As we do this tour, I will updating all of you of what is happening on the road. Here is updates from the first part of the tour as we have begun.

Thurs. March 20th
The Lyricist Lounge feat. Big Daddy Kane, Killah Priest, Bazaar Royale, Cool Nutz, Thorn City Improv, and DJ Spark
Portland, Ore
Berbati's Pan
This show was dope. The only problem was that they were protesting the WAR right around the corner, so there were about 200 police in the street with full riot gear on, and that greatly effected the draw of the show. DJ Spark opened the show with vintage hip-hop set. Up next was the Thorn City Improv which is live band the Chosen, and features MC's Destro, Anaxogorus, Smoke, and a couple of others from Ol Dominion. The set was hot, especially the fact that all of the set is freestyle. Up next was Cool Nutz, and you know that I put it down. The set featured some new material from I Hate Cool Nutz. Up next was DMX's artists Bazaar Royale(Bloodline Records). He has a mix of Rock and Hip-Hop, and his set was filled with energy. I didn't get a chance to catch Killah Priest and Kane, being that I had to head out to Mammoth Lakes, CA.

Fri. March 21st & 22nd
Potluck & Cool Nutz w/ DJ Baby J
La Sierra's
Mammoth Lakes, CA
This show was in the ski community of Mammoth Lakes, CA. It was dope to be up in the mountains and be doing hip-hop. Baby J started the set off with hip-hop classics, and then Potluck hit the stage for a hot set. It was dope to have over 200 people in attendance for hip-hop on the mountain.
Sat. March 22nd
The show continued this night with Baby J opening the night with a hot set on the 12's. Then I hit the stage, and dropped a couple of bombs on the people with classics like 76 Nova and Freq. The people were feeling it. Up next was Potluck who rocked the stage again. The only problem was that we almost got into a fight with some cats over the table that we were going to use for merch, which we had set up 3 hours before the show started. We got it worked out though, and kicked it with the fellows like big players. It was dope to be on the mountain, and the setting was dope.

Sun. March 23rd
Potluck, Cool Nutz, LT The Friendly Traveller, and Guests
Blakes
Berkley, CA
This was in the University district of Berkley, and the club was dope. It was in the basement of a fly eating spot, and it was very underground. The night was opened up by a crewed called Tyrant I think, and they went off the turntables and featured a guy on the trumpet, which was rather unique. They were on some freestyle vibe. Up next was Myself, I did 3 songs, and the crowd was feeling it. This was a show where the people were actually listening to the Lyrics. Up next was Potluck, and they rocked the house with 1 Ton, Baby J, and James Boy on the vocals. The set was high energy. Up next was LT & The Friendly Traveller. They had a very hot set, and were on a real underground hip-hop vibe. But it was dope. The highlight of the evening was standing outside the club, and watch a cat get jumped by 4 cats for snitching on one of them. They beat him under my car, and then chased him across the street from the club, and beat him in the middle of the street. Unfortunately my camera was in the car so I couldn't film it for the Jus Family documentary.

Monday March 24th
Promo Work in The Bay
This day I was off, so I took time to hit up some record stores. I hit Rasputin's in San Lorenzo, Moses Music(Oakland), Durant Square(Oakland), and Rasputins in Berkley. All of these stores were familiar with my music, and all of the Rasputins had product. The Berkley store was sold out of Cool Nutz. That was a good thing. I also met with Frank and Will from Showcase Magazine, and we talked about how we were going to push E-40 Presents "I Hate Cool Nutz". This was a fruitful day, and it was cool to hit some of these stores, and get the word out.

Today is Tuesday March 25th, and we have a show in SF at the Last Days Saloon. I will keep you posted. I am also meeting with 40 today, to discuss the album, and the plan of attack. Be on the lookout. I will be updating this tomorrow or the next day. For all tour dates, log onto JusFamilyRecords.com or Pollstar.com. Holler at a playa.

