Where: Wolstein Center, Cleveland, OH

From Rebecca:
“Ain’t nuthin’ like an old-school par-tay, par-tay: With Salt-n-Pepa’s sass at the helm, Rob Base, Kurtis Blow, Doug E. Fresh, and Whodini take hip-hop way back to the days when putting on a good show wasn’t an option, it was a requirement. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to show off your Cabbage Patch and Roger Rabbit(and here’s betting Doug E. Fresh will even break out the Dougie), this show is it.”
