FREE Public Transportation To Soundset 09!

Soundset is officially offering a FREE ride to those of you that do not have transportation to Shakopee, MN!

Here’s the deal, Soundset will offer a FREE shuttle service from Mall of America at the North Bus Loop (between Nordstroms and Sears) direct to Canterbury- dropping off at the entrance to the concert site. We will have 2 buses going every half hour starting at 10:00am. Please note, the pick up location is NOT the MOA transit center. Just look for the orange school buses that say Positive Connection & SOUNDSET. The FREE shuttles run every half hour, with the last bus departing Soundset Festival grounds at 9:00PM.

If you have any questions, please email soundset@rhymesayers.com with subject: Transportation.

Soundset After Party Sold Out!

The official Soundset After Party is sold out! Tickets will not be available at the door. There are still $35 General Admission tickets available for the festival so if you don’t have those yet grab ‘em at Ticketmaseter or Fifth Element 2411 Hennepin Ave. S, MPLS, MN 612.377.0044!

For those of you who were able to get after party tickets, we’re pleased to announce that Hip Hop Karaoke NYC is returning to this year’s official Sound Set afterparty! If you weren’t in attendance last year, you missed a legendary HHK session that included Slug taking on the Beastie’s “Paul Revere” & Brother Ali performing the classic Grandmaster Flash song, “The Message”. A handful of people who signed up for a HHK performance were even lucky enough to have Slug & Brother Ali help them along with the lyrics.

With thousands of participants every year, Hip Hop Karaoke NYC is one of the most popular Hip Hop events in New York City. With a hypeman & live dj on-stage to help out, performers are encouraged to step up and pay homage to their favorite classics. HHK sign-up begins at doors and is first come, first served only. Visit www.hiphopkaraokenyc.com for the list of available songs and lyrics (RSE songs to be added!). Don’t miss ‘your chance to rhyme’ at the official SoundSet 2009 afterparty!
