Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

The Droids You're Looking For

Do not underestimate the power of the Force. Or, for that matter, the kickass hip-hop stylings of Jedi Mind Tricks. Blessed with lightsaber-sharp wit and Skywalker-esque acrobatic flow, this duo may in fact come from a galaxy far, far away. Or Philly. Plus, you’ve gotta love any band whose PR bio consists solely of quotes from the late, great Sith Lord of comedy, Bill Hicks. The Force will be with them — and also with you — on Wednesday, September 9, when JMT storm the Higher Ground Ballroom with fellow hip-hop troopers MC Esoteric, Reef the Lost Cause and Bound By Honor.
