Any predictions on what their set list will look like Saturday night? I've really enjoyed their last two albums, so I'm hoping they play a good amount of new stuff.

No. I just hope to hear Datskat.

Haha, oh yeah the Roots are playing.
Obviously we have no way of knowing what they're going to play, but if you look them up on setlist.fm you'll probably get a pretty good idea of what material they have worked out for their current tour.

I'll be at this set in spite of the fact that I really, really don't like the Roots.

Late last year they were playing 2+ hour sets. I can see them definitely going beyond their 90 minute slot, and I'll be there for every minute of it. The Roots aren't #1 on my must see list this year because the lineup is so stacked, but I'm way beyond excited to see them. I hate most rap groups these days but these guys are amazing.

Hope they play a bunch from How I Got Over, Undun, and Phrenology.

Their albums make me cringe every single time one of them comes up, and they spend five nights a week with Jimmy Fallon. But I hear they have a sousaphone player.

I'm weary of the Jimmy Fallon exposure as well.

It definitely exhibits a pretty serious lack of artistic integrity.

I can honestly say I couldn't name a single Roots song. I'm sure I've heard them, but I can't think of anything by them.

How I Got Over is very, very good. I like all of their albums but that one is probably my favorite.

I listened to a bit of that, and now I'm listening to "How I Got Over." They're actually pretty decent. Nothing I would regularly listen to, but this will probably be one hell of a funky late night set. Pea stamp of approval.
