We all know that ?uestlove is a badass drummer and producer, but can he spin? And WHAT will he spin? I want to know so bad I am going to have to find out!

Actually I have seen the Roots, three times, but it was in college ten years ago so I guess for some unexplainable reason I can't quite remember...I must have had business calculus on my brain.
So it will be just like new when I get to jam at Neumos Thursday night!

Off the hook
?uestlove was mixing all of the old school favorites. When he brought Slam by Onyx over the top of Blondie, I knew he was the real deal. He denied it on the ride to the hotel, but believe me it happened tonight.
