Thanks to Soul Sides for pointing this out. The Coup and Mr. Lif, on tour together, were involved in a near-fatal bus crash outside of San Diego. The bus flipped over and burst into flames.
Boots Riley of the Coup is asking fans for help in the form of donations on the group’s MySpace page. I’m trying to put together a possible auction of some goodies to help the effort. More on that soon.
Do yourself a favor and check out some tracks, purchase their albums and help them get back on their feet.
