Quick Update: Mark Your Calendars.

It's that time again... shows, shows, shows. The weather should begin its turn any minute now (or at least in June, this being New England... but we're getting closer), and so we begin our attempts to get you (and ourselves) out of the caves, cribs, and cocoons and into the beams of the streetlamps and stagelights.

Here's the basic info, we'll give you the details as each individual date comes upon us (pause):

THURSDAY MARCH 6 // THE LIVING ROOM, PROVIDENCE RI
Janks & Sens of Conscious Insanity have long been supporters of PDP, coming to shows, rocking their PoorlyDrawn gear, and keeping the word out there. So when they asked us to jump on board their first bill at the Living Room, we were happy to do so as a way of saying thanks.

FRIDAY MARCH 14 // BISHOP'S LOUNGE, NORTHAMPTON MA
The Problemaddicts will be bringing PDP out to their hometown for some Massachusetts love, god willin'.

SATURDAY MARCH 15 // THE LIVING ROOM, PROVIDENCE RI
Here's one for the ages, or at least, the aged: Poorly Drawn People open for Boot Camp Clik (Buckshot, Sean Price, Smif N Wessum) along with Romen Rok, the 401 AllStars (Chachi, Meal Tix, Starrs & Murph) and Point Blank. Brought to you by Lifted Productions and BasementFlavor.com. You'll be hearing a lot more about this show from us very soon, beleedat.

FRIDAY MARCH 21 // COUSIN LARRY'S, DANBURY CT
D_Cyphernauts host a monthly hiphop event in Danbury, CT, and were kind enough to invite PDP down for the March installment.

SATURDAY MARCH 22 // DOX @ LOCAL 121, PROVIDENCE RI
Supadeejay Dox (yes! Dox of Poorly Drawn People!) puts down the old school and underground hiphop favorites you never knew you had to get you up and vibing. DJ Save1 comes along for the ride.

SATURDAY APRIL 5 // THE LIVING ROOM, PROVIDENCE RI
The first show we've thrown since last September. Sure, we've done some others, but this is the first time since we unleashed Nothing Stays Gold upon you that it will have the 'PDP Presents' endorsement across the top of the flyer. Come end the 7-month hiatus with us and we'll give you something special to take home with you... but more on that later. Also appearing: The Problemaddicts, and more to be announced. Stay tuned.

From the

"You Scratch Our Back,

We'll Take You Behind the Middle School

& Get You Pregnant" file:

We try not to ask you for too much without giving you something in return, so while you're marking those calendars feel free to download some music to mark 'em to, courtesy of our brethren over at Labeless Illtelligence!

The "Lads Sans Labels" (as they're called in Scotland) have a new, absolutely FREE project for your listening pleasure called Intox-I-Rox Solid: Stink Talk.

Intox-I-Rox is comprised of Labeless mastermind Cas Uno on the vocals, and sometimes-rapper, sometimes-producer Rock Solid on the beats. Stopping by to share their perspective on world events are Esh the Monolith, Ams Uno, and Dirty Ice of Busted Fro.

Take a listen and share with urrrbody you know. Here's the details from ChrisUno EndCrews himself:

"Rock on the beats, me on the rhymes.

Some special guests here and there.

Planned on releasing double CD w/ Rock's "JuanEPstein" release...Ish didn't work out w/ getting our hands on Rock's project, so we decided to toss this ish out there for free along w/ all the rest of the current, trendy, keep Hip Hope alive type of cats....IF? it ever works out that we get to obtain Rock's project, this will be re-released in it's intended format.

Enjoy.

Share it w/ ya friends.

Dislike it.

Throw it directly into your deleted items.

It's free either way.
