No Fiasco, Lupe is Free Tonight
If you jump through a few hoops, you'll get to see young up-and-coming Chicago rap artist Lupe Fiasco tonight for free at the Metro. Lupe thrilled crowds at Intonation this year, and I'm sure you've heard his cool summer jam "Kick, Push" on the radio. His new album Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor hits stores today, perhaps with some never-before-heard content since a large portion of his original album was leaked online. To get the special wristband needed, you have to print out your Myspace.com profile with "Secret Shows" in your top 8 friends list. Bring that printout to Tower Records at 2301 N. Clark today and you'll get your wristband good for the show tonight. Doors open at 7pm, show starts at 8pm and it's all ages. UPDATE: There's something of a fiasco, after all: Lupe's sick. :( Metro says he's still gonna show up, but it's to hang out. There's still a chance he'll rock the mic, but no guarantees.
