Mic Check - an event that showcased local San Diego artist had to shuts its doors due to a violent incident that occured on September 15th.
This is the report from the local news

Bob Dare, a group of 20 to 25 people were standing outside the Shamrock Shack Bar waiting to go in, when a man approached them and then opened fire with a handgun.The shooter fled in a silver Toyota Land Cruiser and was described as Black, 5 feet 7 inches tall, and weighing approximately 145 pounds. He was wearing a black pull over sweatshirt with yellow writing and a T-shirt underneath, Dare said.
This is the statement from Big Daddy, one of the promoters of Mic Check
DUE TO THE INCIDENT LAST NITE @ MIC CHECK...WE HAVE DECIDED TO CLOSE THE DOORS FULL TIME ON THE PRODUCTION OF MIC CHECK. WE AS PROMOTERS & ARTISTS HAVE ALL HELPED EACH OTHER DURING THE PAST 8 MONTHS TO PROVIDE A SAFE PLACE FOR ALL ARTISTS OF ALL RACES TO PERFORM AT. UNFORTUNATELY SOME DON'T AGREE WITH WHAT YOU AS ARTISTS ARE TRYING TO ACHIEVE. WE ONLY WANTED EVERYONE TO LIVE THE DREAM & MAYBE GETTING SIGNED.
IN ALL MY YEARS BEING INVOLVED IN MUSIC, IVE SEEN ARTISTS COME & GO..DURING THESE PAST MONTHS THE SCENE OF SAN DIEGO MUSIC HAS THRIVED & WAS UPLIFTED BY CERTAIN PRODUCTIONS IN HELPING THE MUSIC SCENE REACH A CERTAIN LEVEL. FROM NETWORKS URBAN LEGEND GET DOWN TO OUR MIC CHECKS, THESE WERE THE AVENUES THAT NO OTHER PROMOTER DARED TOUCH BECAUSE OF THE CONSEQUENCES IT MAY BRING.
SO NOW WHAT DO WE DO, WHERE DO WE PERFORM, WHERE DO WE GO FOR A SHOW THAT IS SAFE. THE ANSWER WE ALREADY NOW, NO WHERE. ITS JUST NOT SAFE NO MATTER WHERE WE DO ANY PRODUCTION. WHY? ASK YOUR NEIGHBOR IF YOU DONT KNOW THE ANSWER. PROMOTERS DONT EVEN WANT TO HELP WITH ANY LOCAL ARTISTS.
NETWORK, MYSELF, PHAT DOK & OTHERS HAVE TOOK THAT CHALLENGE TO TRY & PROMOTE EACH & EVERYONE OF YOU. WE CAN ONLY THANK ALL THE ARTISTS THAT HAVE SUPPORTED US AS PROMOTERS IN HELPING KEEP SD RAP & HIP HOP ALIVE. LIKE ALL GOOD THINGS IT MUST COME TO AN END. DONT STOP YOUR DREAM, KEEP MAKING THE GOOD MUSIC YOUVE BEEN & HOPEFULLY ONE DAY WE CAN ALL JUST GET TOGETHER THRU MUSIC & ONLY MUSIC...1 LOVE TO ALL OF YALL: BIG DADDY...
So basically this whole things sucks for everybody and some negative elements have succeeded in shutting down a positive event.
