Living Legends member The Grouch is already on the road on his annual "How the Grouch Stole Christmas Tour", following the overwhelming success of last year's outing.
This year, the rapper raised the bar by going outside his usual cast of characters and enlisting some of the West Coast's most promising young talents ... in Mistah FAB, and Fashawn & Exile.
This year, Grouch is making each stop even that more special, as he holds Toys for Tots drives in each city. As an incentive, participants will receive a free gift for bringing a new toy to be donated.
With an overloaded bag full o' goodies and winding tour route, the tour vehicle may "lose" a few gifts along the way. Fans who want to find those "goodies" need to be following The Grouch on Twitter (@therealgrouch) for clues.
Each stop will open with a performance by the duo of Fashawn & Exile, then followed by a verbal assault delivered by none other than the Bay Area's own charismatic prince, Mistah F.A.B. The Grouch, assisted by DJ Fresh, will close the evening, making sure that every heart, mind, and ear in the building has been stolen.
The string of robberies began last Wednesday (December 2n) in Salt Lake City, UT and will finally come to an end in snowy South Lake Tahoe on December 19th.
