San Francisco natives, The Stone Foxes, will be playing on Saturday, May 4th at The Fillmore.

The Regency Ballroom was turned up on Wednesday, April 24th for Flosstradamus’ sold out show. The venue was packed with people hyped up that trap sound the Chicago based DJ duo, Flosstradamus, are so well known for.
When the huge triangular Flosstradamus logo lowered onto the stage the crowd screamed in anticipation and excitement. J2K (Josh Young) and Autobot (Curt Cameruci), the pair better known as Flosstradamus appeared on the stage through the fog and strobe lights. They started their set with “Bugatti” by Ace Hood featuring Rick Ross and Future. The Hoodie Boyz knew how to warm up their crowd.
