Rob Base wants to rock right now, still 

This long weekend, dust off your Cancon

So it's a long weekend, and Canada Day is an especially reminiscent time, likely helped by classic rock hits like "Patio Lanterns" or "Summer of '69." This Canada Day in particular we invite you to head to the Red Fox for national hip-hop icon Rob Base, and let this wise rap be your long weekend jam:

Ladies love me, girls adore me
I mean even the ones who never saw me
Like the way that I rhyme at a show

The reason why, man, I don't know
So let's go, cause

It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!


w/DJ Kev-Ski, Kyle Rifken, DJ Loonie Toonez & Plaeboi and DJ Lance Saturday June 30, Red Fox Tavern, 7071 Bayers Road, $25, 10pm
