Christie Z-Pabon, half of the husband/wife team of Tools of War (the other half is Popmaster Fabel, who helped start a pretty interesting discussion of our Kwikstep feature), is throwing a huge series of jams in the parks of NYC this summer which you can find in our Events section.

The New York Times has an interesting write-up about them, giving us a pretty good feeling of what the vibe is. I would love to be able to go to one of them, especially considering that it seems to have attracted some of the fore-fathers of hip-hop.

I also found this quote from Christie to be especially interesting:

“Fabel tells me that in the old days, B-boys wouldn’t use cardboard. That’s just an urban myth.”
