Boxing Day

twenty past ten at night

So for Boxing Day, I go up to Orfus Road to see what all the fuss is about (the fuss is about nothing, but that's not the point).  I go into one of the stores and who should I find working there?  Jason Chips from Crash, and the same young fellow who gave me my biggest ovation at the 4 for 4 party for my hip hop set.  All of the stores along Orfus Road had huge sound systems pumping music and barker-style "step right up"s out to the street, and after a few minutes of "hey man!", I was asked if I would go on the mic and freestyle.  I'm never one to turn down an opportunity to perform, so out goes my voice to the entire Orfus Road Boxing Day crowd, freestyling about how cold it is.  I say good bye to everyone and walk down the street with "That's right, ladies and gentleman!  One time only, exclusive Sean Ward live freestyle!" booming out behind me the whole walk up the street.
