You're familiar with the Wu Tang Clan, we presume? Yeah? Meet the Ru Tang clan. Okay, that's not the name these ladies are going by, but it seems like a fitting enough handle seeing as how our own Ru Johnson is helping put together this very special show at the Walnut Room this Saturday, January 22. Ready for this? It's an all-female tribute show to the Wu Tang clan, in which nine local ladies will be performing Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Tickets for the show, which we're presenting with Hip-Hop Covers, are $5 in advance and $7 day of the show. Click through for a list of who's playing who.
