Saw the movie on Friday night and it didn’t suck. I had a lot of good laughs and that had a lot to do with the group that went to the movie. We crack each other up. The BedStuy parade at the end was moving. Makes us want to dig in the crates… For your enjoyment: Biggie at 17.

I learned about Alice Russell and this song a while ago, but it has been playing in my head lately again. Click here to hear the song: High up on the Hook

Can I stop my hobo wondering days now
I guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry
I seem to notice more and more every day now
you got my heartstrings breathing so right
I hang my coat high up on the hook now
I’ll put my gloves down on the side
and I know that they will still be there when
I get those feelings need to run go hide

I’m getting lost in, with you every day now
or just sitting quietly side by side
climbing towers and getting mystery trains now
making tea and settling down
kites icecreams jumping jumping trampolines now
waking up and I’ll tell you last nights dream
seeing things that no one else has seen now
your pulling on my heart of silk and strings

Can I stop my hobo wondering days now
I guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry
I seem to notice more and more every day now
you got my heartstrings breathing so right
I hang my coat high up on the hook now
I’ll put my gloves down down on the side
and I know that they will still be there when
I get those feelings need to run go hide

That’s right everyone, I was there. As always, the show started incredibly late and there were way to many people on stage distracting from the real action. I took the picture on the left with my cellphone, I wish I had my real camera with me. Questlove was twittering the entire time onstage while tons of doodleheads took up space on stage. I’m glad I was there, even if it was a madhouse.

A number of people showed up like Just Ice and 2/3 of Brand Nubian!

Among other things, I saw the Roots and Erykah Badu last week when I was in Seattle. I’ve seen the Roots many times and will keep coming back for more. They have a TUBA on stage for f*!#’s sake! Please forgive my crappy little photos, but it’s the best I could do being so far back from stage. Not the same as being right up in the front row at the knitting factory and getting sweated on.
