They really are sumthin' else, huh? I bet they're dope live, not that I'll ever get the chance living here...

But really? How many hip-hop acts are out there that are actually a band? Can't think of any other, come to think of it.

I saw a snippet of Eminem's performance at the Grammies where he performed Lose Yourself with The Roots playing the beat live. Shit was dope, it was almost a whole new song that way.

I had 2 chances to see them last month. The tickets for the show sold out in 10 minutes, so I couldn't get them. And they were doing a free show at MTV, but i had places to go, man I was pissed (still am too).
