Public Enemy w/Ghostface Killah
It may be difficult to remember the days when Public Enemy was a real Hip Hop threat. Their present day menace may very well be skewed by visions of member Flava Flav's recent escapades with reality television, but I assure you this is the Flava you will love. Also featuring Wu-Tang Clan's Ghostface Killah this blast from the past is sure to be both an old and a goody.

You may run into one of Graeff's many celebrity collectors at his opening on Saturday, fully equiped with DJ and drinks.