Tuesday March 25th-Last Days Saloon SF, CA
This is a hip-hop night that they have every Tuesday, and the club was cool. They started the night out with DJ's, and then at about 11pm, they put us on. There was a cool crowd in the house, and I started out the set that featured my boys from Potluck. The crowd was into it, and enjoyed the set. Potluck came up after me, and put it down. After we played, the show featured local favs. Bruva Def, Felonius, and a few other cats. There was also an open mic session during the night that was cool. Overall, it was a cool show, and I enjoyed myself, and after a couple of groups, I went ahead and hit the road for the date on the stop, Salem, Ore

Wednesday March 26th-The House Of Funk Salem, Ore
This was the first night of the Bosko Spring Break Tour, and we were looking forward to Salem. The only problem was that we were on the road, so the promotion for the event wasn't as thorough as it could have been. But as the night went on, the crowd got a little thicker, and we went ahead and kicked it off, after DJ Sub provided the them music. Potluck was up first, and gave a high energy perfromance, that pleased the crowd. Up next was the Jus Family Goon Sqwad feat. Cool Nutz, Bosko, Maniac Lok, and Brotha Luv. We went through a set that featured Brotha Luv's new song "What You Talkin Bout", Maniac Lok "My Heata", DBA classics "Shiesty Cats", "All I Know", "Walktadis, and then we went into some other classics Cool Nutz & Bosko "Party Don't Start", and Cool Nutz "76 Nova". Even though the crowd wasn't what we expected, everyone in attendance had a good time, and was enjoying themselves. One love to the homie Cantankerous for coming out, and also the special performance from Saia aka The Lady Pimp.

Thursday March 27th The Red Sea Portland, Ore
This was the second show on the Bosko Spring Break TOur, and I tell you, it was off the hook. The night was kicked off by DJ Chill on the wheels, and he had the party jumpin. As the night got going, Potluck took the stage, and rocked the house again. The crowd was feeling them with their down south style of Humboldt hip-hop. After another set from Chill, the man of the hour took the stage with The Reparations Band. Bosko played such favorites as "More Bounce", "Dance Floor", and "Computer Love". You already know that he is the master of the Talkbox, so you know if was off the hook. The crowd was going crazy, as Bosko showed them some true talent with his singing, and Talkbox skills. I can't wait to hear the solo album. Then we went into a few classics from the DBA album that got the crowd even more riled up. After this Bosko went back into somemore live entertainment with "Luv" from Music Soulchild, and the crowd was feeling it. After that, we turned it back over to Chill, and we partied into the later hours of the night. It was some REAL FINE ladies in their as well. One love to Blaze for providing the stretch limos for the night as well. It was some Boss shit.

Tonite we will be in Walla Walla, Wa at Rosita's for the last night of the Bosko Spring Break Tour. We will continue on to Montana from Walla Walla, and into Wyoming and Colorado.

Friday March 28th Club Rosita's Walla Walla, WA

We arrived in Walla Walla at about 11:30pm that night. We were getting ready for the rest of the tour, and were running behind schedule. We arrived at the club, and it was cracking when we arrived. The night started off with Tri-Cities own J-Rodd & Big Wilson featuring Shaolin. They went through a set that featured some of their new material, and Shaolin broke out with new material from his new album. J-Rodd & Big Wilson blew up that spot, and Shaolin brought out some of his new heat that was produced by Bosko and Big Squeeze. After that we turned it over to DJ Regualtor for a short set, and the Bosko, Maniac Lok, and myslef hit the stage. The crowd was feeling it, and we had the dancefloor poppin. We ran through a set that featured some crowd favorites. The only problem was that the sound kept cutting out, but aside from that it was a hot show. Walla Walla is always good spot to hit. Now we are off to the next city.

Sat. March 29th Zebra Lounge Bozeman Montana

This was about a 9hr drive from Walla Walla, and niggaz was tired. This show tonite featured Filth & Foul from Bozeman, my boy Matt from Seattle, and my dudes Potluck. Filth & Foul started the show out with a set that lasted over an hour, and featured a stripper on stage during the set. After that it was socially conscious set from Matt. Up next was Potluck, who has been rocking every show that we have been doing. Make sure that you grab their album if you can. I went on last with Maniac Lok, and of course we did our thing with another hot set. There wasn't really much to do after the show, so we called it a night, and turned it in. The show was good, and we are continuing the spread the Jus Family gospel.

