Snoop Dog!

OK, I know the entire blog has been about rock music but classic rap never hurt anyone. It was last Saturday night, I went to a party at Ciprianis on Wall street to celebrate the rookies of the NFL draft pick. I hesitated at first, but looking back I am happy I went. When I got there, there was tight security at the front door and once inside, you were not allowed to renter. The place was magnificent and then people were dressed in fabulous cocktail attire. Instantly, I went to the bar and got myself a cocktail. After some socializing with the athletes and perusing the buffet tables, the DJ got on the microphone and announced that there was a special guest. All of a sudden, the light cut out and when they turned back on, Snoop Dog was on stage with three dancers singing all his hits. This night had just gotten a whole lot better. The crowd was dancing and singing his songs, it was such a blast. The night was filled with an abundant of free food and drinks, and a free concert by a rap legend; you can't beat that.
