quite a few of us were disappointed you couldn't make it - but the W.O.M. tour should be on point! Dove ~Sheepish Lordess of Chaos~

I was first exposed to you from OKP and as I had a surplus of money, was in line the day the Platform dropped. Open minded as ever and you guys completely blew me away.
And that skit in between Ear Drums Pop and Years In The Making with the radio DJ had me trippin. It was late by the time I came to that point and I heard the intonation in the voice, and the pattern was all too familiar, so I'm like, "nah, forget it, you're making it up." Had to hear it about 10 times before I would actually believe myself that I was hearing my own language spoken. Woohoo! That just won me over a hundred percent. I don't know if you'll even come back to this but I have to know who that other guy was.
I would've loved seeing you in Seattle, too bad y'all didn't make it. Catch you next time though, for sure. And the tour will be the ish, I know it.

Complain about an all ages show for only $5.00. 5. Be Thickness 4. If you're D'Angelo, never wear drawers so he has to see your ass more than any hetrosexual man would ever want to. 3. Stand there like a zombie at his shows. 2. Steal his wooden drumsticks and replace them with turkey drumsticks.
And the number one way to piss ?uestlove off......... 1. Four words: Doug is a puta!

"Escuchela la ciudad respirando" "So much on my mind I just can't recline Blastin holes in the night til she bled sunshine. Breathe in, inhale vapors from bright stars that shine. Breathe out, weed smoke retrace the skyline.Yo don't the bass ride out like an ancient mating call.I can't take it y'all, I can feel the city breathin.Chest heavin, against the flesh of the evening.Sigh before we die like the last train leaving."--Black Star "Respiration"
I've been listening to you guys for a while now. Mostly due to my west coast connect since its hard for me to hear in NY. But, your LP is tight. I'm still bumping it right now in my walkman. I need to see another show though.

I picked up yo joint about three weeks ago and it's in HEAVY rotation with me (I have it at the gig as I type this). I really like your vibe, keep it up.
Your sound is representive of old school Hip Hop and I'm a old head. I prefer one DJ and MC's to various sounds and themes that is so popular these days. Tell Babu that he's appreciated.
