Bear the Astronot presents The Grab Bag
May 16, 2008 · The Big Fish Pub · Tempe
“Various rhythms, underground goodies, and assorted flavors.” This Grab Bag bill brings Ryan Poulson and The Skacas together with Bear the Astronot, Lakai, Foreknown Apostolic and Glad2Mecha. The flyer’s mix of reggae, acoustic roots, dub, ska and underground hip-hop makes the series’ eclectic purpose explicit. Bear identifies The Grab Bag as a recurring event he organized through Optimix Prime Productions. A contemporary Eventbrite ticket dates this event to May 16, 2008 and explicitly credits Optimix Prime Productions as host.
