Cincy isn't my hometown, current adopted home .
But that's a cool story. I've been going to shows for forever too . What was Scribble Jam?
Scribble Jam was a gathering of all the elements of hip-hop: emceeing, deejaying, graffiti, and breaking. There were shows/performances plus battles. Eminem used to battle there before he got famous.
Also, you should check out Cincy's own Mr. Dibbs. He is a breaks master and a DJ who loves the really hardcore rock ****. He also DJ'd for Atmosphere for quite a while.
