Snoop Dogg coming to SXSW for Perez party
That’s right. Perez Hilton has just announced that the Doggfather will be playing his party on Saturday at a warehouse at 3rd and Brazos Streets.
Rumors were also rampant that Snoop Dogg will make a stop at MTV’s soundstage at the former Seaholm Power Plant and perform with Gorillaz, who will be headlining at Coachella next month. Snoop is a guest on Gorillaz new album “Plastic Beach,” but it’s unlikely the G-men would be in Austin. Damon Albarn debuts the new live band in England on March 21, the day after SXSW. That’s jetlag, innit?
Earlier today, Simon Cowell’s likely replacement on “American Idol” confirmed that Marina and the Diamonds and Alphabeat are also playing his party, which is sponsored by Swagg.

If you’ve never been to a real Snoop Dogg gig, here’s what happens: Snoop Dogg shows up an hour late, sends his backup singers and djs on stage, then finally Snoop Dogg will “rap” for 30 minutes, then leave. If that’s all he does at professional gigs, how weak is a party set going to be?

I agree…I have seen Snoop Dogg several times and he does NOT put on that good of a show. Don’t get me wrong Snoop is the man, but Boo nailed this one!
