Band at 3 months old 3rd performance
Filmed on September 6th, 2008.They are tight! Tight! TIGHT! On this performance. This tune has been dropped from their play list 'cause it's obviously low for Courtney's voice. She still did a great job of getting them words out in this register. They performed this at their last show as The Pop Rocks at Seven Springs in October. it was a stroll down memory lane but don't expect to see them play this anytime soon. It shall now lay to sleep in history. That was fun! Glad we have this video.

HIP-HOP LEGEND, KANGOL KID of UTFO VISITS "LAZY LESTER LEON"
Old-school hip-hop artist Kangol Kid came to town not to headline a concert, but to pop in on some elementary school kids.He did see a show in the process. Kangol Kid visited the Davis Street 21st Century Magnet School Wednesday night to watch the original production Lazy Lester Leon. Written and directed exclusively for the Davis School by Sharece Sellem, the show takes the audience on a musical journey through history. The musical tells the story of Lester, an elementary student who develops bad habits from his new friends at school. He begins to dislike playing the trumpet. He starts to do poorly in school. He is grounded by his mother, who sends him to his room. There, Lester falls deep into a musical reverie that leads him to meet musical greats like Mozart, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. They inspire him to work hard and resist peer pressure. Kangol Kid, who lives in New York, has been making his own mark on musical history. His Untouchable Force Organization (UTFO) was a popular hip-hop group from the 80s. WHERE THIS ARTICLE CAN BE FOUND: www.newhavenindependent.org
