Last night was a gooodie at BB Kings with The Roots onstage plus everyone…well, everyone except for a certain scruffy braided-hair guy who had planned a surprise with The Roots to “ball” out, “pop champagne,” and puff a lil’ “day n night,” with all the cool kids onstage. According to him, one excitable security guard messed that one up for the crowd. I’m sure security has a different take on the issue, lol…
But still, it was a great show.
Much love to FWMJ (who is security-guard-proof), Gigi, DJ Ness, DJ Kunal, Amanda Diva the host-tess, Tanya Morgan the openers…..and of course, my right hand Mike Fresh who was in the crowd handling b.i. first and best.
Oh and I loved how Questlove was actually checking his twitters during the show. Amazing : )
UPDATE: here’s a video clip from John Brown (yes, that one) of the aforementioned Jim Jones security squabble….
