On Saturday, May 10th, 2008 Rhyme Calisthenics: Pittsburgh's Official MC Competition & Game Show returns to the Shadow Lounge in East Liberty for its third installation.

Rhyme Calisthenics is back to once again test the versatility and improvisational prowess of Pittsburgh's realest and bravest MC's, rappers, freestylists and spoken word artists.

Challengers spin the Wheel of Skillz, our six-foot game show wheel with 12 different MC challenges.

Come watch your favorite Pittsburgh MC's spin the Wheel of Skillz and perform challenges like Battle, Acapella, Mackin', Crowd Topics and many more.

And MC's bring your entourage because the crowd is the judge.

The Grand Prize is $300 plus studio time at Ya Momz House Studio and gift certificates from our sponsors 720 Records, Time Bomb Spot and Natural Choice Barber Shop.

Rappers and MC's can register by contacting myspace.com/rhymecal or just sign up at the door. For more information email jbrownsound@gmail.com
