Land of Mines.
Giving you the music a day early:
Two local heavy rock acts are joining forces at Downtown Music for a Benefit for Maddie, a 4-year-old girl who lives in Pine Bluff and has been diagnosed with brain cancer. Presented by Leg Up Promotions, the music is from the pride of Osceola, Finding Jimmy Hoffa, a five piece concerned with creating hard-charging slices of heavy rock-flavored Southern grunge, and Land of Mines, a Little Rock heavy rock act. The music starts at 8 p.m. with a $5 cover.
Cornerstone Pub will be ground zero for hip hop in central Arkansas with a Rep Tha Roc Rite Nite, featuring the music of Klean Kut Records, Down South and Dirty, Itz Twizt, Player Tim, Mike Streezy, 4X4 Crew, Parker Brothers, Mr. Big Shae and AG, Big Drew and North Rock. It’s also DP of the Parker Brothers birthday so there’s another reason to party. Doors open at 9 p.m., and the music starts at 10 p.m. for the 21-and-up event.
It’s been 10 years coming, but DJ Chaos will re-enter the halls of Discovery to face off against friend/nemesis and one-time resident counterpart DJ Big Brown. Chaos is moving to Colorado, and the event is billed as Bittersweet. The two DJs once battled each other week in and week out for the supremacy of central Arkansas dancefloors, but are facing off for the last time, arming themselves with their favorite electro, trance, breaks and house tracks. Opening the show will be turntable master Bobby Kuta. The music will last from 9 p.m. to around 5 a.m., and along with DJs Chaos and Big Brown, the night features DJ G-Force in the Lobby, and DJ Kourtney Van Wells and Whitney Paige in the Theater.
