music
In the language of love, De La Soul means "from the soul." This hip-hop group includes Vincent Mason Jr. ("Mase"); David Jolicoeur, ("Trugoy" or "yogurt" spelled backward); and Kevin Mercer ("Posdnudos" or "Pos"). Some of you listened to Soul in high school, or in college. Now they're coming to the McDonald Theatre, proving that anytime's a good time for a little socially conscious soul. See Monday Calendar.
