MySpace "Secret Show" announced: Method Man at Axis tomorrow
If you've logged into MySpace at all in 2006 and bothered to notice the freaky shit they're hyping on the homepage, you already know that along with a daily roster of "Cool New People" (clearly the mean-spirited handiwork of someone in LA), the social-networking juggernaut has also been promoting a national string of Chili's(?)-sponsored "Secret Shows ": Franz Ferdinand in NYC, Jenny Lewis at LA's Hotel Cafe , Yung Joc in Atlanta, and even Slayer and Mastodon in Mormonville . Boston finally gets a "Secret Show" tomorrow night when Method Man hits Axis for a just-announced, free/all-ages show hosted by our favorite "MySpace Bitch " D-Tension (a/k/a one half of joke-rap duo Los Wunder Twins Del Rap ) and featuring such "special guests" as DJ Master Millions , Mighty Mystic , and Termanology . As far as we can tell, you don't have to friend Secret Show to gain entry, you either have to pick up a "guaranteed admission" wristband this afternoon/evening tomorrow morning at 10 AM [ Editor's note: the plan changed after we posted] at Tower Records in Harvard Square (95 Mount Auburn Street, Cambridge, MA 02138, 617-876-3377) or show up real early at Axis tomorrow night for the 10:45 pm show -- admission, they say, is "first come, first served." Speaking of Termanology, here's the new video for the Lawrence-bred emcee's "Watch How It Go Down." Directed by Statik Selektah and shot "over the last four weeks" in Boston, Lawrence, and New York City (Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Harlem, Times Sq, Subways), it's got the self-anointed "Holy Resurrection" rolling in a top-down Mustang, doing the socially conscious thing (i.e. chiding muthafuckers for learning how to shoot before they learn how to aim), and being so excited about his budding success that he actually runs out of a New York bodega waving the recent issue of XXL for the camera and opens to page 92, where he's featured in a recent month's "Show & Prove ." We love the hungry hustle.
