Rock & Bowl the Recap

Rock & Bowl

Wow were do I start, it was an all around rocking night from start to finish. I must definitely give a round of applause to all the performers that night. Malik Yoba, Malene, Man on Earth, and GAME REBELLION. All these performers played there asses off that night. But lets recap form the beginning. One of the buzzing questions before the evening even started and really from the minute we announced that he( Malik Yoba) was performing, everyone was asking "what is he going to do? ". Well folks he came, we saw and he delivered. As a relative beginner to the performing scene Mr Yoba really showed us he had a little hidden talent within him. He really came to Brooklyn Bowl and showed us that he can sing. The Block Assoc. alongside Breakfast Club Socials Would like to congratulate and thank him for coming thru.

The M Reporter Al & Malik Yoba

Now on to Ms Malene looking like a super hero in her leopard print cat suit and red pumps. She came to save our minds, hearts and souls. Malene brought the house down worth her eclectic style of sing rap. It was a sight to see here in person as beautiful as she was, her music was even more beautiful and powerful. The message of freeing your mind was definitely bestowed upon us by her that night.

MALENE

The surprise of the night was the no name band that was brought in the man with the gray beard Frei. Man on Earth, I must say this band won me and the crowd over by the end of there set. At first it was a little dry spot in there performance and we were like they music sounds good but we just ain't feeling you. But when lead singer Alex Polaris started to work the crowd we all in the building welcomed them with open arms. By the end of there show they had all the females on stage taking in part of the madness that they were bringing to Rock & Bowl.

MAN ON EARTH

The main attraction of the night was the last but the well worth the wait. GAME REBELLION,what is there not to say about them. Game killed it from start to finish, from the rotta to the tootta. Whatever you want to call it they rocked Brooklyn Bowl that night like no band has ever rocked out. Game came on with a burst of confetti and hit the stage 100mph. They went thru a rendition of songs that had everyone of the floor but I mean literally because as soon as they started to hit a fever pitch a mosh pit started to form and the blows were coming from left and right. It was a sight to see well my first matter a fact. At one point in there act they split the crowd into two and had them singing along with self titled track named GAME REBELLION. Wow is all i have to say seeing how they mastered the crowd and got everyone interactive with there set. Lead vocalist Nectic was all over the place on top of exits to in the crowd banging on drums. Yohimbe lead guitarist had some type of ostrich feathers on his back . It was a show that a must have to see. Game really showed there ass off that night.

GAME REBELLION

Rock & Bowl was and overall success but don't think it will stop there we have more in store for you the people for the summer of 2010. keep a look out for the acts that we will be bringing to Brooklyn Bowl. Also with memeorial day coming up the Blcok has your weekend planned already with the Holiday Inn on May 30th. Keep look out for adv. tickets coming soon.
