NITE OWL PULLS COUP, LANDS SPOT OPENING FOR THE ROOTS
Nite Owl Pulls Coup, Secures Opening Act for The Roots Concert at The Pageant March 22nd
The Residential Counselor at Youth in Need in St. Charles also has been selected for a taping of Charter Communications’ “The Set” March 9th
February 26th, 2007--St. Louis—St. Louis native and Select Records emcee Nite Owl continues his ascent up the hip-hop ledger with two up-coming shows—a live taping of Charter Communications’ “The Set” Friday, March 9th at the Blueberry Hill’s Duck Room and a slot as the official opening act for The Roots concert at The Pageant March 22nd.
The Radio One on-air personality’s appearance for The Set’s taping will include a live ten-piece band (drummer, bassist, keyboardist, guitar player, percussionist, trumpeter, two violinists, two cello players), two back-up singers and a deejay. Kansas City rap artist James Christos is scheduled as special guest.
A celebration is planned before and after the taping, which will run from 10-11 p.m. Some of the areas better deejays have signed on to spin throughout the night, including DJ Needles (from 9-10 p.m.), DJ Enoch (11-11:30), DJ Sno (11:30-12:15) and Nite Owl’s official tour deejay DJ K-Nine (12:15-1:00 a.m.). WHHL-FM Hot 104.1’s Craig Blac of the Hot Morning Show will introduce Nite Owl to the stage.
Duck Room doors open at 8 p.m. Admission for general public is $5.00 and area artists are invited out for a reduced rate. Charter will also conduct a pre-show interview with Nite Owl at 5:30 p.m. The interview footage will be intertwined with the concert footage during the editing phase of the program. Charter plans to air the thirty minute final product April 4th-8th on CCIN-TV, in which Nite Owl will becomes the first hip-hop artist to be featured on the show.
As for The Roots concert at The Pageant, it’s official—as in an official paying gig. Nite Owl submitted a press kit and promotional packet to The Roots’ tour handlers a few weeks ago and they were impressed enough to offer Nite Owl the only opening act invite of the night. Interestingly, both The Roots and Nite Owl are known for their musical inclinations toward live instruments and genre defying stage shows. Doors there open at 7:00 p.m., show starts at 8 and general admission is $25.00.
