[DID NOT ATTEND: October 9, 2026] DJ Shadow: 30 years of Endtroducing / Prince Paul
30 years ago I bought Endtroducing and was blown away. It never would have occurred to me to go see DJ Shadow (or any DJ) live. But after reading some hugely complementary reviews of DJ Shadow’s live show, I was really interested in going. The Entroducing album is fantastic and as I understand it, DJ Shadow’s show is an amazing visual feast.
But I was feeling pretty beat today. I had originally thought I might go to a Free at Noon AND this show, but I wound up not going to either. The thought of trying to deal with Franklin Music Hall on a Friday night was just too much for me to deal with,.
And that’s fine. Some shows are more worthy of hitting.
I don’t really know what Prince Paul did. I guess he DJ’d as well. His set list is a series of hip hop classics. Did he just play them? Did he rap over them? No idea.
