If St. Paul greats are what you're seeking, you've come to the right place. The storied Palace Theatre is set for an open house this Friday from 11:30-1:30 p.m. — complete with a mayoral welcome and a surprise musical guest — and local rap cornerstones Heiruspecs are celebrating a new EP called theskyisfalling as well as their 20-year bandiversary. Why not link the two legends in the latest Palace Theatre session?

In this video, Heiruspecs (rappers Felix and Muad'dib, keyboardist dVRG, bassist Twinkie Jiggles [89.3 The Current host Sean McPherson], drummer Peter Leggett, and gutarist Josh Peterson) perform the title track off theskyisfalling, sizzling and smooth as ever. Muad'dib braves an image-stacked whirlwind of a verse while the band holds it down behind him; the cameras play with focus as the music stays ever-crisp. Check out the Palace's progress while you listen to Heiruspecs' newest.
