First I just want to thank the Roots, Im from the mil and this was my 10th show, thank you for showin the midwest some yearly love. That being said it was not the strongest set I have seen.

At about 1 hour and 20-30 minutes long it was by far the shortest set I have seen to date. Highlights would be the Thought mess-up on web lol, the mellow my man segues, and also the overall energy. I would like to see some more older ish in the rotation...feel like i hear seed, next move, got me, etc at every show.

Also there was no encore, and seemingly no set closing current chart topping hip-hop mashup 101. Overall a very strange set, very short, and very predictable.

but thank you. i love yall 4 life

p.s. lot harder to get autographs after shows these days...been tryin to get my new years 05 shirt signed for 5 years now LOL
