One of First Fillmore Performances Leaked

The official announcement of the Silver Spring Fillmore's initial slate of shows is still set for this Friday, but here's one that has been unofficially announced, per the Baltimore Sun:

"Black Star - Mos Def and Talib Kweli - are touring again. The duo will perform at the Fillmore, the new Live Nation venue in Silver Spring, September 18, just around the time the spiffy theater opens."

I bet there will be a Tone Loc show in the first year.

First of many comments from folks who don't realize that this show will probably kick a**.

It didn't leak, exactly. It was part of a larger tour announcement from the band's management, it appears.

Pretty good start. Hope this actually takes off and Downtown Silver Spring can finally BEGIN to have the start of a moderately decent nightlife.

From Wikipedia - At Fillmore East is a double live album by The Allman Brothers Band. The band's breakthrough success, At Fillmore East was released in July 1971. It ranks Number 49 among Rolling Stone magazine’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time[1] and remains among the top-selling albums in the band’s catalogue. It is often cited as being one of the most well-known live recordings in history.

I don't care what you all think. This is the group I'm holding out for.
