T00:40:00.000-06:00

Another great show at The Chicago Inauguration @ The Wild Hare is what i was told. I think i had the most fun at this show, which i really needed(I'm stressed out, but you cant tell). It was good to sit back and be a fan of Hip Hop watching CNC act a fool on stage, my dudes Project Fr3sh (who always go hard), and many more.

The best part of the evening was at the end of the show where Project Fresh, Ptoda, and myself spit a few bars for the crowd giving them a taste of a show on the 15th of February(a day after Valentine's Day? I'm definitely performing "I Love Em All" for the 1st time ever). I had a young lady film this Historic moment but it wont upload, Sorry. It was HOT too if you missed it.

All in in all it was a good evening even though the owner was trying to kick my peoples out after Shep spent hundreds at the bar and even threw a couple hundred in the air as can be seen in the video below. But after the smoke cleared we came back in and enjoyed the rest of the night. As always....