Sun March. 30th The Lone Wolf Saloon Big Sky, Montana

This show is at a new club on the mountain in Big Sky, right at the base of the moutain. They feature some great food as well, and 1 Ton from Potluck challenged the cook to brew up some special Hot Wings. Well 1 Ton wasn't disappointed and rated the wings a 10. I had to say that his nose was running, and his eyes were watering. The show tonite, again featured Foul & Filth, who went through there classic 1 hour set, and then up next was Potluck, who again put on a great show. I took the stage last, and ran through a 30 min set with Maniac Lok. As I finished the set, the club owner wanted me to contiue, since the patrons of the club were having such a good time. So I gladly obliged, and went to rock for another 45 mins, and did such classics as "What I'm About", "Party Don't Start", and more. When I finished with "Walktadis", the people were going crazy, and the dancefloor was packed. It was a great show, and it was good to touch a new spot. This was the first night that we started the Jus Family Records(Us) vs. Lost Koast Productions(Potluck) PS2 tournament in NBA Live 2003 & Madden. It is sad to say that we whooped their ass, and are continuing on to the next city where we will whoop more ass. The tour is going well, and we are on our way to Billing's Montana.

Mon. March 31st Billing's Montana Off Day

We arrived in Billing's a day early, and were suprised to see that this is pretty large city. We went by The Carlin, which is where we are playing at, and this club is dope. It is decorated in some LA style decor. We are looking forward to playing here tomorrow. The people at the club also let me know that there are alot of Cool Nutz fans out here, and they didn't know that that many people knew about us out here. I hope that that carries over to the show tomorrow. We also continued the PS 2 comp, which also became a domino competition as well, and Jus Family is up 20-9 with these guys. It was also sad, because they were talking so much shit about what they were going to do. We shall see if the tide turns for these guys. I will keep you posted on what happens on the next day. Stay tuned guys.

@ Crytical

Thanks for the support homie. You know we gone keep it coming.

Tues. April 1st The Carlin Billings Montana
This has to be one of the dopest clubs that I have been to in a long time. The club is on some LA shit, and is definitely something that you wouldn't expect to see in Billings. Billings is actually a pretty big city, and has alot more then we thought would be here. The show started off with my dudes Filth & Foul from Bozeman, who did a hot set of original 406 hip-hop. They work very hard out here to make shit happen, and currently have an album out. They are one of the few groups out here holding it down for Montana. After them was Potluck, who again rocked the house with 1 Ton, Underrated, and James Boy on vocals. up next was Cool Nutz & Maniac Lok. We put another good set down, and the people felt what we were doing. All of us sold records after the show, and the people were real happy with the show. I got a little fucked up, due to the fact that the waitress kept bringing us endless glasses of that Henny. All in all it was a good show, and we all enjoyed ourselves. They also had posted on the 15th floor of the Sheraton Hotel in downtown Billings like real players. I will keep you posted on everything. Holler at your boy.

Fri. April 4th The Mangy Moose Jackson, WY
This club is in the Ski resort city of Jackson Hole, WY, and I was told about it by my homeboy Pete Miser, who's 5 Fingers of Funk had been killin this region. The club is dope, and has a great feel, as well as sound system. This night was only us and Potluck, and again we rocked it. After we did our thang, Potluck & Maniac had an aftershow smoke session with some of the locals. They had some bomb out there I must say.

Sat. April 5th Bad Day
I was alerted this morning that one of my best friends was killed last night, and was unable to make the rest of the tour. I drove all the way from Jackson, WY to Portland, OR, just to have to bury one of my best friends. This has been a very hard week, but we will keep it moving.

RIP Jason "Jay 9" Eyle-You will be greatly missed.
