I shook hands with Rick Ta Life a.k.a. 25 Ta Life show report
How can you not know what Rick ta Life looks like before? haha the guy is famous and everyone knows what he looks like.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.
- Paul Morris, music director at 97.7 HTZ-FM

he is a wild lookin' dude! boycott - do you just not goes to shows much any more, or just not many hardcore shows?
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

I did the same thing when I first saw 25 back in 1998. Saw him "working the merch table" then saw him on stage. You weren't the only one thinking he
was just a merch guy. Also, even back then they had the "flea market" of merch..... I picked up a GG Allin bootleg video.

Good times are always had when 25 ta life rolled through. I waited until the end to buy haterz be damned at the end of say uncle fest in albany, and
they already packed everything, but I asked rick ta life and he dug through all her merch he had for like 5 minutes and took out the cd for me. I
thought that was really cool, he could have just said "No". Yeah but seriously that is the plethora of hardcore flea markets hehas going on there.

and its just tired.. i remember seeing them 5-6 years ago a buncha times and then to see them at hellfest was hilariousssssss. especially since they
went on before badluck13re and thought the crowd was there for them.. hang in ya dreadlocks and call it a day rick..
.. i put the bottle to my head and pulled the trigger for the last time...

i finally saw 25 ta life at the beginning of summer. my brother made me watch that nyhc documentary some three or four years ago. that's what got me
into shows and hardcore. 25 ta life, madball, no redeeming social value, etc. so that show was awesome for me. i was really bummed... they didn't play
hardcore rules.

Damn. i was reading it like it was knew. Then I noticed I made a post in 2004.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.
