Anarchy Tour Diary #7: Escape from (South Central) L.A.

Track our ongoing, exclusive series starring James Christos, PL and Jamel Rockwell here.

Christos: What up KC?!!! Last time I wrote we were in LA. We’re in Phoenix now. But I’m gonna give you a rundown of what happened when we were in LA. We’ll just call this entry “Escape from LA“.

As soon as we arrived in town we turned the news on only to see Michael Jackson being rushed to the hospital by ambulance. A few hours later he was pronounced dead. That immediately killed the whole excitement of being in Hollywood. Still we pressed on and got ready for the show that night.

We were scheduled to perform at a Spot Called Planet Blowed. So we’re driving looking for the spot, and the neighborhood’s landscape started to shift. I wasn’t quite sure what area we were in but I knew it wasn’t Hollywood (or the glamorous part of LA). So I called my uncle (the one that was supposed to be driving for the tour), and told him we were in Lameirt Park. He was like, “Oh you’re in South Central.”
