If you missed it, Joe (NatasK) and myself (Amanda) both ran in the Miles Against Melanoma 5K in Pittsburgh this past Saturday- this 5K raised awareness and benefited Melanoma research, and was very near and dear to me since it was also in memory of my father (who I lost to Melanoma a couple years ago). The event turn-out was AMAZING, especially thanks to my sister Jessica who organized it! Both Joe and myself got great times in overall competition as well as in our individual age brackets, had a great time, and met some really amazing people. We want to share more inspiration for our healthy lifestyles and fitness passions with you guys, so be on the look out….. and check out this great photo of your bass-smasher NatasK gettin’ his grind on during the race–

Tonight’s boom with ROOTS COLLIDER

TONIGHT!!!!!

Get down to the Crooked I on the main drag in downtown Erie at 1013 State Street for a sure-fire slammin’, bangin’, hip-hoppin’ funky FRESH Friday night…. NatasK is opening up for world-wide Electro/DnB/Funk/Reggae masters ROOTS COLLIDER

They’ve cut it up at the Crooked I before, and now they’re back- do not miss this epic night! A few words on R.C.

“The future fab four is dedicated to bringing the listener only the freshest cuts of live original punishing Drum & Bass, crushing Dubstep, destructive Electro-Rock, and fresh Future-Funk, with the rude-boy elements of the most crucial Dub Reggae. The act’s sole purpose is to collide these roots genres into a single unstoppable aesthetic force, and they are known as one of the last definitive almost completely analogue defenses against the digital 21st Century.

Roots Collider has been described as a powerful visceral artistic experience for the mind, body, and soul. The band has quickly become regional favorites for so many and has gained wide recognition by sweeping upstate NY off of it’s feet as one of the fastest growing live original acts from Rochester, NY.”

Come out to rage with all of us, grab some drinks to cool down in this official summertime HEAT, and cut some rug to the best music in town! I’ll be streaming the night live on uStream through our channel– you know the drill, find the link through the BassBlogTV page at the top of your screen!
