Fashawn & Exile Join Living Legends ‘ The Grouch on ‘How the Grouch Stole Christmas’ December Tour

This winter, The Grouch returns with his highly anticipated annual, “How the Grouch Stole Christmas Tour”. After the overwhelming success of last year’s outing, The Grouch raises the bar by going outside his usual cast of characters, and enlisting a handful of the West Coast’s most promising talents.

This year, the buzz worthy and undeniably dope duo of Fashawn & Exile will kick in the door with the opening duties. Fans will then be treated to a verbal assault delivered by none other than the Bay Area’s own charismatic ambassador, 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! Stacked with goodies and en route to the next city, the tour vehicle may “lose” a few gifts, only to be found by following The Grouch on Twitter (@therealgrouch).

“HTGSC”, in its third year, began humbly in the city of Oakland, CA as a one off show. Word and demand spread and 2008 saw the first “How The Grouch Stole Christmas Tour”. Accompanied by fellow Living Legend, Eligh, along with Paul Dateh and The Bayliens, last year’s tour proved to be a success, leading to its annual occurrence.

The string of robberies is slated to begin on December 2, 2009 in Salt Lake City, UT and finally come to an end in snowy South Lake Tahoe on December 19, 2009.
